Spellbound!

In an age of spell-check and auto-correct, many of us have let our spelling skills fall by the wayside. But even if it weren't for the wonders of modern technology, Canada's national spelling bee contestants would still give us a run for our money. This group of 11-14 year olds goes to the mic tonight to compete in the country's ultimate spelling smackdown.

We got a preview from Spelling Night in Canada host Jim Hughson. He's perhaps better known as the Hockey Night in Canada play-by-play guy. But he'll be putting a "spell" on things tonight starting at 8:00 pm on CBC Television.
