Part of it is simply that if you are going to create funny characters, some will be French, others English. For the Montreal-born Clune, whose work before Snow Job focused mainly on commercials and small parts for American and Canadian films, Snow Job is "only the beginning. The show is wonderful because it allows you to learn so much while youre working. Kilbertus, whose acting career has included guest appearances on numerous CBC series, including King of Kensington, is more profound about his future with the program.

I just hope the show is something viable for the Canadian (television) industry. We need more Snow Jobs. With winter about to invade this country, it is hard to believe anybody, Canadian or otherwise, can make snow a laughing matter. Snow Job is shown on the CTV network Monday nights at 8 p.m. were all amputees hnd it was 32 degrees below freezing when it was filmed.

Wild Goose Jack, produced and directed by Michael Dana Murphy of Clear Horizons Films, in Windsor, won the Nettie Kryski Canadian Heritage Award for an outstanding production exemplifying outstanding Canadian people and events. Its the story of famed Canadian naturalist Jack Miner, known as the father of conservation in Canada. Best performance in film was won by Cedric Smith, for his part in The Fall. Adam Brooker won best performance in video for his part in Reunion.

It is narrated by Cedric Smith, who starred in Billy Bishop Goes to War. Ted Johns did Chambers voice. Sandra and Her Kids was produced and directed by Tom Kelly of CBC Toronto. The video, aired on CBC-TVs Man Alive last year, delves into the lives of Sandra and Lloyd Simpson, who have 24 children, 20 of them adopted refugees. It also won the best human condition category for video.

Quest-ce qui a video directed by Jacques Viau, won the best childrens production, best script, best sound editing and the Yorkton Television award for the outstanding use of video to portray significant aspects of contemporary Canadians contribution to social, political or cultural development. Filmed for $12,000 at Montreal's Hospital-Sainte Justine, it tells children afflicted with leukemia and their parents about the disease, its treatment and its secondary effects. I pray my film will help people who suffer from leukemia, Viau said. The Peoples Choice award, selected by Yorkton and area cable TV subscribers, was Downhill Any Way You Can, a video that shows the hardships, achievements and cam-eraderie among child ampu-' tees involved in skiing. Shot in Quebec, this video was produced by Brian Chadderton and directed by Peter Svatek, who are with the War Amputees of Canada in Toronto.

Karl Hilzinger, their instructor noted the children YORKTON (Special) -Chambers: Tracks and Gestures, a portrayal of one of Canada's finest painters was named the best film of the Yorkton Short Film and Video Festival on the weekend. Sandra and her. Kids, a touching story of a family that opened its home to refugee children, was the best video of the festival. The two top winners, among 117 entries in the five-day festival, were presented with Golden Sheaf Awards. All productions from the past 30 years will now be preserved in the Public Archives of Canada in Ottawa.

The 50-minute film on Jack Chambers also won a replica of the Golden Sheaf in the best human condition category for showing a man investigating, interpreting and reflecting on his own existence. I feel a great sense of pride for all of us. Chambers was a very gifted artist who had a real vision and who shared it with us through his landscape paintings, said Janice Platt, who, along with Michael MacMillan and Seaton McLean were the Atlantis Film Ltd. executive producers. The documentary, produced Christopher Lowry and directed by John Walker, follows Chambers life from 13 to his death from leukemia in 1978.

Filmed in Spain, London, and Toronto art galleries and homes, the film cost $150,000 to produce. It appeared on CBC last winter and has been distributed to foreign broadcasters and is available to schools and li By Ron Piche of The Leader-Post You're setting out to develop a Canadian situation comedy. You want the show to have something all Canadians can identify with. The obvious solution: Make sure the show has a lot of snow in it. As strange as it may sound, that was exactly the idea behind Snow Job, a CTV sitcom set in a ski resort in the Quebec Laurentians.

A major characteristic of Canada is snow and this was a starting point for our producers, explains Nicholas Kil-bertus, who plays Bobby, the dashing ski instructor. i All across the country, you really have the basis for people accepting the fact there are sitcom characters in a ski resort area its part of Canadian life. Snow Job is in its second year and, according to Kilbertus, it has had ratings of between 1 and 1.2 million viewers. We've placed as high as 23rd in the top 25 and for a Canadian show that is very high. Kilbertus, along with co-actor Liliane Clune, were in Regina this week on a cross-country tour to promote the show.

Both acknowledge the difficulty of trying to penetrate the Canadian market with a Canadian sitcom. We hadn't even done our first show and everyone was saying all the odds were against us, says Clune, who plays the part of Gigi, the ski lodges sexy chambermaid. Kilbertus says part of the problem is that Canada doesnt have what he calls a star system. If it's American, it automatically passes. But because we dont have a star system, people who tune into a Canadian show simply dont recognize anybody.

But Snow Job is comparable to a lot of American sitcoms. I think there are American sitcoms, like Laverne and Shirley, that we beat in terms of CNRA HALL BINGO EVERY MONDAY 7:30 p.m. 1st Ave. N. Royal St.

Early Bird Bonanza 7:15 Cards 5 for $1 Chuck Berry hits cameraman Liliane Clune According to Clune, shows like Snow Job keep Canadian talent in Canada, which will partly help in trying to change the Canadian preference for American sitcoms. If you want to work (as an actor) in Canada, it really helps to do some work in the United States. Thats why we cant build a great pool of talent here. But Snow Job is changing that by giving work to technical people, writers, directors and actors. An obvious feature of the program is the mix between French- and English-Canadian characters.

However, both deny this, was preconceived by the shows producers. Its just the way the characters have evolved. We started out with a main cast of eight, but the producers wanted to go with the six characters they felt had the most promise. Three happen to be French-Canadian and three are Eng-lish-Canadians, Kilbertus adds.

Berry told KTUU cameraman Kim Daehnke not to take pictures when the entertainer arrived Friday afternoon' for a concert that night. I went ahead and raised my camera and started shooting, said Daehnke. Then he just swung this briefcase at the camera. I almost dropped it. I guess he was really serious about no pictures.

Daehnke was not injured. KTUU reporter Todd Hardesty said the concert promoter had called the station earlier in the day to invite filming of Berrys arrival. LEGION 53 St. Athanasius Parish Centre 55 McMurchy Ave. EVERY MONDAY Bonanza 7:20 p.m.
