Serge Giguere: Winner of Governor General’s Award

Once in a while I make a post that has absolutely nothing to do with AdSense or Internet marketing. Today I’m happy to announce that one of my (many) uncles, Serge Giguere, is a recipient of the Governor General’s Awards in Visual and Media Arts for 2008. This is a big deal — in Canada, the Governor General’s Awards are akin to the Pulitzer Prizes in the United States. Serge is a documentarist and cinematographer and he does all his work in French, of course, so it’s unlikely anyone here would have seen or heard of any of his films, but I thought it deserved a mention. The nomination for the award by a film critic is particularly interesting reading if you’re not familiar with Serge’s work. Congratulations to Serge!
