  • Time to Write Again!

    My poor blog has been neglected for a few years. And, the last few years? Holy moly. How are you? If I were to summarize, do a “Reader’s Digest” version of the recent years it would look like this: 2018: Wrote short film script: The Rolling Pin 2019: Edited script and it received funding from…

  • Truly Canadian….

    Happy Canada Day ALL!! Joyeuse FETE du Canada! When people ask me where I’m from I have a difficult time answering. Eventually, I say Canada. Born in Vancouver, brought up in Banff and PEI, schooled in London, Ontario, and Quebec City (La Ville de Quebec) (et, oui.. je parle le Francais!), lived in Frederiction, Ottawa,…

  • Children of God….

    Last Sunday afternoon was a sunny, extraordinary Vancouver day. But, I and a large gathering of people spent it in a dark theatre witnessing the play “Children of God”, produced by Urban Ink Productions, with the York Theatre-The Cultch. My goosebumps burst at the introductory primal drum and the First Nations’ presence that lead us…

  • Two years….my Papa..

    Two years ago, May 10th, (Mother’s Day),  I said goodbye to my Dad. The hardest goodbye of my life. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about him. It’s pretty impossible as 

  • “On a First Name Basis”

    Take an upper echelon, self absorbed (until today) writer, and his clever, under appreciated housekeeper and throw in some expensive bottles of booze. The result? A wonky waltz of intellectual and emotional discovery. When writer, David, insists on them using first names and crossing boundaries, the awkward fun begins. Especially as he didn’t even know…

  • “Promise”, synonym: “lie”….

    For those who read this blog, I have begun another blog dedicated to senior care, and issues that have a senior theme. There is just so much out there that wants to be addressed and stories to be shared. Today’s post brings back the reoccurring theme of the “new” Riverview Manor in Montague, PEI and…

  • Happy Birthday to my dear Papa…

    April 21st… The day my Papa was born. 28 years later he became my Papa. 81 years later he left this world. But, in that 81 years he left a very important mark. One that many will agree was a loving and inspiring one. It certainly was for me. Dad made me feel like

  • Women… taking the stage

    It’s International Women’s Day March 8th, 2017. I’m not going to go on about all the rights, movements, motions, marches, liberation, suppression, equality, love, violence, hate, bigotry, motherhood, sisterhood, beauty, nurturing, bold gestures, going back in time, empowerment, daughters, peace, activism…. Many are addressing these issues. And, well… I guess I sort of am. A…

  • Québec…My Country, Mon Pays

    My plans to write about the film “Québec, My Country, Mon Pays” today became  heightened after the past weekend’s tragedy at a Québec City mosque. My heart goes out to the people who were practicing a peaceful prayer, their families, and the community, that includes us. I lived in Québec City. J’ai vecu a Québec.…

  • Demain… Tomorrow… There will be one…

    Hope. Commitment. Change. Health. Care. Movement. Not waiting for someone else to solve the problem. That’s what we need. What the whole world needs. Especially, right now when there seems to be small groups of people making decisions that put millions at jeopardy, world wide. The film “Demain” (Tomorrow) is an elixir, a well needed…
