Unexplained Canada on CBC

I should have posted this a little earlier.

If you get digital TV and are in the mood for some intriguing and enduring Canadian tales, check out Unexplained Canada, a six-part documentary which starts showing on CBC Country Canada this Saturday (December 2) at 11:30 a.m.

As I've mentioned a few times in the past, I loved working on this show. I had the pleasure of researching and writing stories while speaking with people in many provinces - from the Atlantic to the Prairies.

Canada is not a dull place, if you know where and how to look.

Seek with your imagination, and enjoy the show.

A Matter of Character

Though for now I continue to slog away in the trenches of modern office life, I am taking on freelance writing projects in addition to my Gleaner assignments. Hey, the writer never stops writing new stuff, and lately I've been writing about something called the York Region Character Community initiative. This piece was published in the York Region Newspaper Group's Business Times.
