  • Media Report: Toronto Jewish Film Festival 2018 Overview
    Media Report: Toronto Jewish Film Festival 2018 Overview Touchwood PR initiated an effective media campaign, which generated extensive coverage in television, print, radio and online media. We were successful in achieving the objectives set at the start of the campaign by generating media coverage and broadening public and media awareness of the Festival. This was done through a strategic media outreach plan and capitalizing on availability of talent, primarily Hal Linden and Ryan Ochoa, which garnered substantial media interest for the Festival. Highlights of the campaign include: ● Secured media coverage in outlets including Toronto Star, Breakfast Television, CP24 Breakfast, Canadian Jewish News, CTV Your Morning, ET Canada’s Facebook Live, Boom 97.3, Sirius XM, Zoomer, among others. ● Secured interviews for Hal Linden and Ryan Ochoa with eight major outlets. Their availability and participation in media interviews raised overall awareness for Festival and demonstrated the value in bringing high-profile talent to the Festival. In addition, knowing their availability months before the Festival was beneficial in allowing us to secure interviews. The press days went smoothly and The Samuel Project team were a delight to work with. ● Secured interviews for TJFF spokespeople in Zoomer Radio/Classical 96.3 and CBC Radio-Canada. ● Secured review coverage for TJFF titles in outlets including NOW Magazine, The Globe and Mail, CIUT 89.5 FM, Fairchild Radio, In The Seats, and Reel Roundup, among others. ● Successfully arranged ticket giveaways with online and radio outlets for films that required an extra support. These outlets promoted the Festival on their social media platforms, raising awareness for the screenings.

  • Taste Canada Announces the 2021 Shortlist of Canadian Cookbooks Competing for Canada’S One and Only Food Writing Awards
    TASTE CANADA ANNOUNCES THE 2021 SHORTLIST OF CANADIAN COOKBOOKS COMPETING FOR CANADA’S ONE AND ONLY FOOD WRITING AWARDS Storylines 1. Taste Canada releases the shortlist for the 2021 awards. 73 total entries from 9 provinces were shortlisted to 46 finalists from 6 provinces. 2. Taste Canada reveals the 2021 Virtual Gala hosts, Shahir Massoud and Ariane Paré-Le Gal. 3. Taste Canada reveals the 2021 theme: One Canada. One Kitchen. In yet another year where cooking has taken centre stage in the homes of Canadians across the country, it has never been more important to promote the incredible Canadian cookbook authors that inspire our great nation to come together through their love for cooking, and so, we are proud to introduce our theme for this year: One Canada. One Kitchen. Think we are kidding about people cooking in record numbers? According to BookNet Canada, "In our Canadian Leisure & Reading Study 2020, we asked Canadians about the leisure activities they participated in on a weekly and daily basis in 2020: cooking was in the top three on both lists. Every week, 86% of Canadians can be found in their kitchens, closely behind the 87% of Canadians who listen to music, and the 92% who watch TV, movies, or videos weekly. Day by day, 68% of Canadians are cooking, not far from the 74% of Canadians who browse social media or the web, and the 76% who watch TV, movies, or videos every day." 1.5 million cookbooks were sold in Canada in 2020 at a value of $54 million. That's a lot of inspired cooking! "We all heard about the shortage of some specific ingredients at grocery stores such as flour and yeast which were flying off the shelves, yes, together with toilet paper! Baking and cooking have been a much-welcomed source of enjoyment and “togetherness” during these past several months," said Karen Baxter, Director, Taste Canada.

  • To CTV Your Morning
    October 25, 2016 CTV Television Network P.O. Box 9, Station 'O,' Toronto, Ontario, Canada M4A 2M9 Bell Media 299 Queen Street West Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5V 2Z5 RE: Formal Complaint – Inaccurate Statements I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding inaccurate statements made on CTV’s ‘Your Morning’ program entitled, ‘The Anti-Vax Movement: Canadian Pediatricians Weigh In’ of October 18, 2016. http://www.ctv.ca/YourMorning/Video/How-do-doctors-react-to-parents-who- decide-against-vaccinations-vid974434 Numerous False Statements In the program the host, Ben Mulroney, interviews two Canadian Pediatricians, Dr. Dina Kulik and Dr. Graham Black, on the topic of how Doctors react to parents who are vaccine hesitant. Dr. Kulik makes a number of false statements that require correction. In response to parent’s concerns about the use of preservatives in vaccines, Dr. Kulik states: “The reality is there is no mercury in Canadian vaccines.” This statement is clearly at odds with information provided by the Public Health Agency of Canada - Statement on Seasonal Influenza Vaccine for 2016. 1 In Appendix A of this document, (a portion attached) the Public Health Agency clearly identifies thimerosal (mercury) in six (6) influenza vaccines alone. This does not take into consideration the known use of thimerosal in the manufacture of other Canadian vaccines. Dr. Kulik also states: “The amount of aluminum is miniscule amounts” and “less than the amount in breast milk and formula.” Dr. Kulik seems unaware there is a significant difference in the rate of absorption between ingesting aluminum and injecting aluminum into muscle tissue.

  • Csas '21: Schitt's Creek, Cardinal and Trickster
    CSAs ’21: Schitt’s Creek, Cardinal and Trickster lead TV noms Schitt's Creek and Cardinal are up for Best Comedy Series and Best Drama Series, respectively, while Trickster earned seven performance nods. The final season of Schitt’s Creek has led nominations for the Canadian Screen Awards for the second year in a row, followed by the dramas Cardinal and Trickster. Emmy and Golden Globe winner Schitt’s Creek (Not a Real Company Productions) earned 21 nominations total for the year – coming under its record-breaking haul in 2020 – including Best Comedy Series where it will compete against Baroness Von Sketch Show (Frantic Films), Kim’s Convenience (Thunderbird Entertainment), Letterkenny (New Metric Media) and Workin’ Moms (Wolf + Rabbit Entertainment). CTV’s Cardinal (Sienna Films, eOne) and CBC’s Trickster (Sienna Films) tied for the second-most nominations coming in at 15, with Cardinal up for Best Drama Series alongside Burden of Truth (ICF Films, Eagle Vision, eOne), Departure (Shaftesbury), Transplant (Sphere Media) and Vikings (Take 5 Productions). Trickster was not nominated in the Best Drama Series category, but it received seven nominations for its performers along with additional nods in the craft categories. One thing the top-nominated series do have in common is all of them ended in 2020 – Schitt’s Creek and Cardinal ended their multi-season runs and Trickster was cancelled by CBC ahead of planned season two after the Indigenous identity of showrunner Michelle Latimer was called into question. On the unscripted side, the most-nominated reality or competition series is Canada’s Drag Race (Blue Ant Studios) with seven total, including Best Reality/Competition Program or Series.
