A volunteer at a radio station south of the border goes all in on Canada Day by programming twenty-four hours of exclusively Canadian music. 


In a bid to thwart talk of separation, a new petition is asking Albertans if they want to stay in Canada. The former politician behind that push tells us why he's confident the result will go his way.


We'll revisit my interview with the CEO of Metis Crossing in Smokey River, Alberta -- when the wildlife park was celebrating the birth of 7 new bison calves, a century-and-a-half after the last wild bison were seen there.


A cross-border rivalry between the top-ranking jogglers in Canada and the U.S. -- as in, joggers who juggle -- wasn't always a toss-up. 


From our archives, a conversation with the 9-year-old who found the largest maple leaf ever recorded -- which turns out to be a real rake-up call. 


And...the way she gives the cake really takes the cake. Every Canada Day, a baker in one Ontario community makes a cake big enough to feed thousands. We'll talk to her as her massive cake makes the high-stakes journey from the kitchen to the centre of town.


As It Happens, the Tuesday Edition. Radio that knows the thing about a layer cake is it always ends in tiers.
