A star in every sense. The kind of colleague you'll encounter on the road who'll a) scoop you and b) offer the shirt off his back, all in the same day. To many more such adventures.

Personal Update: After 13+ years at CTV News, I’m out. Sadly, the Network scaled back all its foreign bureaus & laid off 1,300+ employees. I loved my job … but now looking forward to the next adventure!

@SouthCanadaDad @CanadianPress It’s buses and busing for us… and AP. “Bussing” means kissing (or did, in ye olden dayes). ‘Canadian English Usage’ calls the double-S spelling of buses “correct but uncommon.”
