Interviews
Gabe Foreman Spotlighted
I grew up near a place called Kakabeka Falls, northwest of Lake Superior. I came to Quebec because my partner was going to school here in Montreal. It seemed a good time to move into the city. That was four years ago. We like it here.

Interviews
Richard Sommer: Spotlighted
I always had the feeling that what I was doing was different from what other people did. Not to say that what they were doing was wrong. And what I was doing was right. It was just different.

Interviews
Susan Briscoe Spotlighted
I don't know; anybody who wants to read my work, I suppose. I really never expected to have any readers, so it has been a wonderful surprise that so many people have read my book.

Interviews
Jason Camlot

Interviews
Dr. Judit Molnár Spotlighted
I find Canadian literature kind of sad , a kind of sadness is there with which I can easily identify. Maybe it stems from the fact that Canadians have always been writing with the suspicious eyes of the USA around them.

Interviews
Gillian Sze Spotlighted
I fall somewhere between William Carlos Williams and Elizabeth Bishop. Williams says that “a poem is made up of words and the spaces between them,” and Bishop that it’s “hundreds of things coming together at the right moment.

Interviews
Ken Norris Spotlighted
Part of me is surprised that all of my poetry isn’t about beautiful women and love. In the beginning, I thought it was going to go that way.

Interviews
William St. Hilaire Spotlighted
I wish, to connect the festival with social issues, to social events. Next year is going to be the international year of the Cooperative and we’re going to piggy-back onto that. We have to be connected to world events. Literature is not only about the past, not only about the present but about the future.
