Her Glory Sky Morning of Love  6:32 am

Her Sunrise of Yellow Love Light  6:38 am

This morning at Starbucks, I waited in line, and two women at the counter were happy to see each other. One wore a pale pink sweater, while her friend wore black and white, along with a heart shaped jewel pendant that I have seen somewhere before. The room was quite full today. Energy was very high. There were 22 people in the room, and 5 conversations. The woman named Hyacinthe said hello. We talked about nothing.  I said, “We don’t know nothing that well.” Nothing is a very big subject. There’s a lot more to nothing than something. Without nothing, something can’t be what it is.

And without love, could neither be free. The room was quite filled by something this morning. Alert presence, lively talking. Music was soulful and upbeat. A woman arrived wearing a purple, grey and pink scarf. Red stood out to my view. I wore my red T-shirt today, and it instantly aligned with the red fabric of the clothing of people that also wore red. Talking blended and flowed without effort. My own energy was very high. Anna showed me the sky, down by her river of love. And the morning sky filled me with yellow. I was infused with her yellow light love.

Coming into Being  6:41 am

And I loved Anna Dirksen deeply the very first thing in the morning. My heart for the day was Anna-laced. She showed me the lovely sky morning, and she showed me the yellow tree glowing, and then to her garden of love by the road. And I longed for Anna for to hold. And when I returned home, I flowed through her river of love, with the land in silence and triangle. And she showed me the clock tower centered as middle, marking time in discrete images. And she showed me downtown centered by soulmates. And I was so centered with love. A woman arrived wearing a pink and blue jacket, with a baby firmly strapped to her by a harness. She wore a pink green and white striped top. Her older child, her daughter wore a pink coat as well. They sat together at the table.

The little girl ate her big cookie. Her pink hat on the table, and her pink coat on her chair. An Asian woman in pink sat nearby them at her computer. At first I thought that was red. She had a pale blue coat on her chair. A woman arrived wearing a green coat, with a pink patterned scarf around her neck. It was a beautiful November 1^st morning. I wished that Anna were with me. The sky was nearly clear blue. Light patterns of clouds were in distant view. Sunlight was bright; it was crisp. Long shadows and depth of field had returned. It was quite ripe for photography. And a woman arrived wearing a black coat, with a pink zippered sweater and hood.

And I longed for Anna to hold. She is my flower fountain of soul. I treasure her heart of gold. So solid, so pure and delicious, Anna Dirksen is my purple star priestess. She wears a crystal chi crown. Her light shines to my core like joy diamond. She holds the key to magnificence. She purifies the ground of my heart’s temple. She’s the prime pearl of my heart’s well. Her compass affirms my alignment, in this one world medicine wheel. She brings my darkness to light. She makes it more real and more balanced. With Anna Dirksen, I am entranced.

Time Bridges Her Black Potency  5:18 pm

On my way home, on the sidewalk on Monkland, I saw the words written in pink exhorting all not to eat fish, because fish are our friends, not food.  Out on the roof, starlings chirped, making a variety of warbling noises. The breeze rustled the leaves briskly. A deep dry tone the autumn leaves now made, replaced the light frothy hiss of green leaves that the summertime kissed. Sunlight shone through the trees that were lined down the street. Some trees were yellow, some were bare, and some trees remained green. The sky was a pale blue and serene.

Her Black Potency Centered with Time 6:25 pm

Wispy strands of white cloud faint and passing remained in the background as traces and fossils. As slight touches they were enhancing my dream. The sunlight was warm; it was steady. It created long shadows on buildings already. It felt like late afternoon, but Anna makes my heart swoon. Celebrating the essence pattern our love makes. Cathedral stone, candlelight, oil for baby. Her river of love flowed through my soul all day long.

Soulmates Centered Quite Well  11:25 pm

Very briefly, on the Simpsons, Homer goes to a mental institution where he meets a man who claims to be Michael Jackson, but the man looks nothing like him. Michael Jackson helps Bart write a birthday song for Lisa, to cheer her up because he forgot it. On Frasier, Frasier goes to the wedding of a Greek relative and his advice manages to undo the marriage, but he reunites a couple of jugglers.

On CBC News at Six, Michel Godbout wore a black jacket with grey pinstripes, a white shirt and a golden yellow tie, and a Remembrance Day poppy. An unforeseen technical glitch lost the intro for tonight’s program on my tape, and so, I pick up from what I’ve got.

