"For 2003 the Gemini Awards will be held over three nights in October. The Gemini Documentary, News and Sports Gala will take place on October 18, 2003. The Industry Gala will take place on October 19, 2003 and the Gemini Awards Gala will take place on October 20, 2003."
For everyone's information, Leora was the producer of the JW show, titled "Spiritual Shephards" that aired on The Fifth Estate on January 29, 2003.
Leora works for both CBC's The Fifth Estate and CTV's W5.
I would like to congratulate Leora on this nomination. She was fun to work with and really wanted my personal opinion after the show aired.
However, Linda Guerrerio, the Associate Producer deserves a lot of credit for this nomination, including listening to me. And most of all I would like to thank all survivors, advocates and insiders who had the guts to come forward to make this show possible. If it wasn't for all of you, this nomination, public alert and giving victims/survivors a serious voice would not have occurred.
CBC now has there promo up for the September 3, 2003 show.
