Sally steps up

Sally Armstrong, the former editor of Homemaker's magazine, one of the founding editors of Canadian Living magazine had a new kind of challenge the other night, being brought in to pinch-hit for Vicki Gabereau in the Unique Lives speaking series, sponsored by the Toronto Star. True to form, she took the podium at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto and had lots to talk about, including the causes she championed at Homemaker's by going somewhat against the grain of what was typically expected of womens' magazines. A good deal of what Canadian families know about Afghanistan and women's issues there and elsewhere is the result of the reporting that Armstrong brought to them in her magazine's pages.