The first story, Michel continues, “…open since 2002. It’s the cultural hub, really of Montreal’s Italian community. It offers classes, activities, sports, theatre –and of course, a lot more. It’s a place to just hang out, and really that’s what we’ll be doing for the next half-hour. We’ve got some special programming that’s coming up. But first, let’s go straight to today’s news. And we begin with a little –well, we’re going to go a little north of here, in Laval. Police have surrounded a building in the Chomedy district all day pretty much. Now, dozens of officers and a SWAT team were called to 75^th Avenue and Levesque Boulevard. They were looking for 5 men who they suspect were involved in a kidnapping earlier this morning. Now, our Peter Johnson is live on the scene tonight. Now Peter, what’s the latest in this?”

Peter Johnson, wearing a black coat, a white shirt and a black tie, along with his Remembrance Day poppy, begins, “Well, Michel, you might be able to see that the traffic on Levesque Boulevard West, here in the Chomedy sector of Laval has been opened again. Now, just moments ago the Laval police SWAT team tactical squad finally went into an apartment just a little bit behind me, to verify. They were looking for 5 men they believe may have been involved in a kidnapping and a beating. After several hours of trying to figure out if there was even anyone inside the apartment or not, they finally went in, and discovered that the apartment was indeed empty. However, they do say their investigation is continuing. It all got started early this morning, about 7 o’clock. They got a call from a man who said that he had been kidnapped and beaten by 5 men. He said he managed to escape from the apartment, make his way to a local restaurant. And that’s where he called police. Now, from that moment, police came in and set up a relatively wide perimeter around the apartment –the house in question, and spent a good chunk of the day just trying to figure out if there was even anyone inside. And as we just found out a few minutes ago, the apartment was indeed empty. But, as I mentioned, police say they’re investigation will continue from here.”

Michel asks, “Okay, please, do we have any idea, Peter, what’s gonna happen next in this?”

Peter Johnson replies, “Well, police investigators are inside. They’re trying to figure out if there’s any physical evidence suggesting that the crime in question may have taken place or not. They’re trying to see if there’s any physical evidence left on the scene. And as I say, their investigation will continue from here. Michel?”

Michel closes, “Alright, Peter Johnson in Laval tonight. Thanks.” Peter replies, “You’re very welcome.”

Michel continues the second story, “Well, staying in Laval, a couple of home invaders picked the wrong night to do their dirty work. Police had put more cars and officers on the road because of Halloween. So, they were able to rescue a Laval couple quickly. Now, this couple had opened their door to two masked men with a gun. The suspects were trying… well, actually tied up the couple, when police arrived. And they arrested them. Police say, the two suspects are not connected to the other home invasions that have taken place in Laval recently.”

The third story, “Well, police are looking for a serial rapist in Montreal North. They say, he’s assaulted 7 women in the past 3 months. Now, police say the suspect is between 18 and 25 years old. He’s thin and stands about 5 ft 7 in. tall. They say, he’s been targeting young women during the day, near the corner of Maurice Duplessis and Langelier in Montreal North. And police fear he’s becoming more dangerous. They say, during an attack earlier in August, he wasn’t armed. But last month he had a knife in his hand. Police also say, the suspect tends to flee if the victims resist or fight back.”

The fourth story, “Well, it’s been 7 weeks since a gunman walked into Dawson College with a gun and started shooting. He killed 1 woman and wounded 19 others before taking his own life. Well today, the survivors are trying to move on. And some are trying to toughen up Canada’s gun control laws. Nancy Wood reports.”

Nancy Wood begins, “Even walking the dogs is an effort for Josh Perl these days. The18-year-old was shot in the elbow at Dawson.”

‘It ricochet and entered through the back of my arm, when he was shooting directly at us.’

Nancy Wood reports, “His arm has healed, but he’s far from over it.”

Josh Perl, Shooting Victim, explains, “In the last month I’ve had a lot of panic attacks. I ran for the hospital like 6 times –and it’s terrible. I haven’t slept well in a month. And I can’t … simple everyday tasks, I found myself so sluggish, and I can’t do much, many things.”

Nancy Wood reports, “It was so emotionally draining to go to school that he dropped out.”

Josh Perl, Shooting Victim, explains, “It’s like a roller coaster of emotions every time I go. And I just can’t handle it anymore.”

