On the Bright Side

Politicians and writers come together at the annual Politics and the Pen dinner at the Chateau Laurier in Ottawa. The event raises money for the Writers’ Trust of Canada and awards the Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing. This year's winner was author Marcello Di Cintio for his book, Walls: Travels Along the Barricades. Puneet Birgi brings us some of the event's highlights. (March 6, 2013)

I know first hand the contributions of Canadians of African heritage. I was raised in Toronto. My friends were of many ethnic origins.
