9,000 Years Old Structure Under Lake Michigan
Mark Holley, at Northwestern Michigan University, first came across a rock that he said bears a prehistoric carving of a mastodon. On further investigation, he discovered a Stonehenge-like arrangement of ancient stones.
They stand 40 feet below the water’s surface, and the stones are some 9,000 years old, making this one of the oldest structures ever discovered in North America.

ACK. Sending a complaint to the BBC… They've made a major error in their copy here:
Carney revealed it on Friday during his first speech as prime minister when he hearkened back - with a shiny polish - to the origins of this former colony. He hailed "the wonder of a country built on the bedrock of three peoples: indigenous, French and British".
See it?
That should say three peoples: “Indigenous, French and British".
Indigenous should ALWAYS be capitalized when referring to the people who have lived in this country for millennia before colonial powers came.

I have been supportive of talk of Canada joining the EU, but I admit, I feel a little... conflicted.. about this quotable quote from PM Mark Carney today alongside President Macron.