Nancy Wood, wearing a red coat with a light pink scarf, informs, “Students who were injured in the shooting are on the road to recovery. Only one of them is still in hospital. But that’s the physical recovery. How they’re coping psychologically with what happened to them varies widely.”

Nancy Wood reports, “Hayder Khadim was shot in the head, neck and leg. He’s thrown all his energy into fighting for tougher gun control.”

Hayder Khadim, Shooting Victim, announces, “That is why I, Hayder Khadim, am challenging my prime minister, Stephen Harper, to a public debate on gun control… I want him to explain to me why he thinks that in a country like Canada people should be free to legally own such firearms –which have left 20 victims suffering, along with their families.”

Nancy Wood informs, “Meaghan Hennegan has started physiotherapy for her arm. And seems ready to move on emotionally as well, after a recent visit to Dawson.”

Meaghan Hennegan, Shooting Victim, explains, “I realized that nothing was gonna happen, and it was only a place. And it wasn’t that place’s fault that it happened. It was okay to back there, and be there, and have fun again.”

Nancy Wood adds, “But she thinks she’ll make a fresh start at a new school, when she’s ready to get back to her studies –probably next year. Nancy Wood, CBC News, Montreal.”

Back live, at the Leonardo da Vinci Centre, Michel continues, “Alright, time to check in on the weather. And it’s rare to have Geeta Nadkarni sitting at my side. It’s quite nice, actually.” Geeta replies, “Oh, thank you.” Michel asks, “So, what do you have for us tonight?”

Geeta Nadkarni, wearing knee-length black boots, a grey skirt and grey vest, along with a long sleeved white blouse, and a silver pendant necklace, replies, “Well actually, it’s almost a pity to be indoors, because it’s really beautiful out there. It’s been gorgeous all day long. We hit a seasonal high for once in a while. We hit a seasonal high of 9 degrees. The sun has gone down now, so it is a comfortable 6 degrees in Montreal. It’s really beautiful though. And for once, after all this bad news, after all this wet weather, I have nothing but good news for you. So there you go.” Michel comments, “That’s a rare thing lately. And we’re quite happy about that.” Geeta adds, “I’ll tell you more later.” Michel says, “Alright, we’ll see you later. Thanks a lot, Geeta.”

Michel continues, “Alright, moving on to some other news now: Mayor Gérald Tremblay is not backing down on plans to change the name of Parc Avenue. You know, all 3 councilors in the area are opposed to renaming the street after former Premier, Robert Bourassa. Now, Gérald Tremblay says, he still likes the idea. But, he says, council will vote on the issue at the end of November –and he’ll respect the majority decision.”

Mayor Gérald Tremblay explains, “… feedback from the citizens –it can’t be more democratic. Because, now everyone’s talking about this issue –it’s like it would be the end of the world if something happens. We’re not gonna end the world. We’re continuing to manage the city. It’s not an issue that’s gonna change the future of the city of Montreal. And people are pushing this, as if it was something that is dividing our caucus, dividing city council. I think it’s democracy at its best. It’s the citizens having an opportunity to voice their concern with their elected representatives, and vote according to their conscience –and there will be no reprisal.”

And then, Marianna Simeone, wearing a black leather jacket and an orange red scarf, begins, “I’m Marianna Simeone on Parc Avenue. Tonight, I’ll give you my take on the latest developments surrounding the name change controversy. That’s coming up, on CBC News at Six.”

Michel continues, “Alright, time for a quick break. But there’s plenty ahead of course, on the show tonight. I’ll talk to the captain of the Montreal Impact about Montrealers and other Canadians have become soccer crazy –you probably know that. And we’ll look at the precursor of the Leonardo da Vinci Centre, the Casa Italia. That, plus the weather forecast just ahead, on CBC News at Six –on location live tonight, from St-Leonard.” And then, the first commercial break.

Upon returning, “Alright. CBC News at Six is on location tonight, and for the next 3 Wednesdays. We’re live in St-Leonard, right in the heart of this borough, at the Leonardo Da Vinci Centre. Now you know, this building serves Montreal’s Italian community. But before that, there was another community centre called Casa Italia. It was the hub of Little Italy. But as the building and community aged, it began to lose its meaning. But as our Leah Hendry reports, the Casa may be on the verge of a rebirth.”

