Join the Hello Cool World outreach team at the Ridge Theatre tonight (Wed, April 27) from 7pm-9pm for a special 65_RedRoses screening. We'll be there with our cameras taking photos paparazzi-style, interviewing guests for our blog and promoting the #4Eva Movement For Organ Donation.
Colette joined Hello Cool World team back in 2003 and was a key organizer for The Corporation and The Take's grassroots outreach efforts across North America.
After being inspired by the organizing and awareness building potential of the internet and social issue films, she returned to school to study Communications and sharpen her skills.
Once graduating, Colette returned to Hello Cool World once again as a grassroots campaign consultant. She is now the Director of Distribution for Hello Cool World's new fair trade distribution arm.

This month's POV magazine features the man everyone is talking about... David Suzuki discusses the award-winning documentary which celebrates his life and career: Force of Nature. The film is elegantly reviewed by Adam Nayman and includes an interesting interview with director Sturla Gunnarsson about the creative process, his collaborative effort with David Suzuki on his Legacy lecture, and how directing the film has made him a less cynical person.
