Some sad news to report: this week, I was laid off from my job at Xtra. I just want to thank my very talented coworkers, and especially the many, many LGBT folks from around Canada and the world who shared their stories with me these past three years.

Some personal news. Last week was my final one with the National Post. After 20 years, I decided to take a buyout and move on to new professional challenges, specifics to be determined.

It's my last day at Global after 19 years, 33 on radio/TV in Calgary, 41 in broadcasting. I anchor the Noon News, write my final story on my secret passion collecting Hot Wheels, then say goodbye 5/6 newscasts. Thank you everyone. It's been a great time. @GlobalCalgary #yyc
