In this Janette’s TV Podcast episode, I speak with British Actress, Writer and Producer, Gaby Dellal, about her new movie, Park Over, that has it’s US Premiere and was named Official Selection at The Santa Barbara Film Festival (SBIFF) this February. Directed by Gaby Dellal, whose previous work includes 3 Generations, Football, On a Clear Day, the film Park Avenue stars Katherine Waterston, Fiona Shaw, and Chaske Spencer. Charlotte (Waterston) runs away from her controlling husband, and fed up with her life of wrangling cattle in Saskatchewan, and returns to her eccentric mother Kit’s (Shaw) New York City apartment, rediscovering the life she left behind. In the process, mother and daughter must face buried truths.
lWe discuss why Gaby choose the cast, mainly Katherine Waterston and Fiona Shaw, for their roles and what qualities she looks for in the actors
l How the setting of NYC and Park Avenue in particular influenced the story and the characters' journeys, and the filming
l What message she hopes viewers take away from the themes of motherhood, rediscovery, and identity
l What inspired her to do Park Avenue. The personal experiences or stories that influenced the film
l What she thinks the film says about female relationships and the bonds between mothers and daughters
l How Charlotte’s experience from her life and husband affect her as she spends time in NYC/Park Avenue with her mother
And lots more!

At 2024’s Vaughan International Film Festival (VFF), I had the pleasure of interviewing renowned filmmaker Luigi Di Fiore. He has always had a unique way of capturing the human condition on screen, and his latest film, Shooting Watermelons, is no exception. Shot in Italy, the movie, which was nominated for best film at the festival, captures Di Fiore’s ability for cinematic storytelling. Combining rich visual artistry with thought-provoking narratives, Di Fiore once again delivers a masterpiece that challenges and moves the audience.
Shooting Watermelons, is a moving exploration of identity, resilience, and perspective. We discuss the story which follows lead Marco, a struggling artist who discovers an abandoned farm and begins photographing watermelons with a vintage camera. Each watermelon represents a fragment of Marco’s psyche—fragile yet full of potential—as he processes past traumas and reclaims his dreams.
We also talk about Di Fiore’s direction, and his blending of poetic visuals with vibrant colors that highlight the film’s themes of hope and transformation. The luminous shots of sunlit fields and dramatic shadows mirror Marco’s inner struggles, while the actors raw vulnerability, bring the story to life.
Beyond its artistic beauty, Shooting Watermelons resonates with universal truths about overcoming adversity and finding unexpected beauty. Di Fiore shares how he was able to balance introspection with humor, crafting a film that is as entertaining as it is profound.

Jamie Kennedy, the talented actor and comedian who stole the show in the Scream franchise, is a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood. Known for his sharp wit, quirky charm, and comedic timing, Jamie brought the character of Randy Meeks to life, giving horror fans someone to root for—and laugh with.
Randy, the ultimate horror movie buff, delivered some of the franchise's most iconic lines, including the "rules" for surviving a scary movie. His hilarious commentary and encyclopedic knowledge of the genre gave us a much-needed dose of levity amid all the gore and terror. Jamie’s performance was so spot-on that it not only earned him a loyal fanbase but also solidified his place as a staple in horror-comedy.
Beyond Scream, Jamie's career has been nothing short of diverse. From hosting his hidden-camera prank show, The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, to starring in films like Malibu’s Most Wanted—where he hilariously portrayed a wannabe rapper from a wealthy family—he’s proven time and again that his comedic chops can’t be matched. Jamie isn’t afraid to push boundaries, take risks, or embrace the absurd to get a laugh. And let’s face it—he almost always does.
But Jamie’s talent doesn’t stop at comedy. He’s also taken on dramatic roles, showcasing his range and reminding us why he’s remained relevant in an industry that’s constantly changing. Plus, with his down-to-earth vibe and genuine love for entertaining, he’s one of those rare celebrities who feels approachable—like the funny guy you’d want at your dinner party.
Having spent decades in the business, Jamie Kennedy continues to keep audiences entertained, whether it’s on screen, on stage, or through his stand-up routines. With his unique blend of humor, charisma, and relatability, he remains a beloved figure in Hollywood—and one we’ll always associate with those unforgettable Scream moments.
I caught up with Jamie at 2024’s Niagara Falls Comic Con to talk about his Hate To Break It To Ya YouTube podcast, appearing on tour & at various Cons, Don’t Suck movie on Amazon Prime, retirement, salmon farm, and much more! We even get into a improv!

"Canada has two seasons: winter and hockey.” Hockey is a central aspect of Canadian culture even for Canadian women. Whether through growing participation in women’s hockey teams or as a bonding experience with their male counter-parts, women's hockey is not just about the sport. I's a movement for equality and representation in athletics that continues to gain momentum thanks to trailblazers like Hockey Legend Marcel Dionne.
Regarded among the greatest Canadian hockey players in history and known as "Little Beaver," Marcel Dionne was born in Drummondville, Quebec. He had an illustrious 18-season career in the NHL, playing for the Detroit Red Wings, Los Angeles Kings, and New York Rangers. Internationally Dionne played for the Canadian National Team at two Canada Cups and three World Championships.
An extraordinary scorer, Dionne became the league’s second-highest all-time scorer when he retired in 1989. He earned numerous accolades, including the Art Ross Trophy as the NHL's leading scorer in 1980 and two Lady Byng Memorial Trophies for sportsmanship.
In 1992, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. In 2017, Dionne was named of the top ‘100 Greatest NHL Players.’ He remains celebrated for his offensive skill and consistency, particularly during his time with the Kings, where he led the famed "Triple Crown Line"
I caught-up with him at Niagara Falls Comic Con to talk all things Hockey, how his career began, life off the ice, building a successful business, and lots more!

HEAT SPELL (French: L'Été des chaleurs) is a Canadian short drama film, written and directed by Marie-Pier Dupuis. Released in 2023 the film dramatizes a true story from Dupuis's own childhood, when her mother accidentally left her sister locked in the car on a hot summer day. Dupuis herself didn't do or say anything about it because she was mad at her sister for other reasons.
The film stars Gabrielle Poulin as the mother, and real-life sisters Agathe Ledoux and Simone Ledoux as the sisters Maxime and Fred.
The film premiered at the 2023 Brussels Short Film Festival, where it was the winner of the ARTE Award in the international competition. It was later screened at the 2023 Abitibi-Témiscamingue International Film Festival, where it won the Prix Unis for short films.
The film received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Live Action Short Drama, and Agathe Ledoux was nominated for Best Performance in a Live Action Short Drama, at the 12th Canadian Screen Awards in 2024.
I caught-up with Marie on the red carpet at 2024’s Vaughan International Film Festival (VFF) where the film was also featured to discuss why she made it, the effects of female sibling rivalry especially between sisters & family, seeing a scenario from different perspectives, knowing when to & not to speak-up, and much more!

With powerful, earthy harmonies, rootsy guitar licks and timeless lyrics, The Redhill Valleys emerged with a force onto the Canadian music scene in 2016. The three-piece Americana alt-country group, whose name pays homage to their hometown of Hamilton, Ontario, is composed of band members Chelsea McWilliams (Bass/Vocals), Tim Allard (Lead Guitar/Vocals), and Matt Soliveri (Drums). The band doesn’t shy away from nostalgia and pulls influence from artists such as Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, Neil Young, The Band and Fleetwood Mac. After releasing their two-part EP, Travel Well, in 2022 The Redhill Valleys’ single “Anymore” garnered significant praise including winning first place in the American Songwriter Magazine lyric contest, and receiving regular airplay on SiriusXM’s North Americana, CBC Country, and Tom Petty Radio. Nominated for several awards, including “Best Group” and “Best Roots Artists” at the Country Music Association of Ontario Awards for three years in a row, the band has built a steady fanbase, extensively touring across Canada, with appearances on prominent stages including Boots and Hearts Music Festival, Big Sky Music Festival, Cavendish Beach Music Festival, along with visits to the US and the UK, including three shows as part of C2C: Country to Country 2024, Europe’s biggest country music festival. Passionate about bringing music lovers together, they are also advocates for music accessibility and are involved in numerous programs that provide opportunities for education in Hamilton including AIFEC, Girls Rock Camp, and City Kidz. Now with the release of their new track “Ready To Roll”, their latest radio single “Rhinestoned,” as well as “Making Rumours” and “Make It Out Alive”, The Redhill Valleys show no signs of slowing down as they continue to develop their sound and grow their audience.
I caught up with the band at City of Vaughan 2024 Canada Day Celebrations to talk about their inspirations, formation, life on the road, and much more!

Sarah Cartell grew up in a White supremacist family, controlled by her grandfather whose beliefs and violence mark them all. When an unexpected friendship, and the town librarian, open her mind and expose those beliefs as vile lies, Sarah begins digging up everything she can about the haters her family celebrate and her grandmother and aunt who fled long ago.
Determined to dismantle the White supremacist network in Canada, Sarah infiltrates a Neo-Nazi gang by beginning a tumultuous relationship with a skinhead that excites and confuses her. As Sarah races to stop the tide of hate crimes, her new friends are put in danger and a horrifying family secret begins to emerge. This unravelling lands Sarah in a psychiatric ward, begging the question—can anyone escape the love of a hateful family, unscathed?
In this interview, Aviva & I discuss why she choose the subject of WHITE & what was her own experience with it, what white supremacy looks like in Canada, how Sarah’s story reflects current issues around White supremacy, how her grandfather’s beliefs & violence affected her family, and Sarah specifically, when someone finds out the truth & it opposes what they grew up believing, what effect can it have on them and much more!

Canadian Actress Kim Roberts's lengthy career encompasses over 200 stage, film, television and voice credits. Notable appearances include Paw Patrol, The Handmaid’s Tale, The Strain, Schitt’s Creek, and The Sinner.
Until September 28th, she’s now appearing in Stratford, ON at The Studio Theatre at The Stratford Festival as “Margaret Whyte” in the play ‘Get That Hope’.
It’s Jamaican Independence Day. Richard Whyte is determined to celebrate it in style. The rice is soaking, the ginger beer is cooling and today his lottery ticket is finally going to hit it big! But Richard’s squabbling family have other ideas, and over the course of a single sweltering day in Toronto’s Little Jamaica, a lifetime of buried secrets and dreams finally come to light.
‘Get That Hope’ is a bittersweet drama of personal and cultural diasporas that brims with laughter and tears. It’s relevant to people of all heritages.
In this interview , Kim and I discuss what drew her to the character of “Margaret Whyte”, how she relates to her and wants women in the audience to see themselves in her.
We also talk about how the play blends themes of cultural & personal diasporas that are reflected in Kim’s own life and how those themes affect women differently than men…How the female characters contribute the family dynamics and the overall story, how culture & nationality intertwine, and lots more!

