Excuse me, dahrlings, but...

I'm Seeing Chinese Red

Calin, Harper and Obama are all over China like a belly on a Buddha.

Whether it's Quantum de-porting itself to Shanghai or AC tying its silk sky hopes on Air China, Asia Pacific is the hemisphere du jour. And I'm always one to ride a friend, er ... I mean a trend, dahrlings.

So how do I focus my business towards the rising sun? I've tended to hone my skills towards the southern triangulation, so to speak.

Thankfully, my Austro-Hungarian-Russian skin tone does red quite nicely. And I just love all that cinnabar lacquer. But I'm unclear on how the easternization of Canadian travel will show me some money. Are we forecasting a surge of Guangzhou getaways? Peking packages? Hong Kong ITC holidays? Lhasa leisure adventures? You see my point.

No doubt it will all become clear once I learn to snatch the pebble from Calin's palm. If nothing else, it opens the opportunity for international date line crossings. And I do love international dates. Especially when they cross the line.

Ivanna Gabbalot

Columnist

Part legend, part myth, all woman: Ivanna Gabbalot is OJ’s gossip columnist and considers herself the industry’s conscience. Equally annoying to Open Jaw management and inflated egos in C-suites everywhere, Ivanna works infrequently, preferring to snipe from the sidelines.
