President of Bell Media, Phil King, delivered some hard facts to potential Media Buyers. Last season, CTV aired six of the Top Six new most-watched Series. Above this, 12 out of their 18 core Primetime Series are less than three years old, pointing-out their commitment to always deliver fresh, evolving programming options.
We’re sure excited to see some of these new Series this Fall/Midseason and thrilled to see the positively awesome Jaimie Alexander get her long overdue moment in the spotlight on new Series, Blindspot. And if there is any one new Program, destined to succeed, we’re certainly placing our bets on prophetically-named Legends of Tomorrow!

#PRODUCTWATCH: HUAWEI P30 PRO
Sometimes in life we are a bit quick to judge the unknown. If you asked me a year ago if I could see myself using a Huawei phone, I would’ve cried blasphemy, knowing well my brand loyalties. Flash-forward to now and I find myself back-peddling on my opinion.
The Huawei P30 Pro is unlike any phone I’ve used ever before. Being an avid Photographer whether it be on the Red Carpet, posing for Selfies with the stars, chronicling my food adventures or visits to my equine friends, my digital brand depends very much on a proper Smartphone. The device itself is almost as important as the content I deliver. We didn’t get voted Now Magazine Readers’ Choice Best Blogger wasting precious moments in our day. A ride on the subway is an opportunity to connect with my Readers. A lull in my day is a chance to tell you about something great I’ve discovered. I’ll admit most of the content I deliver on my Blog whether it be Reviews, First Looks or our famous Canada-wide Giveaways, more often than not is drafted on-the-go. While nothing can replace an SLR, my camera finally has met its match in the Huawei P30 Pro and its Leica Quad Camera System transfixing light and space. We love not having to upload photos from our SLR to our Smartphone via an upload utility when we can take actual SLR-quality pictures right on our phone itself.
Count ’em, the Huawei P30 Pro has FOUR Camera options:
•SuperZoom (50x) Lens
•40 MP Super Sensing Camera
•20 MP Ultra Wide Angle Lens
•HUAWEI TOF Camera
Also, don’t forget there’s a SpectacularMacro feature, letting you photograph with amazing clarity at 2.5 cm away from your subject. Detail you need to see to believe.
I confess, I am obsessed most with the Huawei P30 Pro‘s Portrait mode and continually find myself in awe at the breathtaking results the phone yields. Few can decipher the quality difference between a photo I’ve taken on the phone versus my SLR. If anything, the phone photos had more depth and richness in many instances.
The Huawei P30 Pro has an unparalleled 256GB storage for your photos, music, videos and files and operates with up to 8GB RAM on its 7 NM Processor. It literally could, if you dare, substitute a laptop with the array of apps you can access on Google Play Store, but know that its MateBook functionality too easily lets you transfer files to your laptop in seconds if you’re OCD about backing-up your files like me.
We can vouch that even after snapping content endlessly, plus loading the device with several high-power consuming apps for photo and video editing, we still couldn’t even put a dent in its memory capacity. This gives us sheer confidence that the phone is a keeper and something we can depend on.
Let’s talk aesthetics. The eye-pleasing phone comes in Breathing Crystal (I would have picked this!) and Black, with a 6.47″ OLED Dewdrop display and double 3D-curved glass body. We admit its sleekness makes it a bit slippery on the surface, so we wouldn’t use the phone without a proper case.
It synced beautifully via Bluetooth with the Honda Accord Hybrid we test-drove and our headset too. Note, there is no Audio jack and this is problematic if you need that for microphones or headphones. We will say though that the phone captures audio beautifully so you might be okay without a mic if you’re a Content Creator.
The Huawei P30 Pro has IP68 water and dust resistance for added peace of mind and protection. Best of all, its super-fast charge can arm you with up to 70% power in 30 minutes. This is just as good as several of its closest competitors in the market.
We won’t lie, the phone has a few quirks including making you set a PIN should you need to connect to VPN with the device for your job. We found it all too easily landed on Aperture, Pro and Video camera modes when trying to launch the camera, which is a bit of a nuisance when all you want to do is take a simple snap and do it on the fly. Another pain point is its Touch-Disable mode which triggers an error every time your fingers touch the top of the phone screen, not letting you proceed further in the name of preventing the trigger of accidental operations. We couldn’t take it no more and finally found a way to disable it in the phone’s settings. Honestly, we’re good Huawei – less is more, sometimes. These however are small issues if you look at the value and scope of what the phone can offer you. The phone excites us.
Learn more about the device here.
See some of our favourite moments with the Huawei P30 Pro!

#PRODUCTWATCH: 2019 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID TOURING
There isn’t much to say about the 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring that we haven’t already said in our previous peace. The beauty of a ride soars on all fronts and was just as superb as we recall in our Holiday adventures. More here.
The 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring powered by its 2.0-litre, 16-valve, Direct Injection, DOHC, i-VTEC® turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, offers outstanding fuel economy as our travels took us from the suburbs to the city, to the country! We had a busy, star-studded week at the 2019 Accord Hybrid took us there! With gas prices plummeting once again, we were able to make it through our five-day weekend on less than $40 and believe us, we saw a lot and had the AC on with the car’s highly-efficient Climate Control, as we finally saw some sun once again. Believe me, we put that moonroof to use as well, zipping through Burlington and working on our tan. We earned this amazing weather! We’ve seen this car now through sun, rain, snow, heat and cold and it prevails under all conditions.
One minor quirk we noticed after parking the park in the heat was that multiple alarming alerts with its Active Safety features among others, alerting us to bring the car to a dealer including:
- LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM
- ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM
- AUTO HIGH-BEAM HEADLIGHTS
While this took place we also noticed a bit of freezing navigating Display Audio System, which led us to do a Factory Default Reset. After parking the car overnight we noticed the alerts went away for good. If you recall over the winter, the car’s Tire Pressure Monitor System alert came on as well which caused a minor panic on Christmas Day for us, but alas was nothing to be concerned about after verifying tire pressure at the gas station.
We can’t resist the abundance of charging port options and neither could our friends who tagged along and the luxury of the leather-trimmed seats, the driver’s seat adjustable 12 ways , putting you in control of your drive like never before.
The Accord Hybrid synced beautifully with the Huawei P3o Pro we’re testing on its 452-watt AM/FM Premium audio system with MP3/Windows Media® Audio playback capability and 10 speakers including subwoofer, delivered audio magic and we can prove it! We’ve got Elton fever after witnessing the magic that is ROCKETMAN recently. You must see it!
