‘I always feel very much at home there': Julianne Moore gushes about Toronto
'Sirens' star gushes about her love for Toronto in an interview with CTV Your Morning's Anne-Marie Mediwake.
Julianne Moore joked this week that maybe 'someday' she'll end up in Toronto, after professing her love for the city where she started her illustrious career nearly 40 years ago.
'You know, I love Toronto,' Moore told CTV Your Morning's Anne-Marie Mediwake when asked what she considers to be 'uniquely Canadian.'
Moore has previously stated that she's 'practically Canadian,' and has the film and television credits to prove it.
'I've been working there for years. One of my very first jobs was in Toronto in the mid '80s,' pointing to the 1987 miniseries 'I'll Take Manhattan.'
The star of the new Netflix dark comedy series 'Sirens' said that since then, she's seen an 'incredible evolution' in the city 'where it's just become so incredibly diverse and multicultural.'
'There's so much to do there and the food is excellent, and it's just a lovely place to be,' Moore said.
The love affair between Canada's biggest city and the American actor has blossomed since the '80s. Moore returned to Toronto to star in Atom Egoyan's 'Chloe' in 2009 and David Cronenberg's 'Maps to the Stars' in 2014.
'Every time I've worked up there I've worked with so many talented actors and so many great crew members, and I always feel very much at home there,' she said.

Caribou in Coral Harbour, Nunavut, tests positive for rabies
Nunavut's health department says a caribou in Coral Harbour tested positive for rabies after it was seen attacking heavy equipment. In a public health advisory Tuesday, the department says harvesters who suspect an animal of having rabies should avoid handling the carcass. If they have already harvested the meat, they should dispose of it instead of eating it or feeding it to dogs. It says if you've been bitted or scratched by an infected animal, to go to your local health centre as soon as possible and report the incident. Dogs and other domestic animals that spend time tied up outdoors should be monitored for a change in behaviour. Signs of rabies include change of behaviour, aggression, staggering, frothing at the mouth, choking or making strange noises. Wild animals infected with rabies may also appear friendly and approach humans without fear. Nunavut's chief public health officer Dr. Ekua Agyemang said that this is the first confirmed case of rabies in caribou in Nunavut. She suspects another animal with rabies, possibly a fox or dog, bit the caribou to spread the disease. Agyemang said that she believes this to be an isolated event and that officials haven't heard any other reports of caribou suspected of having rabies. "People should be calm — it doesn't mean that going forward you can't eat caribou," she said, adding hunters should just observe an animal before killing it and report if they notice any strange behaviour.
