- British Columbia is one of North America's most exciting, dynamic and cosmopolitan areas. It is alive with new artists, new sounds, new voices. Its cuisine and lifestyle are like no other. And now it has a radio program like no other. North by Northwest is the show that examines and celebrates life in British Columbia today. Located north by northwest on the continent, BC is the meeting place of Canada, America and the Pacific Rim--and North by Northwest is our meeting place. Each Saturday and Sunday morning, host Sheryl MacKay introduces you to places you've never been, people you've never met, and ideas you've never considered. North by Northwest presents artists, writers, performers, and "just plain folks" talking about what they do and what others do. It's musical, theatrical, literary, artistic and delicious. Join Sheryl and her friends for a taste of what British Columbians are thinking and doing. There's good company, good music and great conversation, all served up with a healthy sense of humour. Just add coffee and you've got a great start to your day.
