Dear Mr. MacLeod:

From your website bio you certainly have had a lot of very interesting jobs. We're big fans of your show because of the quality of the local and national news coverage. The Urban Myths series initially applied to Winnipeg neighbourhoods then expanded to Manitoba businesses was outstanding and, in our view, worthy of a radio industry award!

On this morning's 5:30 local news segment, a gentleman was interviewed about the need for a universal Metis identity card which would be honoured throughout Canada and universally should an individual move from Canada. This, for example, would enable such people to participate in Manitoba Metis Federation elections should they so choose.

We checked www.cbc.ca/manitoba but could find no reference to the aformentioned discussion. Do you know if there will be press/internet coverage of this story? Failing that, could you provide us with the gentleman's particulars offline (pieuk@shaw.ca/237-7063 - voice mail available) so we can contact him regarding an article for this blogsite?

Sincerely,

Clare L. Pieuk
