The best thing about doing radio is you never know who is listening.
In this case it was a guy by the name of Monroe, with the CanWest Fall Launch.

Being from the states I was unfamiliar with Canwest. Turns out they are affiliated with 22 networks in Canada; National Geographic, BBC Canada, Global, food network, to name a few.

Due to Monroe’s recommendation, I received an email from Lynn Harvey who found me through my website. Lynn was the producer from Enter the Picture Productions (the creative team behind the launch). The email read, “Fran would you be willing to do your fast talking skills for a presentation reading a long list of the shows of network. It’s a glitzy event… you’d fly into Toronto the night before, do a rehearsal, wake up early for hair and makeup the next morning and do the 9 am presentation? The event is taking place at the beautifully refurbished, Elgin Theater in downtown Toronto, and many TV stars would be on hand to kick off the fall launch.” It sounded wonderful so of course I accepted. Her colleagues, Chris and Mark, arranged everything and a week later I was on a plane to Canada.