Claire Ames is a former food and travel writer, whose books include creative non fiction, cookbooks, columns, and history.
Her new book. Victory Gazette, released on July 7th , follows Justine Bertrand, a young Belgian woman who publishes an illegal Resistance newsletter in the fictional village of Ledrens during World War II. The newsletter counters Nazi propaganda despite constant threats of arrest.
The story intertwines the sacrifices and secret roles of the Resistance group, Willow’s Branch, and includes Justine's return to Belgium twenty years later to uncover her betrayer.
In this interview, we discuss how Victory Gazette resonates with Claire’s understanding of World War II and the role of women in the Resistance. And what ways Justine Bertrand's story mirrors the experiences of women during that era. We talk about Justine's journey and how her choices reflect the challenges and strengths of women, both historically and today. And how family dynamics play a big role in shaping women’s values and actions.

Jordyn Sugar is “a Toronto born Singer, Songwriter, and Multi-Instrumentalist, who now resides in Montreal. The 21 year-old rallies against society’s unrealistic standards, particularly those related to Fashion, Beauty, and Body Image. A message she’s been preaching since launching her first single Leaves Me, which received over 300,000 views on YouTube as well as rotation on Virgin Radio.
Her second release Summer High had 400,000 streams across all platforms. Jordyn’s third release Good in My Shoes was released in October 2022 and in addition to becoming a huge Indie hit, it was also chosen as the theme for the Reality Franchise “The Fashion Hero”. Her fourth song Stranger dropped in early January 2023 and it has continued to build on her string of hits.
Jordyn started playing Drums at age 3. Over the next 10 years, she picked up Guitar, taught herself Piano, and found her voice in her early teens. Refining her music in her basement, things really started taking off for her in 2021 after she caught Justin Bieber’s attention. On Instagram, he encouraged her to become a world class singer. She was then discovered by Celine Dion’s former Executive Producer and former SVP of A&R of Sony Music Vito Luprano who helped her perfect her unique vocal style and tone in what is a throwback to the empowered 90s and early Millennial Female Singer Songwriters.
That same year she was selected to be the host of the second season of The Fashion Hero Kids series, hosted by Backstreet Boy AJ McLean. The show features twenty-two diverse contestants as they compete in a bid to “break traditional standards and define a new kind of beautiful”. The series was renewed for a third season and Jordyn is taking on the newly created role of TikTok Correspondent.
I caught up with Jordyn just after she performed at The City of Vaughan’s Canada Day celebrations
to talk about what made her want to be part of the music business, her influences, why she refused to conform and where she’s heading.

Sitting on the subway, on her way to work, Jo DeLuzio contemplates how she’s managed to survive the closet.
A member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Jo didn’t always understand her sexuality. She married a wonderful man who gave her a wonderful life and had 4 children. She also obtained a Master of Clinical Science, with a speciality in audiology, and a PhD in Speech-language Pathology, and began teaching in the graduate program of Speech-language Pathology at the U of T where she still works.
But something didn’t feel right. Struggling with her identity and living an inauthentic life, Joe came out in her 40’s. Her experiences are the basis of the ideas shared in this unique volume of writing that is part memoir, part social discussion, and every part honest. Jo’s voice is unique. Outside the world of audiology, she writes about the oppression of people who are LGBTQ+ in Canada and globally.
In this interview, Joe sits down with me for a very real conversation about the challenges she faced coming out later in life as well as the many different ways members of her community may have a slow, sometimes painful journey to their authentic life. and how that differs from those faced by younger members.
She also imparts her wisdom and advice for older women seeking support within the LGBTQIA+ community, and what she wants readers to take away from this book, especially women who are still in the closet, struggling with their identity or facing oppressions/persecution. She details the steps middle-aged women can take to start living more authentically today, regardless of where they are in their journey. And much more!

Shot in Brazil, in the short film, The Pleasure Is All Mine, Filmmaker Vanesa Sandre raises two pertinent questions: why is female sexuality such a taboo subject? And why is it so rare to see a woman’s sexual journey carried out on screen, especially by a 76-year old who has never had an orgasm?
During our limited time on earth, most of us want to live the best life possible. That includes experiencing sexual pleasure. For some of us, this sensation can last well up into our 80’s, or even until death. We may not want to think of ourselves or our elders as having desires or being sexually active beyond our golden years. But, if you’re active in your youth, you may find little change in your sexual practices and urges as you age. In fact, they may even become more intense.
In this interview, Vanessa and I discuss these very real stats and truths of sexuality in retirement homes. We also talk about what led her to make this film, drawing upon her feminist film theory studies and her quest to present the female perspective as a counterpoint to the ever-so dominant male view in the film industry. Highly influenced by European feminist theorists, like Laura Mulvey, and female directors, like Agnès Varda and Chantal Akerman, Vanesa continues to shine a new light on telling women’s stories.
Through the main character Amélia (who married a young virgin, raised a family, put her own needs last and spouse doesn’t listen to her) the film depicts an elderly woman's journey to discover pleasure and explore her own sexuality. We witness her bittersweet experimentation towards freedom and pleasure without the typical shame or embarrassment associated with these topics. Instead, there is humor, joy and relief in her self discovery that we can all learn from.

Do your know your physical and emotional limits?
For holding her breath and submerging herself into the depths of the ocean from the Bahamas to Antarctica, Jessea Lu holds several national records in freediving. In 2018, she attempted to set a world record but fell short: after achieving her target depth of 93 metres. Lu suffered a blackout while returning to the surface. Rescued by her safety crew, she was lifeless for four minutes. The near-death experience was like a rebirth for Lu, who didn’t abandon the sport but rather challenged herself to face her fears and continue to chase new depths. All of this is featured in the documentary 7 Beats Per Minute, shown at Hotdocs, now on the Festival Film Tour around North America, before streaming on Crave & Other Platforms
I met up with Director and Writer Yuqi Kang in Toronto at Hotdocs to discuss the driving forces behind Lu’s decisions, the deep and intimate bond with Lu, following her intense training and joining her in the ocean as the two discover their similarities, and the vulnerability of coming to terms with past traumas and looking for fresh starts, and realize that trusting ourselves and others is a necessary part of the complicated human condition.

Do you free to live your life and be the person you were meant to be?Hear Jackie Shane sing once and you’ll never forget it. Yet, after shattering barriers as one of pop music’s first Black trans performers, this trail-blazing icon vanished from the spotlight at the height of her fame. From modest beginnings in Nashville, Shane soon recognized her talents and, in her late teens, made her way to Boston and Montreal, working the nightclub circuit while taking the stage with Frank Motley, a musician known for playing two trumpets at once. Her arrival in Toronto during its 1960s music explosion made her a highly sought-after headlining act who seemed destined to take her place among the R&B stars of the era. Blending her music with never-released phone conversations and soulful animated re-enactments, Any Other Way: The Jackie Shane Story brings Shane back to life in her own words, finally providing the recognition she so rightly deserves and introducing her to a generation fighting for their right to be their true selves.In this episode, I sit down with Michael Mabbott, Director, Producer, Writer, and Editor, Lucah Rosenberg-Lee, Director and Writer to talk about Jackie’s incredible talent, tragic life, and death.

Remember your first summer romance and how it made you feel?
Sweeties is a documentary that follows three 14-year-old girls as they embark on a summer holiday with their families to a campsite in the South of France. Feelings and aspirations of young love are in the air. The outdoor campsites, however, are in stark contrast with the online world, where a lot of the girls’ connections are rooted. Talk of what love is, the changes in how people approach romance, the pressures of social media, and the anxieties of coming of age are laid bare with poignant intimacy. For Malak, the camp experience offers a chance to find a new romantic connection. Celia longs for the partner she has but must face the unwanted distance between them. Meanwhile, the only connections Jae wants are those on her phone. The three girls have differing expectations going in but soon find that this summer holiday will be not only memorable but transformative as well.
I caught-up with Dutch Director & Editor, Anneke de Lind van Wijngaarden at HotDocs to talk about how, despite not having any children of her own, she was successfully able to become part of her teenage subjects’ private worlds and how mother’s & grandmother’s can do the same; why it was important to show the different stages of love & romance from the teenage girl’s perspective & how similar patterns repeat for women in life’s later years, why the adventures & misadventures the girls go thorough are to be seriously considered and why she wanted to avoid the negative stereotypes associated with teenage girls and focus on the positive.

What’s your superpower? For actress and activist, Lenore Zann, best known for playing “Rogue” (based on Marvels comics superhero team) in the X-Men Series, the 90’s X-Men: The Animated Series Disney+ revival X-Men ’97, it’s fighting for the underdog. A skill she derives from her character as well as serving as a Member of Parliament and in the House of Commons of Canada for the Liberal Party for 12 years.
Lenore’s passion for helping others began in Sydney, New Sout Wales, Australia where she was born and heavily influenced by her grandmother. She emigrated to Canada with her parents in 1968, first residing in Regina, Saskatchewan, then Truro, Nova Scotia where she graduated from Cobequid Educational Centre. She later attended York University to study drama, fine arts and political science.
Prior to entering federal politics, an award-winning performer, Lenore has had various screen, voice-over, television and gaming roles since she burst on the entertainment scene at age 19 playing Marilyn Monroe in the live rock opera "Hey Marilyn!" She also represented the electoral district of Truro-Bible Hill in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 2009 until 2019 as a member of the Nova Scotia New Democratic Party and from June 9, 2019, until September 12, 2019, as an independent.
In this episode, she joins me to discuss what portraying “Rouge” means to her, how’s she’s adopted “Rouge’s” superpowers in her own life, what she wants women & girls to emulate from “Rogue’s” behaviour, her upcoming book “A Rouge’s Tale”, movie roles, Comicon appearances, and legislative endeavours!

Are you a sucker for romance?
Love is in the air this Spring, and at Sky Gardens!
Released in 2021, the made-for-TV movie stars Hong Kong born Canadian actress, Jenny Raven, known for her work as “Gwen” on Kim’s Convenience, Irina Wong in the American film Flatliners and Sasha Dixon in the television series Designated Survivor. Another notable performance was as “Jasmine” in Arkangel, a Series 4 episode of the British television series Black Mirror.
In Love at Sky Gardens, Raven portrays “Deirdre” - a barista with a passion for designing rooftop gardens. When she accidentally spills coffee on regular customer, event planner Marcus, just before a big meeting with his boss, it sets the wrong tone for him to discuss a job promotion. Deirdre then offers to help Marcus get back on track by lending her rooftop-garden-design services for his boss' next big event: a wedding. His boss agrees to Deirdre's help but also wants Jacob, Marcus' competition for the promotion, to co-plan the wedding. As they work around the clock together, Marcus and Deirdre notice something more about each other and love takes root. But a series of misunderstandings threaten to wilt their growing love. It takes a small miracle to bring them back together where love blooms. Raven was nominated for Best Lead Actress at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards (CSA) for this role.
The film was directed by Samantha Wan, another Canadian actress, screenwriter, producer, and web series creator who was nominated for Best Director. Wan is best-known for co-creating, writing, and starring in the City television series Second Jen. Since 2017, she has starred in the Global Television Network series Private Eyes and in 2022 CBC's Run the Burbs. She is also of Chinese decent and has been outspoken about the need for more diversity and accurate Asian representation on television and in the media.
On the red carpet at CSA, I briefly caught up with the pair to discuss what things you must consider that make for a good director and how hard it is to be a lead character.

