On a July night in 2008, a Greyhound bus rolled across the Canadian prairies, carrying strangers and their quiet dreams. But somewhere between small towns and sleeping fields, one of the passengers, 40 year old Vincent Li, began to hear voices in his head. That was when he decided to stand up, relocate to an empty seat beside another passenger, and brutally stab him in the neck and chest.
Part 1 - We trace the background of Vincent Li, following his journey from his initial migration to Canada, and the struggles he faced that led him to that fateful ride on the Greyhound bus.
Part 2 - We follow the horrific events as they transpire, and follow up on the aftermath of one of the most brutal crimes in Canadian history.

In the spring of 2016, the calm waters of Central Vietnam’s Hatin Province transformed into a scene of ecological devastation, with thousands of fish washing ashore belly-up. But what first appeared to be a seasonal fluke quickly escalated into a national crisis as the toxic tide spread across four provinces, poisoning the food chain and even claiming the lives of seasoned divers.
Investigations would uncover severe lapses in safety protocols at a massive steel plant in the area, enabling lethal doses of chemicals to be dumped directly into the sea. But placing accountability proves to be difficult, as the issue is mired behind politics and industrial interests; ultimately resulting in an environmental crisis that may take decades to fully recover.
