Charles:
Just got back from the Atlantic Journalism Awards ceremony here in Halifax where the CBC's reporting of your arrest at the Atlantica conference swept the spot news television awards. I sent you a picture of me and cameramen Denis Butler (brother of Edith Butler) and Roger Cosman from the ceremony. The news story won the award for best television spot news story of the year and Denis and Roger tied for best spot news footage for their camera work on the story. Denis filmed the protesters coming down King Street and breaking into the Trade and Convention Centre and Roger shot the stuff of you getting arrested.
We were thinking of you tonight Charles and thought you'd be interested.

I'm always a little dicey on Bob's reporting but this was a good story and deserved to win. Without the video it's hard to say if the outcome of Charles trial would have been the same. The video and story sealed the deal. I'm still trying to figure out why the Crown let the charges proceed.
Its Because they are corrupt even more than the police and hoped charles wouldnt show up so they could win by a default!
