I decided the best way to honour June Callwood was to read one of her books. In National Treasures she interviews Margaret Atwood, Phil Fontaine, Rosemary Brown, Charles Pachter, Buffy Sainte-Marie, William Hutt, Maureen Forrester, Falrey Mowat, and Karen Kain. She says, "Every Canadian can make a list of people we consider national treasures. What I think most lists have in common is that people we admire are those whose lives reflect a sense of responsibility towards others...(people who) exemplify a good life, a useful life. The givers. The treasures."
So who are your National Treasures?