How important is family and community to you?
Heartland is a Canadian family comedy-drama television series that debuted in Canada on CBC Television and originally in the United States on The CW Plus syndication on October 14, 2007. Since 2010, the show's been airing on Up TV in first-run broadcast, and still continues to be broadcast as apart of the service's weekend schedule.
The show is based on the Heartland book series by Lauren Brooke and follows Amy Fleming and her older sister Louise "Lou" Fleming on their Alberta-based family ranch, 'Heartland', where they live with their widowed grandfather Jack Bartlett, their father Tim Fleming and hired farmhand Ty Borden. While experiencing the highs and lows of life on the ranch, the family bonds and grows closer.
With the airing of its 139th episode on March 29, 2015, Heartland surpassed Street Legal as the longest-running one-hour scripted drama in Canadian television history.
On June 1, 2022, CBC renewed the series for Season 16 which consisted of 15 episodes and premiered on October 2, 2022 in Canada. In May 2023, the series was renewed for a 17th season with an unspecified number of episodes that premiered in Canada on October 1, 2023.
In the United States, the series has wide distribution through broadcast syndication on weekends, including as part of the default national schedule for Up TV and The CW Plus and new episodes become available as of 2021, on Up Faith & Family, the network's streaming service months after full seasons finish their runs in Canada and later premiere in the US linearly on the main network and all later seasons are exclusive to Up Faith & family first before they go up to available for syndication on other American networks and streaming services that aren't affiliated with UP tv or its sister networks. Reruns of older episodes air on Hulu, Pluto TV, Crackle, Tubi, BYUtv, Retro TV, COZI TV, and Heartland (which is not named for the series). It was also a part of the schedule on the now defunct Light TV until it was rebranded as TheGrio TV on January 15, 2021. The show is also available on Netflix and various other streaming platforms in the US as well.
No wonder the show was nominated for Best Dramatic Series at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards where I met up with cast members, Michelle Morgan (“Lou Flemming”), Aidan Moreno (“Ricke Aderly”) and Michelle Nolden (Jessica Cook”) on the red carpet to talk about the show’s appeal, storylines that embrace LGBT issues, family, immigrants, & community, and what will happen next.

It features six best friends from college, now in their 40’s, reconnecting for their 25-year reunion. Secrets are revealed. And one forces them to re-evaluate their lives.
In this episode, Laura and I chat about why this reunion, which starts out light-hearted and quickly dives deep, focuses on friends approaching their retirement years and what happens when everything they planned for doesn’t quite work out; just how complex, nuanced & messy friendships can be, and lots more!

Ex-Montrealer and Canadian Actress, Jennifer Finnigan, never stops hustling for roles. She is known for her portraying Bridget Forrester in the American soap The Bold and the Beautiful(2000 to 2004), for which she won three Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series. She also appeared on the CBS legal drama Close to Home(2005–2007) and the ABC sitcom Better with You (2010–2011). In addition, Finnigan starred on the FX series Tyrant (2014–2016).

Mothers, sisters, cousins, mentors, and friends, from birth to death, in both good & bad times, across every century, race and religion, women play a constant and significant role in each other’s lives.
Female bonds are indeed unbreakable. Yet how many times have you known or heard stories of women who appear at odds, behaving terribly towards one another? Or worse, been the one to spread the rumors and start the fight?
Women’s behavior hasn’t drastically changed since the 1920’s and the root causes of it, are just some of what Wicked Little Letters, starring British & Irish actresses Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley, explores. It is also what Director Thea Sharrock and I discuss in this episode, noting that when women band together to support (rather than compete), amazing things happen. This can be seen from the movie’s beginning to the end with the lead character’s shifting attitudes and actions.

Imagine spending 35 years at the top of your career and suddenly let go.
Bell Media didn’t renew 58-year-old Veteran Canadian Journalist, Lisa LaFlamme, former chief anchor, and senior editor of CTV National News contract, when executives opted to take the newscast in “a different direction.”
Blind-sided by their “business decision”, LaFlamme spoke out publicly about her dismissal, and went viral on social media.
Accusations of misogyny, sexism, and ageism over LaFlamme's termination sparked public outrage.
Bell Media published a statement that they would be "taking steps to initiate an independent, third-party internal workplace review.“
Bell Executive, Melling asked who approved the decision to 'let Lisa’s hair go grey.' The issue of LaFlamme’s hair colour came up again on set when Lisa’s hair began taking on a purple hue under studio lighting.
Bibic, another Bell Executive, contradicted CTV's explanation, stating that the leave was "pending the outcome of the workplace review." Journalists within the CTV newsroom issued a letter to Bibic, BCE's board of directors, and president "expressing a lack of confidence in Melling's leadership", "serious concerns" over LaFlamme's dismissal, and "toxic work culture that had developed at CTV prior to La Flamme’s departure. On December 19, 2022, the independent review concluded with Melling being reassigned away from CTV's news division, citing a need for civility, respect, and better working conditions in the newsroom.
On August 25, 2022 the Canadian branch of Wendy's restaurants changed the hair of their girl mascot from red to gray in support of LaFlamme. Dove Canada did not mention LaFlamme explicitly but also urged its followers to turn their pictures to grayscale in support of graying women, and announced a $100,000 donation to Catalyst, an organization for inclusive workplaces. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Twitter account retweeted the cover of its Maye Musk issue, who also had gray hair, and mentioned its support for the Dove campaign.

Imagine being sent away by your mother as a child and wondering if you would ever see her or your father again.
That’s what happed to Jane Litwack and her sisters when all three young Jews escaped Nazism, making their way from Czechoslovakia to Holland to England aboard the Kinder Transport to reside with a foster family and rebuild their lives – all thanks to British humanitarian, Nicholas Winton
I met Jane at the 2023 TIFF ONE LIFE movie premier which tells the story of Winton (portrayed by actors Anthony Hopkins & Johnny Flynn). The movie opens in wide release this January. In this episode, Jane recalls her memories of survival and gratitude towards Winton.

Have you ever been involved in a scandal or the subject of idle gossip? How did you cope?
Wicked Little Letters is a 2023 British black comedy mystery film directed by Thea Sharrock and written by Jonny Sweet. Set to be released in 2024, the film stars Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley in the lead roles, along with Anjana Vasan, Malachi Kirby, Eileen Atkins and Timothy Spall in supporting roles.
Based on a true scandal that stunned 1920s England, the story centers on neighbours Edith Swan (played by Colman) and Rose Gooding (played by Buckley) in the seaside town of Littlehampton, England. One day, a series of obscene letters begin to target Edith and others, with suspicion falling upon Rose. As the outrageous letters continue to escalate, Rose risks losing both her freedom and custody of her daughter. Police Officer Gladys Moss (played by Vasan) is determined to find the real culprit, and along with a group of other women, seeks to solve this perplexing mystery.
At their TIFF red-carpet premier, in this episode, I talk with producer/writer, Ed Sinclair (Olivia Colman’s husband) about the dangers of competition amongst women, what can be learned when rumors are started & lives are potentially ruined, and how the story serves as female empowerment piece.

Have you ever been so disgusted by something that you felt compelled to take action to change it and you?
“LEE” is a biopic movie starring Kate Winslet that tells the story of photographer Elizabeth 'Lee' Miller, an American fashion model who became an acclaimed war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II.
The movie, set to be released in 2024, covers the most significant decade of Miller’s life and also stars Big Little Lies actor Alexander Skarsgård, Andrea Riseborough, Josh O’Connor and Marion Cotillard.
In this episode, at their TIFF red-carpet premier, I talk with Producer, Kate Solomon about Kate Winslet role as ‘Lee Miller’ and what Lee experienced on the front lines during World War II inside Nazi Germany. And how Miller used her camera to give a voice to the voiceless and, consequently, how her shocking and horrific photographs, taken at Dachau concentration camp and around Europe, remain some of the most historically important of the second world war.

Imagine lying in a hospital during COVID, dealing with serious health issues
and being told to abort your unborn child.
Prior to her receiving a kidney transplant in 2022 from her sister-in-law,
that's what doctors at Kingston Health Sciences Center in Kingston, Ontario,
Canada advised Sarah Albert & her husband Adam, to do
Despite not being genetically disposed to the disease or experiencing high
sugar levels, in 1999, Sarah was diagnosed with Diabetes. Soon after, the
young mom to her 3-and-a-half-year-old son Leo, was also diagnosed with aHUS
(atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome) - an extremely rare, life-threatening
blood condition with a genetic component that affects multiple organs,
particularly the kidneys.
In this episode, Sarah joins me to share her story, the gratitude she has
for her sister-in-law, the ups & downs of her kidney transplant, going on
dialysis with a newborn at home, her role as Patient Experience Advocate &
Donor Activist, and more!

Have you ever taken a stand or gone to battle for something you strongly believed in?Written by Lucinda Coxon & Nick Drake, the movie ONE LIFE is based on the book, “If it’s not impossible… The life of Sir Nicholas Winton” by Barbara Winton.In wide release January 2024, the movie tells the true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London banker who, on the eve of World War II, saved 669 children from the Nazis – more than the number of children who survived the Holocaust in Czechoslovakia. With war fast approaching, Winton visited a recently annexed Prague, witnessing first-hand Jewish refugee families with little to no shelter and food. He immediately realized it was a race against time to see how many children he and his friends could rescue before time ran out. Fifty years later, in 1988, Winton is haunted by the fate of the children he couldn’t bring to safety in England. It’s not until a live television show “That’s Life” surprises him with the surviving children – now adults – seated all around him that he can finally make peace with the loss he had carried for five decades.I caught up with James Hawes, the film’s director, on the red-carpet at the 2023 TIFF premier to talk about why this movie was made now, Winton’s impact & legacy, and what viewers need to take away after seeing it.

