Description
Jon Dore is a national treasure, or will be when he returns to Canada from Alaska, where he’s been living these past few years. He’s not everyone’s cup of maple syrup, however. His humour lurks on the dark side: domestic arguments, pregnancy, cancer, his own surprise diagnosis of epilepsy. There are few borders Jon won’t cross, literally and figuratively. We talk about lifestyle changes, free speech, love of family and country, and being best friends with an 8 year old.Jon Dore was named Best Newcomer by the Canadian Comedy Awards back in 2013. Ten years later, he won the Juno for his album A Person who is Gingerbread. In between, Jon has created, hosted and appeared in lots of big shows, like Canadian Idol, How I Met Your Mother, Inside Amy Schumer, Humour Resources and The Lake. He currently lives in Juneau, Alaska with his partner Christina and their two children, but hopes to move back to his native Ottawa.
