I was interviewed by the
CBC radio show
The Current. The topic: should we have a permanent site for the Olympic
Games?
I and an Olympic Games historian,
Robert K Barney from Western University, debated the issue. Sometimes, in these
radio interviews your comments are edited down to a few phrases or sometime
left out all together, as happened to me when I was interviewed a month ago by
the BBC. I heard some of my arguments but not in my voice or even with a mention.
This CBC program is a rare case of allowing the interviewees enough space to
make their arguments. You can access the program
here.
