There's been a lot of news lately about the Catholic School board here in Ontario. 4000 families are threatening to pull their children out of the system if the school board goes ahead with plans to implement an Equity and Inclusive Education policy, which includes an anti- bullying, … [Read more...]
So You Think You Can Dance?
I've been a bit overworked this week; in a good way, but still... It wasn't until I met the finalists from So You Think You Can Dance at the opening of Come Fly Away in Toronto that I realised how much the phrase "over worked" is open to … [Read more...]
Vandalism or Art?
Watching Britain burn on a nightly basis has been heartbreaking. I took my daughter to London for a girl's trip last Remembrance Day, and it's with a heavy heart that she has taken in the violence erupting in a city she loves. Hearing that much of it is simply mindless destruction by the … [Read more...]
We Can’t Have it Both Ways
A few months back I wrote an article decrying the "Slut Walks" which were taking place across the country. It led to a huge debate, and tempers passionately flared. It began when a police officer had apparently told a group of students that if they wanted to protect themselves … [Read more...]
Why Was Tori Here?
I spent part of today photographing Tori Spelling. Why? Good question. I'll tell you tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy the images! … [Read more...]
Please Answer This One Question

Barbie Dolls, Action Figures, Childhood Idols and a Contest!
Over the years I've met a lot of celebrities, and they're not always the easiest people to deal with. In fact, I've had some downright horrible experiences with people I looked on as idols. So last week, when I realized what I'd be doing and who I'd be photographing, I went in with a … [Read more...]
How Did You Become a Critic: Part 3
I know I said I asked 5 of our country's top critics, but 2 of them didn't make the deadline!! (Kelly and Robert, I'm looking at you...) So we'll finish the series with one of the most beloved Fringe reviewers, Glenn Sumi. Aside from being NOW Magazine's Associate Entertainment … [Read more...]
How Did You Become A Critic: Part 2
With over 100 Fringe shows in, Part 2 of our series continues with Sun Media's John Coulbourn. How did you become a reviewer? I just sort of fell into it. In a way, it all seems sort of pre-ordained in that I had the good fortune to have a father who was highly opinionated and a mother … [Read more...]
