CBC article

I thought it was a fine show. Great tribute to John Allan Cameron, my eyes were tearing up halfway through. Bubbles rendition of 'Kitties are so nice' brought the house down. Portia White's sister accepting the Lifetime Achievement award for Portia White was a lovely moment.

Peter MacKay, our foriegn affairs idiot referred to Halifax as Toronto, and is likely still wishing he was somewhere else.

Truth be told I didn't enjoy the last two years but last night was a great show. The Peter MacKay foul up was great. Added to the remarks that followed. As I mentioned in another thread the only mention of Dermot O'Reilly's passing was done so by long time friend Ron Hynes.
A great show.

I may have missed that thread, Adrien, but I thought Ron's dedication of his song to Dermot was a sincere, simply put tribute. I agree about the last two shows, but last night impressed me.

Interesting, they did not bleep out Mary Walsh's 'arse-lickers' remark on CBC Halifax, but apparently did in every other televised showing - guess it took Peter that long to get to a phone.

I also haven't enjoyed it in the last 2 years ... that's why I didn't watch it last nite.

Good to see Jill Barber winning in 2 slots ....

"For all Time" ... best recording of the year and also best female solo.

Love Jill's voice - nice to hear something different from the hit parade of soprano clones.
