3. AS IT HAPPENS:

Tonight on As It Happens...What do you do when fine feathered friends
become a migrating menace? Conservation efforts in the southern United
States have caused the snow goose population to explode in Canada. Every
spring millions of snow geese fly north to Hudson Bay and their feeding
habits are upsetting the delicate ecosystem of the tundra. Scientists say
the population must be cut in half -- or else. Find out more tonight on As
It Happens, with Michael Enright and Barbara Budd at 6:30 (7:00 NT) on CBC
Radio.

4. IDEAS:

Tonight on Ideas...Perfect Machines: Looms. Since the earliest days of
human society, looms have woven not only the clothes on our backs, but the
complex language of cloth itself. Broadcaster Seth Feldman continues his
sporadis series on Perfect Machines with a look at the Loom, tonight on
Ideas at 9:05 (9:35 NT) on CBC Radio.

5. BETWEEN THE COVERS:

Tonight on Between the Covers, more from "Smilla's Sense of Snow" by Peter
Hoeg. Smilla's investigation into the death of a young friend has drawn her
into a tangled web of international scientific intrigue. Now she's on board
a ship with a sinister crew and some dark secrets. That's "Smilla's Sense
of Snow" tonight on Between the Covers, right after the 10 o'clock news
(10:30 NT) on CBC Radio.

TELEVISION

9. MAN ALIVE:

**please note that this program may not be shown at this time in some
locations, or carried on some affiliates. Check local listings.

Tonight on Man Alive, "Nowhere to Live," a portrait of Mexico City. It is
one of the most densely-populated urban areas on the planet, with a
population that exploded from one million to twenty million over just forty
years. Some say it is a preview of urban life in the 21st century -
uncontrollable, unmanageable, where the poor eke out their lives in abject
misery and despair. Man Alive takes you into the slums of Mexico City, to
meet some of the people there and hear their stories. One is a young father
whose dreams of becoming a champion boxer have been pushed aside by the
daily struggle to keep his family from starvation and homelessness. Another
is a single mother of six who lives by the side of a highway. Join Man
Alive's R. H. Thomson for "Nowhere to Live," a portrait of Mexico City
tonight on Man Alive at 7:00 p.m. on CBC Television.

10. WITNESS:

**please note that this program may not be shown at this time in some
locations, or carried on some affiliates. Check local listings.

Tonight on Witness..."A Risky Business." takes a hard look at our
nation-wide gamble on gambling. As governments across Canada embrace
various forms of legal gaming, what was once a very private vice has become
a public virtue. Various levels of government, not to mention local
economies, are becoming increasingly dependent on the revenues from
gambling. But what are the long-term social consequences of this change?
Find out more about "A Risky Business," tonight on Witness at 9:00 p.m. on
CBC Television.

NEWSWORLD

11. FACE OFF:

Tonight on Face Off...The Canadian Labour Congress has been tracking
women's wages across Canada, and they've reached some grim conclusions.
This country is second only to Japan among industrial nations when it comes
to low-paid jobs for women. And according to the CLC, women here are losing
ground as re-structuring undoes much of what they had previously achieved.
Are these complaints fair? Other statistics suggest women have been
steadily narrowing the wage gap, and that the gap shrank even further when
the recession stalled men's wages. A debate about how women are doing in
the workplace, on Face Off, with hosts Judy Rebick and Claire Hoy, tonight
at 8:30 and 12:30 (EASTERN) on CBC Newsworld.

12. PAMELA WALLIN LIVE:

Tonight on Pamela Wallin Live...London is swingin' again. Sixties
spiritualism has resurfaced as New Age. And the Prince of Flower Power is
making a comeback. Folk-rocker Donovan has a new album, courtesy of the
young L.A. producer who's keeping oldies Mick Jagger and Johnny Cash up on
the charts. Also...Gillian Helfgott, whose book about her husband David
inspired the highly-acclaimed movie "Shine." "Love You to Bits and Pieces,"
her story of David's mental breakdown and his triumphant return to the
concert stage 20 years later, is riveting. She's Pam's guest on Pamela
Wallin Live, tonight at 9:00 (EASTERN) on CBC Newsworld.

13. LIVE COVERAGE - ALBERTA ELECTION:

CBC Newsworld offers live coverage of today's provincial election in
Alberta starting at 10:00 p.m. (EASTERN), when the polls close there. The
broadcast, anchored by Bob Chelmick, will be commercial-free. That's the
Alberta election, live starting at 10:00 p.m. (EASTERN) on CBC Newsworld.
