5. Nobel Peace Prize-Sheila Watt-Cloutier
If the unfathomable moment really does come to pass, the phone in Sheila Watt-Cloutier's home in Iqaluit will ring next Friday around 4 a.m., and someone in Norwegian-accented English will tell the 53-year-old Inuit leader and climate change activist she is about to become the first Canadian in 50 years to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
