“If you caught Julia's recent interview on the CBC, you will know that she has things well in hand. Despite the interviewer's attempt to impose a particular interpretation on Julia's work, she didn't evade questions, addressed the issues and basically put the interviewer in her place. Bravo! (I very much enjoyed her professional way in which she dealt with the questions.)”
