Photometry of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars obtained with the first Canadian space telescope MOST (Microvariability and Oscillations of STars) has revealed multimode oscillations mainly in continuum light. The latter suggest stellar pulsations could be a significant contributing factor to the mass-loss rates. Since the first clear detection of a pulsation period of P = 9.8h in WR123, two other stars have also shown periods of a few days, which must be related to stellar pulsations.
