As a broadcaster, I produced and directed television series and documentaries in a wide range of genres and on a great variety of subjects – from civil war in Central America, to the crisis in South Africa’s Apartheid system, to a series of portraits of colourful rural Canadian characters. For nearly a quarter century I held senior positions for the French and English networks of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC/Radio-Canada). From 2000 to 2005 I was the founding Director of Public Information for the Forum of Federations, a Canadian-based international network on federalism and decentralized governance, in which capacity I produced and co-wrote the educational documentaries “The Challenge of Diversity”, and "Learning About Federalism". From 2005 to 2010, I headed communications activities for the principal Canadian health statistics agency (CIHI) and the largest Canadian volunteer-sending international cooperation organization (Cuso International), and provided writing services and policy advice to non- governmental organizations, such as Tree Canada, and several Canadian government agencies (including the Canadian International Development Agency and the International Development Research Centre). In 2009, I wrote and co-directed the documentary film, “And Who Are You,” which was broadcast on the Rogers-Omni network. In the fall of 2010 my film “Never Come Back,” which depicts the oft-maligned Roma people of Europe and of Canada, was also broadcast on Omni and shown at a number of festivals. It was broadcast on CBC’s documentary channel in 2013.

My regular reports delve into areas often ignored by mainstream media and are widely distributed on social media. (See a long list of recommendations for this work, below.)
