Now here's the good news for everyone who missed it at the festival, where it earned a standing ovation. Tonight at 10 p.m., you can see it on CBC Newsworld, which is airing it as part of a spectacularly ambitious series with the umbrella title Why Democracy?, which will be seen by millions via broadcast partners around the globe.
