"I just couldn't believe they would expect that of a woman at the most vulnerable time of her life," said Bethany Church. Church, who is eight months pregnant, recently moved to the Northwest Territories from Yukon and doesn't yet qualify for N.W.T. health coverage. This is Church's first pregnancy and she was instructed to get to the hospital, so she drove from Tsiigehtchic to Inuvik on Monday. When she got there, the transient centre was full, so a staff member set a cot up for her in another person's room.

A Kazakh official involved in brokering a controversial mining deal for a major Clinton Foundation donor is behind bars for his role in the transaction, undercutting a Clinton campaign fact-check that attempted to dismiss ethical questions about the former president's ties to the lucrative contract. Hillary for America and the Clinton-aligned group Media Matters pushed back on allegations that the Clintons had used their political clout to drum up millions in foundation donations and speaking fees by furthering the financial interests of friends in the wake of Tuesday's publication of Peter Schweizer's Clinton Cash. Schweizer dedicated an entire chapter to a 2005 deal in which Bill Clinton allegedly helped his friend Frank Giustra break into a fiercely competitive uranium market, setting the stage for the high-profile takeover of mining conglomerate Uranium One by Russia.
