Suhana’s Family Favourite
Suhana Meharchand remembers her early childhood years living with her family in Durban, South Africa. They arrived in Canada when she was six years old. As a journalist and prime time anchor with CBC Newsworld, Suhana knows personally of the global strife she often reports on. She, her husband and children love all kinds of food. Suhana explains it this way; “We live in a country with such diversity that it’s natural to celebrate it through food. It’s a tasty way to learn about other cultures.”
