Video Profile: CBC’s Take
CBC put together video profiles for all of the semifinalists. Here is the one they put together for me. . .
We Made it to the SEMIFINALS!
Dear Friends,
On Friday, CBC announced the ten semifinalists in the Canada’s Next Great Prime Minister Competition. Guess what - we made it! I will be among the ten contestants fighting it out at “CNGPM Boot Camp” in Toronto from February 6th - February 9th!
Boot Camp is the last stop before the final four contestants vie for the title of CANADA’S NEXT GREAT PRIME MINISTER on national television (CBC) at 8 PM on March 18th, 2009. Alex Trebek will be hosting this year’s show, and Brian Mulroney, Joe Clark, Kim Campbell, and Paul Martin will be the judges.
My thanks to all of the people who have helped me with my campaign so far: Aaron, Andre, Anita, Annie, Emily, Gillian, Irene, Isabelle, James, Jesse, John, Kai, Kaleb, Kimberly, Ron, Shannon, and William. Thank you to everyone who commented on and rated my videos. Thank you to everyone who encouraged me along the way. I wouldn’t have gotten this far without you, and I am going to be counting on you again over the next three weeks as I prepare for boot camp.
To the other nine semi-finalists, congratulations! I look forward to meeting all of you at boot camp. I would also like to congratulate all of the candidates that didn’t make it through to the semifinals. I enjoyed watching your creative and compelling videos over the past couple of months. I hope our paths will cross again.
This competition has been a blast so far, and I can’t wait for it to continue. Thanks for following my progress, and let me know what you think!
All the best,
- David Suk
