Marc Garneau has made history twice. As the first Canadian to fly to outer space and as the first astronaut elected to the House of Commons. What does this former cabinet minister and space traveler think of that journey? He tells it all in his new book: "A Most Extraordinary Ride: Space, Politics, and the Pursuit of a Canadian Dream." And Marc Garneau joins Steve Paikin to discuss.

On June 25th, 1950, communist North Korea invaded the South. It was the first major military action of the Cold War and one of the first significant tests for the newly formed United Nations. The conflict claimed the lives of more than 2.5 million people and cemented the great power rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union. Yet, the Korean War is largely a forgotten chapter of history.

The inaugural episode of Forgotten War, narrated by Steve Paikin, explores this history through the eyes of someone who lived it: Canadian Korean War veteran Romeo Daley. He fought for over a year in Korea with Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry and was one of the first Canadians sent to a M.A.S.H. unit after being injured by an exploding grenade.

This TVO series was made in partnership with Canada Company.
