"Red Sky at Night: Superstition and Wives' Tales Compiled by Atlantic Canada's Most Eclectic Collector" is a collection of many of those age-old beliefs from the region's best and most eclectic compiler of folklore. We also get well-known Atlantic Canadians to weigh in with some of their superstitions. Gemini award winning actor and writer and star of the hit comedy "This Hour Has 22 Minutes," Cathy Jones recalls many of the "old sayings" from her childhood. Author Allan Lynch remembers home remedies administered by his parents, aunts, and grandparents. Former NHLer Glen Murray talks about the superstitions of the game. And singer/songwriters Dave Gunning, Joel Plaskett, Terry Kelly, and Rita MacNeil all admit to being just a little bit superstitious. |
