These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2012-02-27,
and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
by members of Footloose and Firkin Free, but have been reformatted
and may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
correct answers in about 3 days.

For further information, including an explanation of the """ notation
that may appear in these rounds, see my 2021-07-20 companion posting
on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".

* Game 5, Round 1 - Current Events (excerpt)

Answer these 2012 questions if you like for fun, but for no points.

1. Last Friday a coroner opened Australia's fourth inquest into a
notorious and bitterly controversial legal drama: the 1980 death
of a 9-week-old baby. How do the parents explain the death?

2. Researchers have discovered which new type of planet, which
had a movie with the same name?

* Game 5, Round 2 - Canadiana - African-Canadians

In each case, name the well-known African-Canadian from the
description provided.

1. She started her involvement in politics in Montreal in the
late 1960s. She ran for a seat in Parliament twice, losing
both times to David Crombie. In 1984 she was the first
African-Canadian to be appointed to the Senate. Name her.

2. After university she was an elementary-school principal with
the Metropolitan Separate School Board in Toronto. In the 1993
federal election, she became the first African-Canadian woman
elected to the Parliament of Canada and subsequently the first
black woman in a federal cabinet.

3. This Toronto resident """is""" a Member of the Order of Canada
and in 2002 won the Giller Prize for "The Polished Hoe".

4. This writer was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, studied
creative writing at the University of Victoria, and won the
2011 Giller prize for the novel "Half Blood Blues."

5. In the 1996 Olympics, in addition to winning gold in the 100 m
sprint, Donovan Bailey also anchored Canada's 4×100 m relay
team to a gold medal. Name any one of his three *teammates*,
all African-Canadians.

6. This native of Scarborough played for 8 different NHL teams in
a career that ran from 1996 to 2008. He """is""" perhaps best
known for scoring an overtime goal in the gold-medal game for
Canada at the 2003 World Hockey Championships.

7. In the 1980s and 1990s she was lead vocalist for two rock bands,
Alta Moda and Infidels. """Now""" concentrating on jazz, her
2008 release "Lucky" took home the Juno Award for Vocal Jazz
Album of the Year. Since 2008 she """has been""" a host of
Radio 2's "Morning Weekend".

8. Born in 1972, Kevin Brereton is a Canadian rapper, singer,
songwriter, and record producer. His 2002 debut album "Exit"
received much attention both in Canada and internationally.
What """is""" his musical name?

9. In 1968, he was elected to the Canadian House of Commons,
winning a seat for the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada
and becoming Canada's first black Member of Parliament. He held
the seat for four successive elections.

10. He was first elected to the Ontario legislature in 1985
in the suburban Toronto riding of Scarborough North. He was
appointed Minister of Housing, the first African-Canadian to
hold a cabinet-level position in Ontario. What was his name?

* Game 5, Round 3 - Sports - Greatest Upsets

Where a question asks for a team, you need to give enough of the
name to make it unambiguous. For example, "Manchester United",
not "Manchester".

1. Name the NCAA basketball team that was the first to start
5 African-American players and then beat the Kentucky Wildcats
in the 1966 championship game.

2. Which team with Jim Valvano as coach upset the heavily favored
Houston Cougars to win the 1983 NCAA championship?

3. Who was the 45-year heavyweight boxer and griller that came
out of a 20-year retirement to beat Michael Moorer in 1994?

4. Buster Douglas won a huge upset victory against what world
heavyweight champion in Japan in 1990?

5. Which National League underdog team miraculously defeated the
pitching-heavy Baltimore Orioles in the 1969 World Series?

6. In 2010, what 8th-place team rode hot goaltending to beat the
Washington Capitals in the first round of the NHL playoffs?

7. Appalachian State upset which college football powerhouse at
the Big House for perhaps college football's biggest upset?

8. What formerly undefeated horse did Upset beat in 1919 to help
popularize the term?

9. In 1998 which team upset the heavily-favored defending Super Bowl
champion Green Bay Packers? The win was the first by an AFC
team in 14 years and the first for this team in five Super
Bowl appearances.

10. Which AFC team upset the St. Louis Rams' "Greatest Show on Turf"
in the 2002 Super Bowl?

A dingo. Everyone -- Pete, Joshua, Dan Tilque, Dan Blum, and Stephen
-- got this.

The mother was convicted of murder, but evidence supporting her
account was discovered later and the verdict was reversed in 1988,
a decision supported by the 2012 inquest. Also in 1988, the story
was dramatized in the movie "Evil Angels", also titled "A Cry in
the Dark".

In Ontario and some other provinces, Roman Catholics have a
grandfathered right to their own "separate school" system, and
that phrase is the term used for it.
