	Lyse Doucet

	Acadian, so the Grand Fete de l'Acadie may be
	another reason she was back.

  Good on the CBC to bring her back for a short while.  I see that
she is still doing the BBC World Service apposition style to
inform the listeners who the characters are.

  In England, she does the BBC Newshour and has been on 'local'
Radio 2 (?) this year

   Lyse Doucet has been a foreign correspondent for the BBC for
the past 20 years. Most recently she reported from Amman, Jordan
and Iraq during the war of 2003.

Degree in International Relations from the University of Toronto