Have you ever lost faith, hope, or courage? Felt like you didn’t belong? Or wished you could pick your family like you do your friends?
Set in Montreal in the 1980’s and told from the perspective of an orphaned girl with a strong-will (played by Keris Hope Hill), Rosie is a ground-breaking, bilingual, Indigenous, queer, Canadian movie written, directed, & produced by Gail Maurice. It stars co-producer, Melanie Bray in the lead role of “Fred” (Frédèrique), the child’s francophone aunt, whom she ends up having to live with.
On the verge of being evicted from her apartment, jobless, and making art from items she finds in the trash, Fred is in no position to take care of Rosie. But with the support of her two gender-bending friends, Flo (played by Constant Bernard) & Mo (played by Alex Trahan), she manages her new responsibility and Rosie adjusts to a new community.
I caught up with Gail & Melanie on the red-carpet at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards, where Rosie was nominated for Best Achievement in Writing, to talk about Gail’s 25-year journey in getting this film made, the importance of believing in yourself (as so many women don’t), and not giving-up.

In this interview, I speak with Vincent Ménard and Mathieu Ardon Ktistakis, writers and producers and Vincent star of the Short Film Trial – a dark comedy-thriller, featured in 2023’s Vaughan International Film Festival, International Block 1 Screenings. The film depicts a lone hiker during one of his trips into the wilderness and the macabre discovery he makes that transformed his tranquil weekend into a fight for survival.
From braving bone-chilling Canadian winter weather outside Quebec, to casting issues, filming without a permit to the process of creating make-believe blood, we discuss everything that went into the production of this film.

Have you ever had to deal with a major illness that greatly impacted your work, relationships, and quality of life?
Designer $hit is a documentary written, produced, directed, and edited by Canadian actress Saffron Cassaday. Releasing on iTunes on November14th, it details her real-life journey & suffering, having lived with ulcerative colitis for years.
At her wits end, Saffron opted to try Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) - a new treatment hailed as the biggest medical breakthrough of the 21st century that involves taking stool from a healthy donor and implanting it into the gut of a sick patient. But was it worth it?
In this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode, we discuss how the treatment is done & if it really helped her, the toll having a chronic illness takes on a person in their work and personal relationships & how she managed it, why she made this movie now & what she wants viewers to take away from it, and more!

Have you been the support system to a spouse? The one that was with them when they had nothing, helped them build a dream and get where they (and you) are today?
It is said that “behind every great man is a great woman “and “behind every great woman is herself”. It is also said “that a man is not a financial plan”.
The movie DUMB MONEY truly exemplifies these expressions through its lead female characters, particularly in the roles of actresses America Ferrera (who plays Jenny) and Shailene Woodley (who plays Caroline Gill).
Both watched, waited, encouraged, and contributed to their partners success - working jobs, raising kids, managing the family finances, and holding the fort down. In the middle of the Pandemic in this David vs. Goliath tale about everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street to become rich by turning GameStop (the video game store) into the world’s hottest company, their lives & attitudes quickly changed.
What was their influence? How did they cope with the responsibilities, relationship dynamics, and new-found wealth, especially when the chips were down? How have other women like Martha Stewart been instrumental in achieving independence, making money, and taking on Wall Street? And what can we learn from them?
These are just some of the questions that I explore in this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode in my conversation with the film’s writers Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo, on the red-carpet, at the DUMB MONEY Tiff premiere.

How is the war between Israel, Hamas & the Palestinians affecting you and your family?
Like most Western countries across the globe, there have been ongoing and increased incidents of antisemitism, Islamophobia & bullying in Canada prior to and since October 7th. As a result, police protection and patrols have been heavily ramped-up in most Jewish neighbourhoods.
Given Canada’s diverse multicultural background and zero-tolerance hate policy, regardless of what side you stand on, hurling insults & threats, proclaiming Days of Revenge, spreading hate on University & College campuses, and organizing demonstrations that put Jewish & Non-Jewish lives, communities & businesses in danger, are wrong and all too familiar of 1930’s Nazi Germany.
In this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode, I’m joined by Michelle Outmezguine, York Region District School Board Grade 5 Educator & Advocate for Antisemitism, Bullying, and Israel’s Rights. Through her EFTO union, Michelle has made motions to create an antisemitism task force and Jewish Heritage Month Poster. She has also developed Social Studies resources for the government’s new antisemitism curriculum expectations and written letters to various organizations objecting to speakers who have a history of anti-Israel advocacy.
From both her & her Muslim colleagues’ experiences, Michelle and I discuss what is going on in classrooms across Ontario, Canada & the world, what teachers & parents can do to objectively filter news their children are exposed to, the freedom & understanding we all truly want, and how we can all live cohesively.

How far would you go to get your children back if you learned your abusive ex-husband had kidnapped them?
The powerful, true story of what happened to Lizbeth Meredith & her daughters plays out in Lifetime Network’s film Stolen By Their Father.
Lizbeth is portrayed by Actress, Sarah Drew, whom you may recognize from her roles as Hannah Rogers in The WB family drama series Everwood and Dr. April Kepner in the ABC medical drama series Grey's Anatomy.
I met up with Sarah on the red-carpet at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards where the movie was nominated for Best Writing.
In this film, a mother’s love knows no borders. Lizbeth risks everything to protect her daughters and ultimately bring them home.
Sarah and I discuss this role, story, case & events, how often this happens to women, and how it’s very possible they can lose their kids because they don’t have the resources to fight.

Have you ever considered playing the stocks or investing in a business? Perhaps your own business?
I once again met up with Michele Romanow, Canadian Tech Entrepreneur, Television Personality, Board Director, Venture Capitalist, Co-Founder of Clearbanc, and one of the Dragons on Dragons’ Den (who I interviewed back in the day when she was part of Buytopia) at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (tiff) at the red-carpet premier of the movie DUMB MONEY, in wide release September 29th. The movie stars Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, Pete Davidson, Shailene Woody, and America Ferrera, (not present due the SAG - AFTRA strike). DUMB MONEY is the true story of a group of rag-tag investors from the Reddit page called r/WallStreetBets, who banded together to put the squeeze on at least two hedge funds that had bet that GameStop shares would fall. The movie proves that anyone, even the most novice investor, can take on a giant, rise-up, and win!
Michele shares her perspective on the film as well as what’s coming up on the new season of Dragrons’ Den. She also spills how she got where she is today and provides some useful tips for how you can get there too. And how Clearbanc is helping individuals and businesses like you achieve these goals.

Have you ever considered playing the stocks or investing in a business? Perhaps your own business?
I once again met up with Michele Romanow, Canadian Tech Entrepreneur, Television Personality, Board Director, Venture Capitalist, Co-Founder of Clearbanc, and one of the Dragons on Dragons’ Den (who I interviewed back in the day when she was part of Buytopia) at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (tiff) at the red-carpet premier of the movie DUMB MONEY, in wide release September 29th. The movie stars Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, Pete Davidson, Shailene Woody, and America Ferrera, (not present due the SAG - AFTRA strike). DUMB MONEY is the true story of a group of rag-tag investors from the Reddit page called r/WallStreetBets, who banded together to put the squeeze on at least two hedge funds that had bet that GameStop shares would fall. The movie proves that anyone, even the most novice investor, can take on a giant, rise-up, and win!
Michele shares her perspective on the film as well as what’s coming up on the new season of Dragrons’ Den. She also spills how she got where she is today and provides some useful tips for how you can get there too. And how Clearbanc is helping individuals and businesses like you achieve these goals.

According to Bruce Hills, President of Just For Laughs Toronto, content is the backbone of comedy and most businesses, responsible for driving sales.
Hills began his Just For Laughs career as a driver in 1986. Shrewd, and enormously gifted, he climbed to the pinnacle of Just For Laughs after holding numerous prominent roles within the organization including publicist, director of programming, VP of international television, COO, and president since 2018.
Today, Hills oversees all f the company’s English business properties across global markets, focusing on growing the business in all divisions, including its digital and televised content, such as Roast Battle on CTV.
Instrumental in establishing and growing the English-speaking portion of Just For Laughs Montreal, Hills, Bell Media, talent agency ICM Partners and a group of investors including comedian Howie Mandel acquired Group Juste pour rire – Just For Laughs French equivalency – after it was put up for sale following allegations of sexual assault and harassment against co-founder and majority stakeholder Gilbert Rozon.
I caught-up with Bruce and multi-talented, award-winning, Trinidadian-born, Brooklyn raised, currently residing in Toronto, Comedian, Jean Paul on the red carpet at The Canadian Screen Actors Awards where Roast Battle was nominated for best comedy series to discuss why content matters so much, what makes a joke funny, and lots more!

Have you ever been scammed? So much of our world is full of fake news, fake people, and fake things. But who would have ever thought that the largest fake ID empire in North America could be invented by two teenage girls in West Vancouver, British Columbia?
That’s the theme of the show Fakes - an American-Canadian television comedy/drama series, which premiered in 2022 on CBC Gem in Canada and Netflix internationally.
The series stars Emilija Baranac and Jennifer Tong as Zoe and Rebecca and premiered September 1, 2022.
Each episode is portrayed from the perspective of one of the two young women, making use of the unreliable narrator technique as their respective viewpoints sometimes contradict each other. Richard Harmon, who plays the supporting character Tryst, highlighted this aspect of the show as a fun creative opportunity for him as an actor, because it allowed him to play more than one variation on the character, based on the differing views of his character in each of the main characters' perspectives, instead of having to maintain a single consistent characterization.
The cast also includes Eric Bempong, Wern Lee, Matreya Scarrwener, Lauren K. Robek, Dylan Sloane, Mya Lowe, Ryan Mah, Emily Leung, Cindy Piper, Devon Slack, Oliver Rice, Debbie Podowski, Roraigh Falkner, Devon Alexander and Toby Hargrave.
The show was nominated for Best Comedy and Best Picture Editing in a Children's or Youth Program or Series. David Turko, creator, and writer and I met on the red carpet at this year’s Canadian Screen Actors Awards where I interviewed him about the challenges of writing comedy and what’s next for him.

Set in the 1870s, Gabe Polsky’s adaptation of John Williams’ literary western stars Nicolas Cage as a buffalo hunter who lures a naïve young man into an ambitious expedition in the Colorado Rockies.
On the red carpet at tiff 2022 and at the premiere of the film Butcher’s Crossing, I caught-up with actors Nicolas Cage, Rachel Keller, and the rest of the cast, followed by the film’s Q & A to discuss the Cage’s decision to star in and strong themes in this movie. Best known for Moonstruck and his wild turns as cinema’s most volatile man, Cage continues to prove he is also capable of great depth and nuance on screen, playing opposite Fred Hechinger (The White Lotus) in a beautiful adaptation of John Williams’ literary western.
This frontier epic tells the story of an Ivy League drop-out as he travels to the Colorado wilderness, where he joins a team of buffalo hunters on a journey that puts his life and sanity at risk.
From Will’s innocence to insight, as the adventure unfolds, Director Gabe Polsky (TIFF ’14’s Red Army) frames deep subject matter: greed, wrong & right, betrayal, destruction, distinction, and total carnage. Will and his ostensible mentor Miller fall into a spiral reminiscent of Willard and Kurtz in Apocalypse Now — something Cage nods to in the shades of Brando he brings to his performance.

