A fabulous entourage from the Canadian Film Centre in Toronto came into Vancouver last night for a meet and greet with local film and television talent, sponsors, colleagues and friends.

Lynda Brown and Kirsten Richter from New Media BC invited Kris Krug from Bryght and myself along to reconnect and meet with local and national media folks alike.

While we mingled, popping luscious green olives in our mouths and sucking back some vino, Slawko Klymkiw, executive director of Canadian Film Centre, previously known to many from his days of devotion and excellence with the CBC, glided through the room all smiles, with his highly-known and well documented energy and enthusiasm, ensuring to meet and chat with each person in attendance.
