ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
I am here tonight because of the grace and humility of one guy watching from
Montreal. Ryan Larkin, I dedicate this award to you. And I'm sharing this award
with Steve Hoban for Copper Heart Entertainment. Steve, you and Mark Smith were
with me from the very beginning. You guys are troopers. And to Marcy Page from
the National Film Board of Canada. You guys are visionaries in Canadian
filmmaking. The Canada Council for the Arts, Seneca College. Dave Baas and my
crew. You guys know who you are. You are the most inspired and dedicated people
I've ever worked with. And to my darling, Jody, I love you so much. And finally
to the Academy for continuing to support short filmmaking in all its forms. I
cannot tell you how cool that is. |
