I usually try to let my work speak for itself but apparently this needs to be said explicitly. I have interviewed women fighting for the right to wear their hijab in Quebec. I have interviewed women fighting for their right to remove their hijab in Iran.. 1/2

I caught up with Toronto Mayor @JohnTory at the Mabuhay Philippines Festival where he made good on his promise to eat a #balut. I think he may have just also issued a challenge to Premiere @fordnation as well as camera @RedGreenBlue1 and myself!!! @CityNewsTO