The life, music, and activism of legendary Indigenous singer-songwriter Buffy Sainte-Marie are explored in this documentary that is as captivating as its subject, who smashed through barriers to become an inspiration to fans and fellow musicians alike.
Just in time for Canada and Independence Day, comes a tribute to Canadian/American singer & activist, Buffy Sainte-Marie’s extraordinary life and career, Madison Thomas’s Buffy Sainte-Marie: Carry It On is as captivating and vital as its legendary subject, the first Indigenous person to win an Oscar (in 1983 for Best Original Song “Up Where We Belong” which she co-wrote and was featured in An Officer and a Gentleman). She was also the first recurring Indigenous guest star on Sesame Street.
This well-researched film divulges many lesser-known details of Sainte-Marie’s life and brings together a fine collection of subjects whose love and admiration is palpable — most notably Joni Mitchell, who beams with affection when she talks about her. Buffy Sainte-Marie: Carry It On is a much-needed, inspiring biography of one of our most revered and courageous artists.

It’s something we don’t like to speak or think of happening in Canada – a country that prides itself on welcoming immigrants and embracing cultural, ethnic, and religious diversity and differences Yet, many minorities contend with racism and intolerance every day. Perhaps, you are one of those people.
In Riceboy Sleeps, Korean/Canadian Actor, Filmmaker, Writer and Producer, Anthony Shim, addresses these very issues; unlike others who have recalled the trauma of immigrating to this country in their films.
Winner of Best Original Screenplay at this year’s Canadian Screen Awards, Riceboy Sleeps is a 2022 Canadian drama that Shim also edited and directed.
Based in part on his own childhood, the film centers on So-Young (Choi Seung-yoon), a Korean immigrant single mother raising her teenage son Dong-Hyun (Ethan Hwang) after losing her husband and moving to Canada in the 1990’s to give him a better life.
In Canada, they fight for acceptance and respect. Dong-hyun is brutally bullied by his classmates at school, and he isn’t helped by the timid, distinctly Canadian racism of his teacher and principal, who consider the family “troublesome.” At work, So-young battles loneliness and racist and sexist comments. As they negotiate with their separate circumstances, the rift between mother and son grows. Unwelcome news sparks an unplanned return to South Korea — and the in-laws So-young hasn’t spoken to in many years — but might open the possibility of mutual understanding.
Shim’s deep engagement with his subjects sparks profound, affecting revelations. So-young’s joyride in a convertible heartbreakingly underscores the emotional weight of dealing with life in a new country and raising a headstrong child alone. An offhand remark in class that ends in a fight shows how tightly wound and ill at ease Dong-hyun is — even as a teenager.
Throughout the film, Shim expertly balances the very different perspectives of a boy and his mother, poignantly capturing his loneliness and frustration, her isolation, and sacrifices.
It premiered in the Platform Prize program at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival in September 2022, and was named the winner of the program's award. It had its international premiere at the 27th Busan International Film Festival in October 2022.
I met up with Shim on the red carpet at The 2023 Canadian Screen Awards to discuss the message he wants audiences to take away from this movie.

Whatever season or occasion, we owe it to ourselves to always look our best and make a good impression.
Our wardrobe is a key factor in achieving this and should reflect our unique personal style & brand, as well as accentuate our bodies, and make us feel comfortable.
As a fashion lover and accredited media at The One of A Kind Spring Show Toronto’s ladies night, it was wonderful to watch The Fashion Show proudly displaying the latest styles, colours, fabrics, patterns and trends. Wardrobe therapy!
More inspiration and wardrobe ideas came from my interview with fellow fashionista Lauren Mair, owner of ELLEMAIR CO - a clothing company that is made with passion and soul and promotes that you love your fashion, but not at the cost of our planet, animals, or people.
We discuss her philosophy, creative and artistic background that she incorporates into the beauty and versatility of the down to earth, bohemian duster statement pieces she produces from recycled and vintage pieces in vivid fabrics. Each can be dressed-up or down, worn alone or as an accent piece to make your soul happy every day, even while traveling

Regardless of how you define it, art is something that is created with imagination and skill and that is beautiful, expressing important ideas or feelings. It’s interpretive, surrounding our homes, offices, streets, and cities, and thus, a significant part of our lives. While covering The One Of A Kind Spring Show Toronto Ladies Night as accredited media, I met Mixed Media Toronto-based Artist, Morgan Jones. His unique tea party complete with his ballerina model and work immediately caught my eye. I just had to interview him! We talked about his former career as Director of Sales for a large consumer electronics company, how he became a self-taught full-time artist, and why. How he’s inspired by the casual observation of people and life around him, and how his work is constantly evolving.The multi-step process he uses to create his art, his keen eye for texture and composition, coupled with a whimsical flare, Morgan creates works that are aesthetically engaging while also evoking a visceral response in the viewer.
Have you stayed longer than you should have in an abusive relationship due to codependency? Do you recall being anxious all the time without being sure why?
Filmed in Canada, Alice, Darling, Oscar-Nominated actress, Anna Kendrick (“Alice”) captures the anxious psychology of a woman in an abusive relationship as her friends try to reconnect with her while on a cottage getaway.
When Alice is invited on a cottage trip to celebrate her friend’s birthday, she feels like she has to lie to her charming and successful boyfriend, Simon (Charlie Carrick), telling him that it’s a very important business trip.
Her longtime friends, played by Kaniehtiio Horn (Letterkenny) and Wunmi Mosaku (Lovecraft Country) want Alice to enjoy their time together, but she just doesn’t seem present. With Simon continuously texting her, it becomes clear that she’s being closely monitored by him and her phone turns into an overbearing conduit for emotional abuse. Once they realize what’s happening, Alice’s friends try to convince her that her relationship isn’t normal, but she continues to doubt herself, constantly modulating where she goes or what she eats, unable to disconnect from Simon, even though she knows she’s unhappy. As the weekend progresses, not only their friendship hangs in the balance, but also Alice’s safety. The women become entangled in a psychological tug-of-war with Simon, who continues his attempts at excising Alice from those closest to her.
Written by Alanna Francis, returning to TIFF 2022 after 2019’s The Rest of Us, and intelligently realized by Mary Nighy, Alice, Darling captures the apprehension and dread that haunt victims of domestic abuse. Nighy’s direction puts particular focus on the little details that serve as warning signs and, coupled with a meticulous performance from Kendrick, she creates a tense atmosphere that serves as a unique portrait of psychological manipulation and one young woman’s effort to overcome it with the support of her friends.
As accredited media, I was at their TIFF 2022 red carpet premier to talk to Nighy, Noah Segal (co-president at Elevation Pictures Corp), Kendrick (who in part accepted this role after being in her own abusive relationship for over 6 years), Francis, and Carrick about their roles, the importance of bringing this story to the big screen, and lots more!

Whether you marched in the civil rights movement, personally experience, or know a visible minority who continues to experience racism in our society today (sadly, incidents of crimes against humanity, discrimination and racism are still reported regularly), Sidney is a documentary portrait of the late, great Sidney Poitier. Produced by Oprah Winfrey & Derik and directed by Reginald Hudlin (House Party, Boomerang, Marshall), this piece showcases his films, life story, and litany of accomplishments as an artist and activist who forever changed what it means to be Black in America.
Poitier’s own words provide the narration of his life. Woven together is a rich mix of archive footage and contemporary interviews with a stellar group of interview subjects — from the late cultural critic Greg Tate to Halle Berry, Denzel Washington to Spike Lee, to Barbra Streisand, and Oprah.
Poitier’s contemporaries and the holders of his legacy detail just how extraordinary his rise was, from early failure at the American Negro Theater to Oscar-nominated roles in films like The Defiant Ones, to becoming the living, big-screen embodiment of America’s hopes for racial justice.
Poitier’s rise to stardom occurred in tandem with his commitment to social change, marching for civil rights with Martin Luther King Jr., and helping to usher Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, a milestone in portraying Black American experience, from Broadway to the big screen.
Watching signature scenes from his films, getting a glimpse of rare footage from his life beyond Hollywood, and seeing how pivotal his life and example has been for so many of today’s icons, it’s clear that there never was and never can be a figure quite like Sidney Poitier.
The movie premiered at TIFF 2022. I was there as accredited media working the red carpet. It was an honor to speak with Reginald, and see in-person Sidney’s wife & daughters, Oprah, Tyler Perry, and Gayle King relay the power and impact of Sidney Potier, who paved the way for them.
It’s a topic few want to speak about. Yet, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence that often tears them and their family apart with serious scars.
Barricaded in a motel room, the multi award-winning short film Lioness, now streaming on Omeleto, tells the story of a mother’s determination and primal instincts to protect her child's innocence with only one line of dialogue.
Partially inspired by a true event, Lioness, is a moving and powerful look at the bonds of parenthood in a frightful situation.
As an accredited media sponsor at the 2022 Vaughan International Film Festival’s Short Film Screening, I caught up with Sara Oliva: Actress (playing “The Mother”), Writer, and Producer of the movie to talk about why she created the film, the rise in domestic violence since COVID, how many times it takes to leave an abuser, how far a mother will go to protect her child, and much more!
This film is a must-see for anyone who has personally experienced or knows someone who has been the victim of domestic violence or abuse. There is help, and a way out. You’re not alone!

With Passover and Easter upon us, this time of year, we often think about the meaning of freedom, survival, and renewal. Directed by Sally El Hosaini from a screenplay that she co-wrote with Jack Thorne, The Swimmers is a 2022 biographical sports drama film dealing with similar themes. The plot follows the true life story of teenage Syrian refugees Yusra Mardini and her sister Sarah Mardini, who swam alongside a sinking dinghy of refugees to lighten it, and eventually help 18 refugees to reach safety across the Aegean Sea while being smuggled from İzmir towards Lesbos.
Subsequent struggles as refugees are vividly depicted, but Yusra Mardini's swimming career sees her reaching the Rio 2016 Olympics as a member of the Refugee Olympic Team. In the final credits, we learn that Sarah in 2016 returned to Lesbos as part of voluntary efforts to assist incoming refugees. She was arrested and faces charges carrying potentially long-term prison sentences, if convicted.
Yusra and Sarah are played by real-life sister Lebanese Actresses, Nathalie Issa & Manal Issa. The film also stars, Ahmed Malek, German Actor, Matthias Schweighöfer (playing The Swimming Coach), Ali Suliman, Kinda Alloush, James Krishna Floyd and Elmi Rashid Elmi.

