Today, I take great pride in announcing that former Tory staffer Victoria Van Eyk will shortly be joining publicbroadcasting.ca as a film critic and Ottawa Commentator.

A few weeks ago Victoria Van Eyk attended a special screening of Martin Gero’s film Young People Fucking and lost her job for it. Conservative MP Gary Goodyear from Cambridge, Ontario, in a mad dash to avoid any association with possibly having seen the film dismissed Ms. Van Eyk from his staff.

So, out of respect for her desire to see the film before commenting on it and the sacrifice she has made for Canadian film I’ve asked her to join the team and share her commentary on the film and whatever else she deems worth talking about. Her first post should be up soon but in the mean time please join me in welcoming her aboard.
