    Two Canadians remain on final day of Scripps National Spelling Bee

    Two Canadian girls are still in the running to win the annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. Twelve-year-olds Mignon Tsai of Abbotsford, B.C. and Jennifer Mong of St. John’s, N.L. spelled their way into the semifinal of the famous competition on Wednesday. They are now among 50 schoolchildren with a chance to take the Scribbs title Thursday night in a televised spelling showdown.