Leah Hendry reports, “At Casa d’Italia, Joe Fratino holds the keys. He knows every corner of this building. He first came here more than 30 years ago –his father-in-law insisted.”

‘I became member of the Casa in 1970. And, because I think that was… That must have been a must if I wanted to marry his daughter, I guess.”

Leah Hendry adds, “And the Casa became a big part of his life. His wedding reception was here. He later ran the restaurant. And he sits on the Board.”

Joe Fratino explains, “Everything just fell into the equation of this Casa Italia. So, that’s why I’m still here, maybe.”

Leah Hendry informs, “The Casa was built in 1936. In its heyday, it was a place to meet and unite as Italians. Fratino wants to fill these empty halls with life again.”

Joe Fratino explains, “This is what our mission of the new project is –to turn around and show the people, and the youth, the culture of the Italian culture –and not just the Italian, but also the Canadian-Italian culture, which is important to show them. And our history.”

Leah Hendry reports, “The plan is to turn the building into something akin to Pier 21 –and educational centre that documents not just the arrival of immigrants, but their life after. Pietro Gasparini is in charge of the Casa’s archives. He believes they’re vital to the project.”

Pietro Gasparini explains, “It’s all treasures. And the important for us, for the archive committee as well –we wanna make sure this stuff is properly taken care of. This shouldn’t be in a cabinet underneath the stair. I think a very big shame is, I can explain to my children my story, my grandparent’s story, but there’s a more bigger macro picture that has to be told. I guess the vision is just for someone come in, and to be pulled into the community.”

Leah Hendry informs, “But building the new Casa takes money –four and a half million dollars. The community already has half. They’ll raise the rest through fundraising. Pasquale Iacobacci is responsible for the Casa’s reconstruction. Iacobacci wants to preserve parts of the building –even the controversial parts. This is Mussolini’s symbol of the Fascist State.”

Pasquale Iacobacci, Project Manager, explains, “It recalls a period we are not proud of. I’m of the belief that history is something that stays with us, and should teach us a lesson.”

Leah Hendry adds, “At the new Casa, this empty space will become a hub of activity: language classes, Italian cooking, dance, art exhibitions. It’s an idea Joe Fratino has dreamt about for years –passing on a part of himself to his grandson.”

Joe Fratino explains, “I’ve had some very good moments in this building here, and in the Italian community, and the church, and just the little area here. So, I guess that’s what I want him to feel.”

Leah Hendry closes, “If Fratino has his way, his grandson could have those feelings by 2008. Leah Hendry, CBC News, Montreal.”

Michel continues, “Now, if you took a straw poll in St-Leonard on what the favorite sport is in this part of Montreal, well, I’ll bet you the answer would be soccer. Back in July, this place went, of course, crazy, when Italy won the World Cup. In fact, there’s a soccer pitch right here, on the Leonardo da Vinci Centre, inside this building. Earlier today, I had a chance to go there and chat about the appeal of soccer, of course, with the Montreal Impact’s captain, Mauro Biello.”

Michel begins, “Mauro Biello soccer is now becoming more popular in Canada than hockey –who would have thought that? But why is that?”

Mauro Biello, Captain, Montreal Impact, replies, “Well, I think for starters, it’s a sport that’s not too expensive for parents. And a lot of kids are playing it now in the summer. And I think, you know, as much as hockey is a very old sport in this country, soccer’s fairly new. And I think the numbers are starting to grow every year. And we see that throughout the summer in the fields, and throughout the parks, where there’s so many kids playing. And possibly also because of the baseball. The reason that baseball, on the decline. Parents are more inclined to put their children into soccer. So, we’ve seen this great progression of soccer.”

Michel asks, “Now, what kind of impact can that have, say, on Canada, on the international level. Because, as we know, we’re not very competitive on that point of view.”

Mauro Biello, Captain, Montreal Impact, replies, “I think that because of the fact of all these kids playing, I think Canada on the international level right now, is not as strong as many other nations. I think that with years, these young kids that are playing now, eventually they’ll become coaches, they’ll become people that are passionate about the sport. And become qualified instructors for these kids. And I think that’ll have a spillover effect for the sport.”

Michel asks, “You talk about grassroots level. There are initiatives, like a soccer clinic –we’re in the Da Vinci soccer centre, as maybe we could put it –and you’re part of that. I mean, what kind of impact does that have on kids?”

