Here we go. Tommy Smythe and I couldn't be prouder of the It Gets Better Canada video, it was posted on YouTube yesterday at around 5pm and has already reached more than 1,600 hits. Major thanks again for everyone's unfailing support on the project, and we have to give a shout out to the incredible crew who worked behind the scenes, including director Jean-Marc Piché, everyone at Peace Point Entertainment Group, the team at Imported Artists, and Corinne McDermott. Thanks too to Audrey Hyams-Romoff and Amanda Losier, and the rest of the stellar crew at OverCat Communications. Oh, and a special hello, we think you're just great! to the CBC's online, radio and television news, as well as Rick Mercer and George Stroumboulopoulos for being so kind and getting the word out.
So, what's next? Well, we're planning on expanding the video into something longer (that's what happens when you get an incredible 10 hours of interviews) and would love to be able to offer it as a resource to schools and anyone else who'd like to screen it. In other words, this is just the beginning.
