All my documentaries produced to date for television happen to be re-broadcast or premiered on various Canadian TV channels this month:

On Monday, October 8 at 9 pm ET and 8 pm PT, Vision TV is re-broadcasting Cuba: Country of Souls about Afro-Cuban, Christian and political beliefs four decades after the 1959 Cuban Revolution, on the series From the Soul.

On Wednesday, October 17 at 9 pm and 1 am ET, the Women's Television Network is premiering Mary McCarthy: Our Lady in Havana on the series Herstory. The film is a profile of the 101-year old Irish-Catholic from St. John's, Newfoundland, and her life in communist Cuba since 1925.

The new digital Documentary Channel is re-broadcasting three documentaries on the series Director's Cut, all at 10 pm ET: 

On Monday, October 29, In Exile: American Draft Resisters and Deserters in Canada, my first work in documentary as associate producer and film editor, completed in 1972;

On Tuesday, October 30, Our Hiroshima, about the Canadian involvement in the creation of the first atom bombs;

On Wednesday, October 31, The Photographer: An Artist's Journey, an analysis of the work of the Jamaican-Toronto visual artist Michael Chambers.

The Photographer can also be seen at various times on Bravo, the Saskatchewan Communications Network, and PrideVision. Cuba: Country of Souls --under the alternate title At the Crossroads: Faith in Cuba --also runs on the Saskatchewan Communications Network and the Knowledge Network; Our Hiroshima on the Biography Channel; and Mary McCarthy on CBC Newfoundland and Labrador and the Saskatchewan Communications Network.