Mauro Biello, Captain, Montreal Impact, replies, “Well, I think that for ourselves, myself and Nick DeSantis, we have a company –a soccer school company, called First There’s Soccer. And we offer clinics for kids, actually right here at Leonardo Da Vinci. And I think it’s important .I think it’s important for us as a club, being part of The Impact, to be out in the community, and trying to help out these kids. And like I said, there’s not many qualified coaches in soccer right now. And we’re… us as professionals, we can add our expertise and our experience within the sport. And hopefully we can help these kids develop much better.”

Michel closes, “Well, we hope so too. Mauro Biello, thanks so much.” Mauro replies, “Thank you very much.”

Michel continues, “And by the way, part of the proceeds of the soccer clinic we just mentioned go to the Vita Children’s Foundation. That’s a fund that helps children affected with cancer.”

“Alright, still to come: Marianna Simeone’s take on the controversial name change of Parc Avenue. But up next, Geeta Nadkarni is here with weather forecast. You’re watching CBC News at Six, live on location, from the Leonardo da Vinci Centre in St-Leonard.” And then, the second commercial break.

Upon returning, “And we’re back. Thanks for sticking around. CBC News at Six is on location, of course, tonight –coming to you live from the Leonardo da Vinci Centre, right in St-Leonard. Well, let’s move on to some stories locally, really, about this community. You know, just, well a short 50 years ago, this borough was farmland as far as the eyes could see. But all that changed, as waves of Italian immigrants made it their home. Now these days, the face of the neighbourhood is changing again We asked a long-time resident to show us the St-Leonard he knows and loves.”

“Hi, my name is Nino Colavecchio, and I’ve lived in St-Leonard since 1966. Jean Talon Street, which we’re on right now, is really the centre of this city. We are in front of the scene of the first language riots here, in the late 60’s. And Jean Talon Street, of course, is where it all happened. Jarry Street was at the heart of the early St-Leonard. When it was a French Canadian village in fact, before the wave of immigration. So, this home behind me is representative of the type of homes that were right along Jarry Street here. And all the land behind, which is now populated, was farmland. This is Café Milano –one of my favorite places in St-Leonard. Apart from the great coffee, one of the wonderful things about this place is the people that you meet. One of the things I love about St-Leonard is the fact that we have a lot of green spaces. A lot of them have been maintained in their original state –so much so, that right here in the city, you can visit a cave all summer.”

Michel continues, “But you know, after 40 years here in St-Leonard, Nino Colavecchio may be leaving. He’s running for the PQ in the next election. And if elected, he says, he’ll move to his riding, of course.”

And then, the CBC News Weather Centre bells start to ring. Michel begins, “Okay, time to check the weather. And well, we needed a day like this today –sunny and warm, for this time of year -and a great day to be weather reporter. Geeta Nadkarni is outside. Geeta, what’s coming up?”

Geeta Nadkarni, wearing a black coat with pale pink fluffy gloves, a thick and big pink fluffy scarf, and a thick and pink fluffy fall hat, and she replies, “Well, Michel, honestly, if I made the weather, all fall would be like this. It is absolutely beautiful out here. I’m so happy to be outside to be honest. We hit a seasonal high of 9 degrees in Montreal. And honestly, in the sun, it felt even higher –it felt more like 14. Right now, the sun has gone down, and we’ve dropped down to 6 degrees. But I have great news. It’s going to stay dry. Yay! If we look at those satellite and radar maps, we see not a lot of anything. Not a lot of precipitation, not a lot of green stuff –hardly any cloud cover even. And it was a nice, sunny day in Montreal today. We did see a little bit of rain, a little bit of snow in Val D’Or and in Chibougamau. But for the Eastern Townships, Quebec City, and Montreal, it was a nice sunny day, with hardly any cloud cover. And that’s brought to us by a fairly stable weather system. It is a cold one though. So, we will see those temperatures plummet, as the week progresses. But the precipitation, it’s not going to come back. So, the weekend’s looking pretty fine from all the data that I’ve seen so far –and I’ll get to that in just a moment. And the moment, let’s go look at the temperature highs for tomorrow. They are, yes, below seasonal. Seasonal norms for Montreal at the moment are 9 degrees. We’re only expecting a high of 7 for tomorrow. And there’s 60% chance of flurries for Sept-Iles. So, I know today’s Wednesday. So, it’s hump day, right? This is when your thoughts start drifting towards the weekend –I know at least mine do. And if you’re thinking about outdoor activities, the answer is yes! Go for it! Plan as many outdoor activities as possible. Because it’s looking really, really nice. You will have to bundle up. If we look at that 3-day forecast, you’ll see sun, sun and more sun. We will see a few cloudy breaks, and yes, those temperatures do dip below freezing. But for the most part, it’s going to be absolutely glorious. And Michel, you know what? I went out this afternoon for a walk on my lunch break. And you know how we always warn people about the winter and stuff? I think we should put out a warning about –not a warning but a sort of happy thing about how when the sun’s out, it actually feels warmer than it actually is. So yes, it’ll be 7 degrees tomorrow, in Montreal. But if you walk out in the sunshine, it’ll feel more like 10.” There you go, Michel.” Michel comments, “Alright. A little like today. And thanks, Geeta, for using the S-word there. That is to say, Sun.”