Born out of Director Sharon Lewis’s own muted struggle with not fitting into neat racial/Queer/Christian boxes, With Wonder takes an intimate look at the journey of members of the Queer, Christian community of colour and their attempts to answer the question: Can you be both Christian and Queer?
This feature length documentary, features the diverse stories of several members of the LGBTQI+ community, including high profile queer activists and Queer clerics, in places like Jamaica, New York, London, and Los Angeles. They each have their own unique ways of amplifying their voices and finding their way back to spiritual health, despite the shaming tactics of some Christian institutions.
With Wonder is a love letter to God from the LGBTQI+ community of colour. Heartfelt and honest, With Wonder delves into what for some might be uncomfortable conversations.
In this episode, I sit down with Courtney Panchan, Distribution Manager of Black Market Releasing (the film company releasing With Wonder) to talk about how the QPOC people in the film came to terms and come out the other side, living their truth with the power of who they are and still serving God and how they can champion youth across Canada & the US who are looking to be accepted for their truth.

The plot follows the true life story of teenage Syrian refugees Yusra Mardini and her sister Sarah Mardini, who swam alongside a sinking dinghy of refugees to lighten it, and eventually help 18 refugees to reach safety across the Aegean Sea while being smuggled from İzmir towards Lesbos.
Subsequent struggles as refugees are vividly depicted, but Yusra Mardini's swimming career sees her reaching the Rio 2016 Olympics as a member of the Refugee Olympic Team. In the final credits, we learn that Sarah in 2016 returned to Lesbos as part of voluntary efforts to assist incoming refugees. She was arrested and faces charges carrying potentially long-term prison sentences, if convicted.
Yusra and Sarah are played by real-life sister Lebanese Actresses, Nathalie Issa & Manal Issa. The film also stars, Ahmed Malek, German Actor, Matthias Schweighöfer (playing The Swimming Coach), Ali Suliman, Kinda Alloush, James Krishna Floyd and Elmi Rashid Elmi.
November 11, 2022 it was in limited release in cinemas, then shown at the evening gala of the Marrakesh International Film Festival on November 18, 2022, before its streaming release by Netflix, on November 23, 2022.

Enjoy this episode with my compliments this Passover/Easter weekend!

Carrying on with all things LOVE in our Month of LOVE series, this week’s episode features the British romantic comedy-drama Film - What’s Love Got to Do With It? The film covers the topics of arranged or assisted marriage and interfaith marriage.
Winner of Best Comedy at the 2022 Rome Film Fest and scheduled to soon hit movie theatres in Great Britain (Feb.24th) and North America, the film directed by multi-award-winner, Shekhar Kapur(Elizabeth, Bandit Queen), and written & produced by Jemima Goldsmith Khan, the movie is set between London and Lahore.
It documents a filmmaker’s childhood friend & neighbour's arranged marriage to a bride from Pakistan. It is based on Jemima’s own mixed marriage (she was formerly married to Pakistani politician and former cricket captain, Imran Ahmed Khan Niazi, who later served as the 22nd Prime Minister of Pakistan). The star-studded cast includes Lily James (Lady Rose in Downton Abbey, Pam in Pam & Tommy) alongside British & Pakistani Actors, Models, Comedians and Musicians Shazad Latif, Shabana Azmi, Emma Thompson, Sajal Aly, Oliver Chris, Asim Chaudhry, Jeff Mirza, Alice Orr-Ewing, and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.
I caught up with some of them at the film’s world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10th, 2022, to discuss the concept of arranged & assisted marriages, the pluses & minuses of them, what attracted these stars to their roles, and lots more!
As we continue to honor Valentine’s Day and all things LOVE, this week’s episode features the amazing story in first-time author, Danielle Kaplan’s book, I Married A Thrill-Seeker: A Cautious Wife’s Memoir of Her Husband’s Risk-Taking and Their Long Road to Recovery. For fans of memories of trauma and recovery and for anyone living and loving a risk-taker, comes one man’s struggle to overcome a one percent chance at survival as told through the eyes of his wife, his high school sweetheart, who was his greatest ally. The book recalls the tale of Danielle’s type-A and adrenaline-junkie husband, Stephen Kaplan — former CFO and CEO of Deciem Beauty Group — as he sets off to take one last solo road trip on his motorcycle, from Toronto, Ontario to near Fairbanks, Alaska. Danielle knows it’s the last ‘adrenaline rush’ trip he’ll take on the bike–he’s promised to give it up for good.
On the other hand, Steve expected to make it home with no drama, no unnecessary risks, just the freedom of the open road and the wind on his face. But after hitting a pothole while driving at a high speed in rain at dusk, it’s the ending neither of them dreamed of when he crashes on a remote highway in the Yukon, he can’t move, and its hours before he can receive medical treatment.
In this candid interview, Danielle and I sat down to discuss how this event changed her, her husband’s and her children’s lives in an instant, how she came to terms with Steve’s adrenaline-junkie antics & found an appreciation for it amidst having to make unbearable decisions, experiencing miraculous moments, how as a former speech pathologist she became her husband’s greatest advocate - fighting by his side the entire time, through every step forward and step back as Steve regained his health and lots more in what can only be described as a true testament of luck, love, and incredible fortitude given Steve’s injuries that left him with a less than one percent survival rate.
Happy February! In honor of Valentine’s Day, this month, our episodes are focused on all things LOVE. This includes love that isn’t always good for us. As is the case in the short movie, Love, Sick – A Story of Toxic Love, Written, Produced, & Directed, by the Emmy and Webby award-winning, Christopher Klimovski. I had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing ‘Klimovski’ as he prefers to be called, in Vaughan, Ontario, at The Vaughan International Film Festival’s, International Short Filming Screenings where Love, Sick premiered. Have to admit, the film was chilling to the core. And I wouldn’t expect anything less from Klimovski. Have you been through a painful breakup and experienced heartbreak? Or ever missed someone so much that you felt sick? What about a strong sense of yearning for a person who didn’t feel the same way? Then you know that this experience is real and hurts. Love, Sick the movie takes this feeling up a notch. The story centers on two people who want to be together, and simply can’t without destroying each other. But not for the usual, cliché reasons. Klimovski and I chat about what provoked him to make this movie and explore the dark and very toxic side of love.

The Fabelmans is a 2022 American coming-of-age drama film directed by Steven Spielberg, who co-wrote and co-produced it with Tony Kushner. The film is a semi-autobiographical story loosely based on Spielberg's adolescence and first years as a filmmaker, told through an original story of the fictional Sammy Fabelman, a young aspiring filmmaker who explores how the power of films can help him see the truth about his dysfunctional family and those around him. It stars Gabriel LaBelle as Sammy, alongside Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, and Judd Hirsch in supporting roles.
The Fabelmans had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10, 2022, where it won the People's Choice Award. The film received widespread critical acclaim for the performances of the cast, Spielberg's direction, the screenplay, cinematography, and John Williams' musical score. It was named one of the top ten films of 2022 by the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute.
The film received five nominations at the 80th Golden Globe Awards in 2023, winning Best Motion Picture – Drama and Best Director for Spielberg. It also received 11 nominations at the 28th Critics' Choice Awards, including Best Picture, winning Best Young Performer for LaBelle.
In this episode, I take you behind-the-scenes with Steven Spielberg and the cast at the Fabelmans at its TIFF premiere, where even more about Steven’s life & family, beginnings as a filmmaker, and casting decisions, are revealed.
BGU is Israel’s youngest university in the developing Negev Desert. It is quickly transforming into a dynamic university and becoming Israel’s fastest-growing university. In this episode, Janette talks with Jack Altman, President, BGU CANADA, David Dulberg and Naomi Oelbaum, Event Co-Chairs of Ben-Gurion University Toronto’s The Future is Now Gala Featuring Actor Michael J. Fox about how the event came together, what they wanted attendees to get out of it, why BGU is at the forefront of medical research & development with its Medical Simulation Building, enrolling over 20,000 Jewish, Palestinian & Arab students each year, the impact its research has worldwide, and what makes BGU a school for sustainability and climate change.
This November, I interviewed the late Mark Mendelson, CEO of BGU Canada at Ben-Gurion University Toronto’s The Future Is Now Gala Featuring Actor Michael J. Fox. Although it was our first-time meeting, Mark’s fundraising in Canada for Israel-based institutions and other successes as a leader in the Jewish Community was evident. Sadly, he suddenly passed away in Montreal at the age of 73, just days after the event.
Mark served as the CEO of Ben-Gurion University Canada for the past 12 years. Previously, he was the executive director of the Jewish National Fund (JNF) for Eastern Canada for 17 years.
Known for his signature navy blazer and moustache, his love of family, good food & wine, art, cooking and entertainment, Mark had a larger-than-life personality.
His work and devotion to BGU Canada was also apparent - having expanded its presence across Canada and increasing the amount of money raised. Despite the limitations of the pandemic, Mark recently reported to supporters that the organization had had a record financial year.
Making BGU, Israel’s youngest university in the developing Negev Desert, become better known in Canada, became Mark’s true mission.
Mark shares how BGU transformed into a dynamic university becoming Israel’s fastest-growing university at the forefront of medical research & development with its Medical Simulation Building, enrolling over 20,000 Jewish, Palestinian & Arab students each year, the impact its research has on autism, and much more!

Last month, justice was finally served for Amanda Todd, the Canadian teen who took her life in one of the most high-profile Sextortion cases on record. It was unsealed for the first time in 1091 Pictures global release, timed to Mental Health Awareness Month in the global TVOD/digital release of Auroris Media’s inspirational, fast moving, and timely feature documentary Sextortion: The Hidden Pandemicfrom director, editor & producer Maria Peek, p.g.a. (“I Dream of Dance,” “Third Grade”) and producer & cinematographer Stephen Peek, p.g.a. (“Unacknowledged,” “Renegade”). Amanda’s mother and other victims also speak in this film.
In this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Stephen & Maria Peek to discuss what sextortion is and how it is affecting our youth and how the film merges true crime with an empowering educational opportunity that provides families with essential ways to keep their children safe on the Internet.
The filmmakers experienced Sextortion in real time through one of their children’s classmates, and it inspired them to be the change they want to see in the world. With a rapidly moving running time of 85 minutes, you will be engaged and inspired to help save kids around the globe once you watch this documentary.
Premiering at this year’s Santa Barbara International Film Festival as part of the Social Justice Feature Documentaries, and recently through the Spotlight Docs Series (a 501c3 that the filmmakers founded), along with the film came a recently completed sold-out 20+ city educational tour around the U.S. (to audiences of over 5,000 people), where the filmmakers, and Federal agents who ran the landmark case (declassified for first time in this film), have been onsite to experience the emotional and powerful moments—where victims and victims’ families spoke up during the post screening Q&A’s. They have over 200 additional requests across the globe asking for an educational screening series in their cities. The EU Parliament and The Pentagon have begun planning screenings with the filmmakers for later this year and into 2023.
The case featured in the film was declassified by (HSI) right before its release, comparable in scope to the case featured in the critically acclaimed “Spotlight.” It’s important to note the difference between human trafficking (cases in the hundreds of thousands), and sextortion (cases in the tens of millions) – as sextortion is 1,000 times more prevalent and is often the precursor to trafficking. 1 in 4 kids are affected or know someone who has been affected by sextortion.
Through partnerships with the Department of Justice and Homeland Security, the filmmaking team had unique unrestricted access to all government documents for an international sextortion case of a Top Gun pilot with hundreds of victims, unsealed for this film for the very first time. By interviewing survivors and their parents, this true crime piece exposes this fastest growing crime against children, the tactics of online predators, and the voices of parents and law enforcement poised to stop online child exploitation in its tracks. Through interviews with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), “Sextortion: The Hidden Pandemic”shows the scale of online enticement and exploitation of children-- and what we can do to stop it. The filmmakers created an online educational curriculum in partnership with NCMEC, which is available at https://www.missingkids.org/netsmartz. This curriculum is available to educators, parents, federal agents, and police departments, a

