The Greatest Hockey Player: Gordie Howe 15.09.2026 36минHe was so good that people just called him Mr. Hockey.

A Unique Currency: New France's Playing Card Money 11.09.2026 19минFor decades, off and on, New France was forced to use a unique style of currency when coins were in short supply.

In 2027, the Bank of Canada will be releasing a new $20 banknote featuring King Charles, the Vimy memorial and more.

Ahead of Its Time: CBC's The Odyssey 11.08.2026 30минChristopher Nolan's The Odyssey may be a hit movie in 2026, but for me The Odyssey I loved was one made by CBC in the early 1990s.

Introducing "Hostile History" 22.05.2026 45минSince the dawn of time, humanity has been at war. Conflict in one form or another has been part of our existence since we first walked the earth. In this first episode of a four-part series, join military historian David Borys as we travel back in time to Iran, where we chart how a modern monarchy, which was armed, wealthy, and globally backed, lost control. On our journey, we'll be helped by historian Roham Alvandi from the London School of Economics and Political Science. While conflict and armed rebellion have evolved to look very differently over the centuries, if you want to understand the world today, you need to go back because history doesn't just repeat itself; it echoes.
