"We are also pleased that CBS' new management team, led by Entertainment President, Les Moonves, shares our confidence in the show," he added.

Due South follows the exploits of Constable Benton Fraser (Paul Gross) an exemplary Canadian Mountie and his seen-it-all partner Police Detective Ray Vecchio (David Marciano). Transplanted from the far north, Fraser patrols the mean streets of Chicago armed only with a rigid moral code and his deaf wolf Diefenbaker. Ladling out the humour in healthy doses, Fraser and Ray team up for a second season of crime-fighting action, infused with the constant interplay between Canadian and American cultures.

Due South is an Alliance Communications Corporation production with the financial participation of Telefilm Canada and the Cable Production Fund. Executive Producers are Jeff King and Kathy Slevin. The series' creator, Paul Haggis, is Executive Consultant; Bob Wertheimer is Producer. Alliance distributes worldwide.

The second season of Due South premiers tomorrow on CTV.
