Tonight:

Identity crisis. We still don't know the name of the officer who may have assaulted a bystander at the G-20 Summit -- but apparently the Toronto Police and the Ontario SIU do.

Making the parents apparent. A B.C. court strikes down a provincial law protecting the anonymity of sperm donors.

The French disconnection. The former head of the IMF is indicted on sex charges -- and much of France feels he's the one who's been wronged.

What they had there was a failure to communicate. The mayor of Slave Lake, Alberta, defends the way news of the fires was delivered.

It's soporific! A new product called "Lazy Cakes" promises to relax consumers -- but it's keeping parents and politicians awake nights.

And...nipping it in the blood. When a Virginia museum puts a hundred-and-thirty-five-year-old smallpox scab on display, its enthusiasm isn't the only thing that's infectious.

As It Happens, the Thursday edition. Radio that knows life is a scab array, old chum.
