Pamela Wallin Live
''Pamela Wallin Live'' was a Canadian interview series which aired on CBC Newsworld from 1995 to 1999. It was hosted by Pamela Wallin. Following her highly publicized firing from the CBC's ''Prime Time News'' in 1995, Wallin formed her own production company and launched the series. Instead of reporting or anchoring the news, ''Pamela Wallin Live'' featured Wallin interviewing newsmakers, celebrities and other figures in a format similar to CNN's ''Larry King Live''. The show quickly proved to be one of Newsworld's most popular offerings, and in some seasons was repeated the following afternoon on the CBC's main network as well. In 1998, Newsworld moved the series to a different time slot, and the show no longer aired live. Its title was changed at that time to simply ''Pamela Wallin''. In 1999, Wallin moved the series to CTV's new specialty channel TalkTV, where it became ''Pamela Wallin's TalkTV''. It aired there until 2002, when Wallin accepted a diplomatic posting as Can ...

MTV (Canadian TV Channel)
MTV is a Canadian English-language specialty channel owned by Bell Media with the name and branding used under a licensing agreement with Paramount Global. The channel is devoted to talk, lifestyle and documentary programming, and also airs some scripted programming. The channel launched as Talktv in 2000, but was not as widely available prior to its relaunch in March 2006.

Consul General
A consul is an official representative of the government of one state in the territory of another, normally acting to assist and protect the citizens of the consul's own country, as well as to facilitate trade and friendship between the people of the two countries. A consul is distinguished from an ambassador, the latter being a representative from one head of state to another, but both have a form of immunity. There can be only one ambassador from one country to another, representing the first country's head of state to that of the second, and their duties revolve around diplomatic relations between the two countries; however, there may be several consuls, one in each of several major cities, providing assistance with bureaucratic issues to both the citizens of the consul's own country traveling or living abroad and to the citizens of the country in which the consul resides who wish to travel to or trade with the consul's country. A less common usage is an administrative consu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