Canadian singer, songwriter, composer, and pianist, Chantal Kreviazuk was born in Winnipeg. She played music from a young age before signing with Columbia Records in the 1990s. Her debut studio album, Under These Rocks and Stones, was first released in Canada in 1996 and saw commercial success before being issued in the United States the following year to critical praise.
Kreviazuk released two more studio albums with the Columbia la-bel, Colour Moving and Still (1999) and What If It All Means Some-thing (2002), both of which brought moderate commercial success world-wide. She signed with Sony BMG for her fourth album, Ghost Stories (2006), which reached number two on the Canadian Albums Chart.
Since 2003, Kreviazuk has co-written and composed numerous songs for other artists as well as film soundtracks and has appeared in several Canadian independent and short films. Her fifth album, Plain Jane, was re-leased by Canadian independent label MapleMusic Recordings in 2009. Her most recent albums, Hard Sail and Get To You, were released by Warner Music Canada in 2016 and 2020, respectively. She also re-leased a Christmas album in 2019, called Christmas Is A Way Of Life, My Dear.
From the beginning of her career to 2016, Kreviazuk was the 51st best-selling Canadian artist in Canada.
Kreviazuk met Raine Maida, the lead singer of Our Lady Peace, at a Pearl Jam concert in Toronto in 1996. They married in December 1999, and have three sons, born January 2004, June 2005, and June 2008. In honour of their tenth wedding anniversary, Kreviazuk and Maida renewed their wed-ding vows in Costa Rica in November 2009. The family lives in Toronto and also has a home in the USA.
Kreviazuk and Maida appeared in the 2019 documentary film I'm Going to Break Your Heart, which detailed both their collaboration on the al-bum Moon vs. Sun, their first album recorded jointly as a duo, and the conflicts and tensions that had arisen in their marriage after 19 years.
Kreviazuk is a member of the Canadian charity Artists Against Racism and is also intimately involved with War Child and other charities.
Janette caught-up with her on the red carpet at 10th Annual Vaughan International Film Festival (VFF) Gala Awards (where she was the featured entertainer) to talk about her three-time Juno Award winner and collaborations with several other musicians, including Drake, Pitbull, Christina Aguilera, Carrie Underwood, Kendrick Lamar and Pink, how she sees VFF helping young artists, and what more she’d like to see for Metis & Ukrainian artists.

Playwright, Producer, Director and Actor Tyler Perry’s latest epic, A Jazzman’s Blues, is now streaming on Netflix. It was the first screenplay he ever wrote over 25 years ago. Set in Georgia, it stars actors Ryan Eggold (“Dr. Max Goodwin” on the NBC series, New Amsterdam), Joshua Boone, Solea Pfeiffer, Amirah Vann, and Austin Scott in a story of forbidden love and family secrets that stretches from the 1940’s to the 1980’s. Throw in the couple’s forced separation, “Leanne”, the female lead passing herself off as White & marrying a prominent White man, her mother “Ethel”, played by Lana Young, a tantalizing murder-mystery spiked with dazzling musical numbers choreographed by the legendary Debbie Allen, music composed by Aaron Zigman, and a nod to the Holocaust in “Ira”, Eggold’s character; and you have another testament to Black American music, resilience and storytelling that is very different from Perry’s previous comedic works. A Jazzman’s Blues also explores the shared experience between American Blacks & Jews and their strong connection during the Civil Rights Movement, reminding us that love conquers all, including racism. Hailed for his humanity, Perry transformed himself from flat broke and sleeping in his car to one of Hollywood’s foremost screenwriters and comedians, reaching Billionaire status. As Accredited Media, I had the privilege of attending A Jazzman’s Blues TIFF Red Carpet Gala to chat with Perry about why making this film was on his bucket list, how it might just be the mark of a new chapter from him and how his faith & conviction carried him through. I also spoke to the rest of the cast about what attracted them to their roles, and the movie’s meaning & purpose. One of Perry’s best friends, Oprah Winfrey, even dropped by.

Ukraine vs. Russia – The Inside Scoop with Ukrainian Filmmakers Serge & Nathalie Velbovets
I met Film Director & CEO Serge Vebovets of VELBIX FILMS and his lovely wife Nathalie Velbovets, both of whom immigrated to Canada 11 years ago from Ukraine, while interviewing & filming at The Vaughan International Film Festival. A riveting conversation ensued where I mentioned that my grandparents who hailed from Poland, Romania, Kiev and nearby towns, fled Ukraine between 1917 and 1921 to escape the Jewish Pogroms (when the USSR expelled its Jewish population). This led to a discussion on the current war between Ukraine & Russia and what Ukrainians have been experiencing for months on end. Although widely covered in the media, there are some things that have not been reported. In this interview, Serge & Nathalie give me an inside account of what their families, friends & filming crew deal with daily. They also share their perspectives and the world’s support and continued support of Ukraine, what more can be done to end the war, as well as on Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s leadership.

f you’re a fan of Schitt’s Creek, The Handmaids Tale, The Saw III, The Saw IV, Rember, PawPortal, Killjoys, The Tuxedo, Degrassi: The Next Generation and Working Moms, you’ll instantly recognize the very bold, beautiful, and talented Canadian Actress Kim Roberts, winner of The Vaughan International Film Festival 2022 Independent Leadership Award. She’s one of the hardest and longest working Canadian Black actresses in Canada with an extensive list of impressive and diverse roles. Kim was also the first Black Actress to receive a speaking part in a commercial in Canada in the 1990’s. Yes, that’s how long it took! Because sadly, when Black actors and actresses make headlines, it’s not always treated well. Such as with the announcement of Ncuti Gatwa as the 14th Doctor in Doctor Who, the first Black doctor; Moses Ingram receiving abuse, forcing Star Wars co star Ewan McGregor to defend her; and Steve Toussaint being forced to defend his appearance on Game of Thrones for being a Black character in a house that is seemingly only allowed to be white. Kim and other Black actors’ achievements should be lauded, not treated as a surprise that they were able to do it because they were Black. Janette caught up with Kim at The Vaughan International Film Festival Gala awards to talk about her big win, her illustrious career with its highs & lows, reversing Roe vs. Wade, and what’s next for her.

If you’re a child of the 90’s, you must remember the iconic sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S starring David Schwimmer (Ross Geller), Courteney Cox (Monica Geller), Jennifer Anniston (Rachel Greene), Matthew Perry (Chandler Bing), Matt Leblanc (Joey Tribbiani), and Lisa Kudrow (Pheobe Buffay) that ran for Thursday nights for 10 seasons, on NBC. Created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, the series followed six young men and women residing in the same apartment complex and how they faced life and love together in Manhattan, New York City. Constantly sticking their noses into each another's businesses, as well as sometimes swapping romantic partners, the group always got into the kind of comic situations that most other people never deal with, especially during breakups. In this Janette’s TV & Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Stacy Moscatelli, Co-President and Chief Strategy Expert for SuperflyX, the company that creates THE F.R.I.E.N.D.STM EXPERIENCE TORONTO as well as in major U.S. cities to discuss what you can expect to see in the exhibit’s 12 showrooms replicating the set of F.R.I.E.N.D.S, why people are still so drawn to the show, what we can learn about friendship post COVID from the characters, and much more!

In this Janette’s TV and Janette’s TV Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Maggie Murphy who was General Manager of the Lewes FC Women’s Team from 2019-2021, then elected to CEO of Lewes FC in 2021. Lewes Football Club was founded back in 1885 and is located in Lewes, East Sussex, England where Maggie joins us from. In 2017, they launched the ground-breaking Equality FC campaign that saw Lewes FC become the first (and currently only) club in the world to have equal playing budgets for women and men. Maggie sheds light on the history of Women & Football (Soccer) and how The FA Cup began in 1871. Women started playing in 1891. The Football Association banned women’s football in 1921 when the first Women’s FA Cup was played and didn’t reinstate it until 1971 (because they considered women’s football to be ‘unsuitable for a woman’s frame’, and ‘quite inappropriate for most women’). The 50-year ban allowed men’s teams to grow to the popularity they are now, while women were stunted from reaching the same level. Find out how she and Lewes FC are changing it and how you can play a part.

Written and directed by Danis Goulet, who is Cree Métis from northern
Saskatchewan, Night Raiders is a film about harm, abuse, violence, and/or
intergenerational trauma due to colonial practices. It is one of the most
important Canadian films made in recent times. A searing thriller set in the
near future; it digs deep into Canada's painful past to craft a compelling,
propulsive piece of genre cinema.
After a destructive war across North America, a military occupation seizes
control of society. One of their core tactics: taking children from their
families and putting them into State Academies or forced-education camps.
Niska (played by Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers) is a Cree mother desperate to
protect her daughter Waseese (played by Brooklyn Letexier-Hart). But events
force mother and daughter to separate, leading Niska to join a group of Cree
vigilantes to get her daughter back.
This story echoes the real forced assimilation of Indigenous children that
colonizing powers undertook in Canada, the US, Australia, and beyond. It
transforms the ugly reality of residential schools into remarkable,
cinematic piece. Goulet's vision, combined with powerful performances from
Tailfeathers, Letexier-Hart, and Gail Maurice, bring this speculative future
into dialogue with our past. Night Raiders is not just a singular Canadian
film, but a new view of Canada for the entire world.
Janette's TV & Podcast were among Canada's top accredited media at The
Canadian Screen Actors Awards virtual red carpet press room interviewing the
event's big winners. In this second episode of our special CSA series,
Janette talks with actress Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers, who took home the award
for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for her performance in
this movie, about what this role meant to her and the Indigenous community,
and what she would like to see happen next for Indigenous actors, writers,
directors, and producers.

