Shooting down shooting up. The federal government announces it's going all the way to the Supreme Court, in an effort to close Vancouver's safe injection site. The realty of the situation. Canada's Competition Bureau says it's time the national Real Estate Association gets real. And, the current intuition: students will be out tuition. After its federal and provincial funding is pulled, it looks like school's nearly out for the First Nations University of Canada.

Aftershocks. Nearly a month after the earthquake in Haiti, the women who survived face an increased threat of violence. "Boy In The Moon"'s place in the sun. Ian Brown wins the Charles Taylor Prize for telling the story of his son Walker -- who can't tell his own story.

As It Happens for Friday, February 5, 2010 * N. Ireland Deal * Buy American * iMussolini * Australian Fire Anniversary * World Debt * Talkback * Bee face recognition

My goodness, McGuinness. There's a new power-sharing deal for Northern Ireland -- and Martin McGuinness explains how it will work. Into the jaws of debt. An economist tells us about the high stakes of the G-7 finance summit --and we're all arrears. The dealing is mutual. We'll talk to International Trade Minister Peter Van Loan about an agreement to ease those controversial "Buy America" restrictions.

We've got the whole Hans and his world. Former U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix would have a lot to tell the U.K.'s Iraq Inquiry -- but he tells us instead. Comedy equals tragedy plus Armando Ianucci. The Oscar-nominated Scottish writer-director of the political satire "In The Loop" shares his view of the inquiry so far. Women and children first. Examining why -- and how -- the Prime Minister intends to put maternal and child health at the top of the G-8 agenda

Swiss miss. Switzerland's Supreme Court reluctantly rules that "Baby Doc" Duvalier can claim millions of dollars -- but its government vows to block the transaction. Shoot first -- answer questions later. The police officer who killed eighteen-year-old Fredy Villanueva appears at a coroner's inquest in Montreal. And...stolen basses. Halifax musicians are especially high-strung when a wave of instrument thefts leaves performers out of a jam.

Short, not sweet. Today, Britain's former international development secretary gave scathing testimony at the Iraq Inquiry -- and tonight, Clare Short answers our inquiries. No longer keeping their stories straight. American military bigwigs decide that "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is on its way out -- which means American soldiers will be, too

Nowhere man. The Supreme Court overturns a lower court decision, and leaves Omar Khadr's fate in the hands of the Canadian government. Much ado about "I do". In a trial that could have repercussions across the U.S., two couples challenge California's ban on same-sex marriage. The sins of the humans shall be visited upon the sun. Sure, we've goofed up the atmosphere -- but we'll fix it by applying a planet-wide layer of sunblock.

"Rye" observations. Adam Gopnik pays tribute to the late J.D. Salinger -- the incredible vanishing author of The Catcher In The Rye. The Blair essentials. Britain's inquiry into the Iraq War prepares for its highest-profile guest: former Prime Minister Tony Blair. Softening a militant stance. A growing consensus that success in Afghanistan may mean negotiating with the Taliban.

The healing and the hurt. A nurse from Newfoundland recounts his wrenching experience tending to those wounded in the earthquake in Haiti. General discontent.

British head-bangers devote themselves to getting heavy metal recognized as an official religion.
