Houthi rebels join Middle East war, Mining critical minerals, Juno Awards Weekend, and more

A new combatant has entered the conflict in the Middle East. The Houthis, Iran-backed rebels who control much of Yemen, have fired ballistic missiles at Israel. Their involvement not only increases the danger, but also threatens to upend another vulnerable global shipping route. 

Also: Around the world, countries are racing to find new supplies of critical minerals. They're the building blocks of renewable energy technology, but also important in advanced weapons. China has a monopoly that countries like the U.S. and Canada are looking to break. The Fifth Estate travelled to Northern Quebec, where residents worry that in the global push to mine these minerals, their rights may be overlooked. 

And: The Juno Awards are being handed out this weekend. The annual celebration of homegrown music is taking place over two nights, and this time there's a record-breaking number of categories. We take you to Hamilton for a look at how Canadian music's biggest night is shaping up. And we'll take a deeper listen to some of the Indigenous artists gaining global popularity as they're featured on a groundbreaking show.

Plus: No Kings protests, NDP leadership candidates make their final pitches to party members, and more.