Scarborough is an amazing movie with a powerful message that explores the struggles, endurance, and resilience of this culturally diverse Toronto community through the lives of three kids growing up within a system that has set them up for failure. Filmed on location in the Kingston-Galloway/West Hill neighbourhood, Scarborough takes place over the course of a school year. Producer/Writing team, Shaskha Nakhai & Rich Willaimson, winners of Best Achievement in Direction, were also on-hand to discuss what motivated them to make this film.

Riveting performances and a natural charisma have secured Kris Orticello as one of the most outstanding Canadian actors to catapult into the US market. She has been featured in US Weekly Magazine, FOX News, ABC News, NBC News, along with many other publications for her performances.
The Italian-Canadian born Torontonian began acting and modeling at the age of 7, although her ultimate passion was singing.

She was then hired regularly to model for various brands on The Shopping Channel and later QVC. Kris has been cast in television commercials and hired as a brand ambassador. Janette caught up with her in Toronto at Liquid Media’s TIFF party to talk about COVID and acting, and her most notable recent leading roles. Kris portrays “Tory Spelling” on Amazon Prime’s BROKE AND FAMOUS, as well as “Brandi Glanville” in US Weekly’s FAMOUS FUEDS which depicts the controversial affair of Eddie Cibrian and country singer, LeAnn Rimes that lead to Glanville & Cibrian’s untimely divorce.

Born and raised in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, Maitreyi identifies as 'Tamil-Canadian' rather than 'Sri Lankan’. She began acting in school plays in Grade 10 and graduated from Meadowvale Secondary School. She made the decision to pursue an acting career in her last year at Meadowvale and landed the lead role of “Devi Vishwakumar” in the Netflix teen comedy series Never Have I Ever less than a year after. Ramakrishnan deferred her acceptance to the theatre program at York University in Toronto, which she had initially planned to attend the fall after she graduated high school, so she could shoot the series in Los Angeles. Janette caught up with her a Liquid Media’s Tiff party to discuss the series which first aired in July 2020 was renewed by Netflix for a second season August 2021 and deals with the coming-of-age of an Indian-American high school student coping with the sudden death of her father. This is Ramakrishnan’s first-ever acting role. She was selected by the show’s creator, Mindy Kalin (whose life the show is loosely based-on), out of 15,000 applicants who applied in an open casting call. Never Have I Ever has been described as a watershed moment for South Asian representation in Hollywood and has received praise for breaking South Asian stereotypes. A third season is in the making.

At 17, French Canadian & Japanese actress Miku Martineau made her acting debut along Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Woody Harrelson in the top-rated Netflix movie “KATE” playing the character Ani. Janette caught up with the young starlet in Toronto at Liquid Media’s Tiff event to talk about the movie in which skilled assassin (Winstead) who uncharacteristically blows an assignment targeting a member of the yakuza in Tokyo has 24-hours to exact revenge on her killers. During this time, she forms an unlikely bond with the teenage daughter of one of her past victims (Martineau). How did Miku land this role that has been deemed anti-Asian and how has it changed her?

It’s the sort of thing fairy tales are made of, so we all thought. But it played out more like a nightmare. I’m referring to “Princess Diana’s” life and tragic death as depicted by actress, Kristen Stewart, in the movie Spencer. This Janette’s TV and Janette’s TV Podcast episode is a commentary of Tiff’s Bell Digital Talks In Conversation with Kristen Stewart which we were invited to participate in and even submitted interview questions in advance for. Kristen’s interview was conducted via ZOOM as she didn’t attend Spencer’s red-carpet premier. Rather, s he remained in the US. My commentary showcases Kristen’s talk and clips from the movie. She talked at length about how extraordinary this situation was since the movie was in production a year ago and has just now started to hit audiences across North America. She wanted to do Diana proud and was excited for people to finally watch a story never before told in the box office - a story filled with wealth, power, deceit, and controversy. Venice and Telluride film festivals have already credited Kristen with an amazing performance. Many critics think Kirsten was the perfect choice for the role. Yet others were skeptical of this casting choice. But Kristen has grown from her days of Twilight and really pulled it off. She’s already receiving Oscar Buzz.

In this Janette’s TV & Podcast episode, Janette sits down with English actress and singer, Lisa O’Hare who played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady and the title character of Mary Poppins on the West End and UK stage. Lisa has also appeared in several prime-time American television shows on TNT, ABC and NBC. Most recently, starring on Broadway in the musical, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder.
Lisa talks about how she landed the role of “Georgia Goodwin”, the wife of Dr. Max Goodwin (playing opposite actor Ryan Eggold), in the popular NBC & Netflix medical drama, New Amsterdam. The series, based on the book Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital by Eric Manheimer, premiered on September 25, 2018, on NBC where it will continue this fall with Season 5. Netflix is currently airing Season 1 & 2 with plans to soon add Season 3 & 4.
She shares what is was like being on set with fellow British cast mates (Freema Agyeman, of BBC’s Doctor Who fame, who portrays oncologist “Dr. Helene Sharpe” and Janet Montgomery, who plays “Dr. Lauren Bloom”– how both she and Montgomery were pregnant in real life while Lisa’s character was also pregnant in the show. And how she returned to film the final episode of Season just 2 two-weeks after giving birth.
Adjusting to life back in the UK where her and her family have now been residing for nearly a year, Lisa recently completed filming another Netflix series (again in an American accent) and has been teaching young actors hoping to enter the acting profession.
A trained ballet dancer and singer, Lisa knew early on that she wanted to perform and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. She has consistently performed in dance-oriented shows such as Alice and the Others at Sadler's Wells and Defile at the Royal Opera House. She also played Sally Bowles in Cabaret for the Reprise Theatre Company at the Freud Playhouse where she won the LA Drama Critics Circle Award for Lead Performance.

In this Janette’s TV & Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Canadian producers, writers, actors, comediennes, besties, and stars of the show New Eden currently streaming on Crave TV, Kayla Lorette, who portrays “Katherine Wryfield” and Evany Rosen, who portrays “Grace Lee” to talk about what motivated them to pair-up and create this eight-episode true crime mockumentary that follows “Katherine” and “Grace” from women’s rights advocates and feminist cult leaders to convicts. The series which starts in a women’s commune that is supposed to be a space for sisterhood and female empowerment, may sound dark. Really it is an exploration of gender and the courts told through a comedic perspective, and an incredible who-done-it murder mystery.

Many of us are still living with COVID and the new normal, not really knowing what to expect with cases increasing, reports of more dangerous mutated strands, vaccines that are causing harm and death, and more. For women, this means juggling work, home, family, education, financial responsibilities, as well as supporting spouses. Stress levels are at an all time high with only 7% of North America women reporting they are doing OK. Suicide levels & domestic violence is also at an all time high. There’s an increased need to hanker down & take care of ourselves because as women, if we don’t, we can’t be good to anyone. However, most of us tend to put ourselves and our needs last, ignoring our mental, emotional & physical health until we can no more. If you’re near reaching your breaking point or already there, in this Janette’s TV & Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Shelley Gawith, who shares her incredible journey of self-awareness and self-preservation which led her to become a Functional Nutritionist after serving as an Investment Banker.

In February, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — better known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — confirmed they wouldn’t be returning to their royal duties. Now, less than a month later, the couple sat down with TV legend Oprah Winfrey to talk about their experiences as members of the British Royal family. The interview, titled Oprah With Meghan and Harry, aired March 7th on CBS in the U.S. and on Global in Canada. Nearly 10 days have passed since the interview aired and its after-math of one bombshell revelation after another are still newsworthy with everyone from The Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William, Beyonce, Serena Williams and Michelle Obama weighing-in on the couple’s decision to leave Royal Life behind. Before sharing they are expecting baby #2 - a girl, the couple candidly spoke of their feelings and ongoing relationships with the Queen, Prince Charles, Harry’s brother, Prince William, and his wife, Kate Middleton. Refusing to stay silent any longer, yet carefully towing the line to reveal enough but not expose all, they expressed their dismay for how Meghan was portrayed in the British media. They also relayed how disappointed they were with the Royals, or as they refer to them, “The Firm/Institution” for their constant lack of support concerning the printing of mistruths about Meghan, as well as issues of racism, their security/protection, Meghan’s mental health, the couple’s son Archie’s skin colour (being that Meghan is half-black) & Archie denied a title, and how they’re surviving without having their royal salaries to sustain them. But are Harry and Meghan truly the victims they claim to be? Or will we we soon hear the other side of this tale and discover some altered perceptions, omissions, and possible lies that may point to Harry & Meghan’s decision to leave Royal Life not being just about what they said? In this new HOT TOPICS episode, Janette’s reviews, and analysis the interview with her commentary.

New #Janette’s TV episode – Marcus Buckingham is a British author, motivational speaker and business consultant who has appeared on ABC’s The View, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, The Today Show, Larry Ling Live, The Dave Ramsey Show, and many more. He suffered from a substantial stammer which he initially found very difficult to overcome, and said he was unable to speak until the age of 13. But he conquered it when asked to formally address other boys at his prep school by pretending he was speaking to just one person, rather than 300. He went on to study at Cambridge where he was recruited by educational psychology professor Donald O. Clifton, the founder of Selection Research (SRI) which allowed businesses to identify talents in individuals and match people to the right roles. SRI acquired The Gallup Organization in 1988 and took on the Gallup name during which time Buckingham became a member of a team working on a survey that measured a broad range of factors that contribute to employee engagement. From those surveys and interviews with thousands of managers, he published with coauthor Curt Coffman, the New York Times best-seller book First, Break All the Rules. The book describes what the world’s greatest managers do differently. With over 1 million copies in print, this book was also selected as one of the 1000 Best Business Books of All Time. In 2006, Marcus started The Marcus Buckingham Company (TMBC) and created management training programs and tools. This helped him to launch a coordinated series of products in conjunction with the publishers of Go Put Your Strengths to Work. Most notable was Trombone Player Wanted, involving a young boy who wants to abandon playing the trombone in favour of the drums (based on Buckingham's own experience in music classes as a boy). Together, the book and the film series became the basis of a TMBC workshop called Simply Strengths. Janette caught up with Marcus in #Toronto, at #The Elevate Technology Conference and captured his talk on stage for this special behind-the-scenes access.

In 1969 The Brady Bunch was the first TV Show to feature a blended family of 3 boys and 3 girls that despite not being related were always kind, loving, and supportive of each other. Fifty years later, the show remains popular in replay and recently had a resurge due to The Property Brothers making-over the family home. Seems like many of us wished we formed a similar group, growing-up. But was it really like that? In this Janette’s TV episode, Janette talks with actors Susan Olsen (“Cindy”) and Mike Lookinland (“Bobby”) about the plus and minuses of playing the two youngest Brady’s, what really went on behind the scenes, and what they learned from their TV parents, veteran actors Florence Henderson (“Carol”) and Robert Reed (“Mike”) Brady.
