We didn’t win the Gemini, but we did enjoy our evening with the industry big wigs.  Pete and Deb joined Joanne and me at the awards gala, which featured fabulous comedian Ron James as emcee.

A Documentary about Operation Katrina

The Mississippi coast was extremely devastated after Hurricane Katrina unleashed her fury on August 29, 2005.

Doug, Pete, and Buddy

Acting on gut reaction and emotion, a Canadian trucker and his blind dog set out to do what the government said "could not be done." Peter Bruno rallied concerned citizens of Durham Region in Ontario to donate relief goods, and then traveled over 1200 miles to deliver them. Peter ended up being the first long haul trucker into the hardest hit area getting the least amount of help. His destination: Camp Coast Care in Long Beach, a gathering place for relief workers and volunteers from around the world. There, they minister to the needs of victims whose homes have been reduced to piles of rubble.

This compelling story of a man with a mission, does not end there. Peter is determined to do more, but he faces a huge personal obstacle. One year later the documentary takes you back to Mississippi to witness what has been accomplished to rebuild lives and homes in the aftermath of North America’s worst natural disaster.
