National coverage

[Deborah A. Cottreau]

Gaetan et al,

I never really understood how "Torontocentric" this country was until I
moved further and further away from the so-called "centre".  If you feel
this way in Montreal, Canada's second largest urban centre, imagine how
they feel in St John's where they do some amazing, kick-ass work, or haow
they feel here in Saskatchewan, which, generally speaking, is overlooked
by the rest of Canada most of the time -- except, of course, when Lepage
comes to co-direct...
