Annapolis Valley Register columnist Anne Crossman is a former journalist and media manager. She now does volunteer work in her community of Annapolis Royal, Annapolis County. - ContributedANNAPOLIS ROYAL, N.S. — Weather? Let me tell you about weather I have experienced.
Columnist Anne Crossman comes home for lunch from the CBC Kivalliq radio station in 1984. Crossman said she really liked the sealskin boots with duffle liners that were made by a mother of one of the CBC employees. - Contributed Then we started wondering why they had power, and we didn’t. You know those funny looking things on the power poles – they are called transformers – well, ours had gone berserk or something. They came with a long pole and spoke sharply to that transformer and presto chango, we had power.I have mentioned that I lived in Rankin Inlet on the western shore of Hudson Bay in the 1980s. It came time for me to leave and go to a new CBC job in Inuvik.
So, there we were – three Qallunaat – hanging on to each other, head down for as long as we could, and then turning around backing into the wind until the wind seemed to suck the breath from us. We had to hold on tight! We got to my place, and they weren’t going any further that night. So, Elaine Sykes, the human resources manager, borrowed something from me to wear and assistant regional director for CBC Northern Service Austin Curley got out the vodka. I checked the fridge.
