4 Comments

From Bruce Kirkland of QMI Agency:

  • ‘Heartland’ star likes going country
    “The city kid goes to the country — and likes it! Graham Wardle, one of the appealing young leads in the Canadian TV series Heartland, was born in Mission, B.C., but grew up entirely in greater Vancouver. So Alberta’s Big Sky country, where Heartland is filmed, is a revelation and part of the show’s appeal to both him and the public.” Read more.

  • Quality Canadian shows exist
    “But the constant complaining about problems with government funding, government regulations and the private sector’s penchant for buying American has had one unfortunate side effect. It makes it appear that there is nothing Canadian to celebrate. Wrong. And the new release of two box sets, Heartland: The Complete First Season and Heartland: The Complete Second Season is a poignant reminder.” Read more.