Michel continues, “Aright, stick around, because after the break, Marianna Simeone –a very popular figure here, will join me with her take on the controversial name change of Parc Avenue. CBC News at Six will be right back, live, from the Leonardo da Vinci Centre, in St-Leonard.” And then, the third commercial break. “

Upon returning, “Welcome back. And joining me now, is a new member of the CBC News at Six team -Marianna Simeone. She’s our city columnist. And welcome, of course again. It’s nice to be joining you live.” Marianna replies, “Hello, Michel.” Michel continues, “Now, Marianna has been with us for a little over a month now, as city columnist. And I think you’re starting to like this role, eh?”

Marianna Simeone, wearing a grey business skirt with a matching grey blazer, replies, “Oh, very much, Michel. I mean, I get to give you my take on issues and stories that concern us all. And today, of course, is the perfect example: I’ll give you my take on the latest chapter in Parc Avenue saga.”

Marianna Simeone, wearing a black fall coat along with an orange red scarf, begins, “Today, the people of Parc Avenue are one step closer to saving l’Avenue du Parc –make that 3 votes closer. It all happened yesterday. (…) mayor, Helen Fotopulos announced that she and her councilors will vote against the proposed name change. But it will take more than 3 votes to defeat the motion –it will take 33 to be exact. Some city councilors though, think the fight may already be lost. Just listen to what Marvin Rotrand had to say.”

Marvin Rotrand, City Councilor, explains, “If it comes to just a vote in council, I’m sure it’s gonna pass. And partially because a lot of my Francophone colleagues seem to think there’s an Anglophone issue.”

Marianna Simeone continues, “Well, on this Mr. Rotrand, your Francophone colleagues have it all wrong. This is not an English-French thing. This fight belongs to Montrealers whose mother tongue is neither. It belongs to the immigrants, to their children, and their grandchildren. Parc Avenue runs deep in our collective consciousness: The Jews, the Greek, the Armenians, the Indians, Bangladeshi, have made this street their home. The fight to save Parc Avenue is about saving a part of their history –of who they are, and what they’ve built in this city. The last time I checked, there were quite a few city councilors that shared that same history. Come November 27^th, they should not forget their past. On Parc Avenue, I’m Marianna Simeone. And that’s my take.”

Back live, Michel continues, “Alright, Marianna, another solid stance there, right?”

Marianna Simeone replies, “That’s right, Michel. Though of course, that is my position –it’s my take. But I’d really like to know what our viewers think So let me know –what is your take? Send me an email at marianna.simeone@cbc.ca, or call our talk back line, at 597-5626. I’d love to hear from you.”

Michel closes, “Alright, Marianna Simeone, thanks.” Marianna replies, “Thank you, Michel.” Michel adds, “See you again this week.”

Michel continues, “Alright now, before we go, I just want to tell you that we’re, of course, on location next Wednesday. And here’s the location we’re going to be at. We’re heading through the borough of Cote-des-Neiges-NDG. We will be coming live from the Ben Weider Jewish Community Centre, at the corner of Cote-Ste-Catherine Road, of course. And that’s one week from tonight. We hope you turn out and come see us. And that was Montreal today. Canada Now is next. And for the entire CBC News at Six team, I’m Michel Godbout. We’ll see you tomorrow at 6:00.” The live audience applauds.
