- -"Soirée canadienne" was a weekly Quebec television (in Canada) show broadcast every Saturday night, from 1960 to 1983, for 23 years, on Télé-7 (CHLT - Sherbrooke) and the Télé-Métropole network. The show was hosted by Louis Bilodeau. The one-hour program, with the theme of Quebecois (French-Canadian) folklore, was set against the backdrop of a typical Canadian house and recreated the universe of a vigil of yesteryear, articulated around performances of various orders (songs, gigues, dances, etc.) of its protagonists: the inhabitants of a given Quebec locality. The genius of Louis Bilodeau resided in this incredible capacity to relax the atmosphere and to let the forefront of common mortals, to replace the people as the engine of his own culture, playing a role both erased and acting of master of ceremonies.

- Every summer, Camp Weredale, located in the Laurentian mountains north of Montreal, is home to "system kids," offering them a safe haven and a chance to heal lives scarred by abuse and neglect. Silence and Storm documents two months in the lives of ten kids at this unique summer camp. For some, it was an opportunity to re-learn their capacity to be kids and just play; for others, it was a chance to come to grips with the painful memories that haunt them. Despite backgrounds steeped in pain and disappointment, these young people were able to reveal themselves and express their hopes, fears, anger and loneliness. The result is a sensitive, revealing portrait of an unusual program for youth in care.
