            <text>0:00onto an incredible story about a city&#13;
0:02news reporter by the name of janella mad&#13;
0:04that she knows how to deliver news&#13;
0:05stories but she recently became the new&#13;
0:08story and internationally as canada's&#13;
0:10first anchor to wear a hijab and Janelle&#13;
0:13joins us this morning live from Toronto&#13;
0:15good morning to you&#13;
0:17hi Joe how are you I'm great great great&#13;
0:19to see you and this is really incredible&#13;
0:21how this is taking hold&#13;
0:23so let's find out your reaction to the&#13;
0:27response that you received following a&#13;
0:29anchoring the news and then you earned&#13;
0:32international attention it really took&#13;
0:34fire from there&#13;
0:35yeah my phone hasn't stopped buzzing for&#13;
0:37the last two week and a half I didn't&#13;
0:39expect it to&#13;
0:40I mean I kind of knew it was significant&#13;
0:42I tweeted about it right after but I&#13;
0:44didn't expect it to go everywhere to the&#13;
0:47way that it did i'm in the reaction has&#13;
0:49been overwhelmingly positive people who&#13;
0:51have said oh wow we haven't done this in&#13;
0:53Canada you know it's about time or&#13;
0:55people who have been watching my work&#13;
0:56it's a great for you you know it's a&#13;
0:57career milestone and from young people&#13;
1:00who are finally seeing people who look&#13;
1:03like them on TV I you know growing up I&#13;
1:05never saw anyone look like me on TV and&#13;
1:07that but you know it's really tough&#13;
1:09because it tells you where you do or you&#13;
1:10don't belong so I think it's about time&#13;
1:12that are our newscasts reflect our&#13;
1:15cities in china was one of the most&#13;
1:16diverse cities in the world so incensed&#13;
1:18of course and yes a little bit more&#13;
1:20about that in the opportunity that you&#13;
1:22have now to be a role model and so&#13;
1:24obviously you're comfortable in the role&#13;
1:26of being a journalist are you&#13;
1:27comfortable in the role of having you&#13;
1:30know at the opportunity to make a change&#13;
1:32for young girls who are watching you&#13;
1:34yeah absolutely and I think that my&#13;
1:36number one goal has always been to be a&#13;
1:38good journalist to be the best&#13;
1:40journalists that I can be that's the&#13;
1:41measuring stick that I want people to&#13;
1:43use when they look at my work I don't&#13;
1:46want anyone to ever say oh she doesn't&#13;
1:47belong there all was it you know it was&#13;
1:49a token higher and you know baby knows&#13;
1:51if if I ever was hired for that reason&#13;
1:53I'm i still want to earn my place I'm&#13;
1:56and yes I think that it is important to&#13;
1:58see I arm our communities reflected in&#13;
2:01the the stories that were telling i&#13;
2:04think that you know everything that we&#13;
2:06do you know if you're black you're white&#13;
2:08if your man&#13;
2:09a woman all those things color your&#13;
2:12experiences all those things color your&#13;
2:13opinions and you bring those experiences&#13;
2:15to the newsroom so it's important that&#13;
2:17we tap into all of those diverse&#13;
2:19communities&#13;
2:19absolutely and to that point i'm gonna&#13;
2:22read a tweet that you posted just five&#13;
2:24days ago and so much has happened since&#13;
2:26then but you posted after two crazy days&#13;
2:28off i'm back at work today hoping we can&#13;
2:30start to focus on the stories I tell&#13;
2:31instead of what I'm wearing&#13;
2:33how close do you think we are to uh you&#13;
2:36know not having those visual cues mean&#13;
2:39the things that they do today&#13;
2:42I mean you know even if I didn't wear&#13;
2:43hijab I think that as a woman often and&#13;
2:45i'm sure you know this is well working&#13;
2:47in use on people get caught up on&#13;
2:49talking about how her dress to our&#13;
2:51makeup how her hair is and sometimes I&#13;
2:53really wonder hey what about my story&#13;
2:55you know anything about that i'm sure&#13;
2:57you don't like areas as well i got tweet&#13;
3:00about my chipped nail polish want some i&#13;
3:02didn't know i mean i think that there we&#13;
3:04still a long way to go in terms of&#13;
3:05actually focusing on the stories that&#13;
3:07were telling how we're telling them and&#13;
3:09I'll happily take criticism for my work&#13;
3:11if I people think I i'm not being fair&#13;
3:13or I'm i know not asking the right&#13;
3:15questions i'll take that feedback i love&#13;
3:17that I second that motion I'm with you&#13;
3:19on that point that what has been the&#13;
3:21most outstanding moment the most&#13;
3:23heartwarming thing for you in the last&#13;
3:25handful of days you know young people&#13;
3:30coming up to me and saying it really&#13;
3:32means a lot to see you&#13;
3:34you know representing for us and showing&#13;
3:36you know what muscle women can do and be&#13;
3:39because there are a lot of&#13;
3:39misconceptions about it a lot of&#13;
3:41discussion about us and we're not often&#13;
3:43involved in those discussions so here I&#13;
3:45am just doing my job i'm not talking&#13;
3:47about my realtor or anything I'm just&#13;
3:49doing my job but I happen to be wearing&#13;
3:50a scarf while doing it and sometimes&#13;
3:52just being in the room does a lot&#13;
