Some of you in the US may be familiar with 'Q' a Canadian Arts Magazine show that has been fairly successful in the last few years. It is funded by the CBC which is the state broadcaster and has had some success in the US being connected through NPR. Anyway, the host of the show is now up on Sexual Assault charges which have not been proven in court.
Here is a video of SY with the host: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBblaXFi3i0 Here is a doc about the broadcaster that was aired last night that brings the situation to its current situation. CBC also produced the doc. http://www.cbc.ca/player/Shows/ID/2619940777/ The situation sucks and the fallout is still happening. RN

Seems similar to the BBC's culture of silence which let celebrity pedos act freely for years.

yeah i read about this guy last month or so ago on gawker, and while i didn't know who this was it looks like he was pretty abusive in the sack-- slapping people around without their consent is not cool.
of course charges have not been proven in court since trials haven't yet started (i think). but it looks like there are enough victims to substantiate the charges. e.g.: http://www.cbc.ca/thecurrent/episode...re-speaks-out/ meanwhile, south of the canadian border... |
