Instagram: Howard Lapides. Love you sir. Rest in peace. This has been an incredibly tough week. Those of you who loved my TV show may have never seen it had it not been for this man. Howard Lapides understood comedy better than anyone. He saw my show in Canada when I was on public access TV and he sold it to MTV. Without Howard Lapides I would have never been on MTV. I just received this news tonight so I am flabbergasted and in shock. Howard and I both worked together with John Ferriter who also passed this week. Both of these men have been such supporters of me throughout my carreer. From the very start until now. Both of these men I count as two of my best friends in the world. So it is with great sadness that I report their passing. Howard I love you sir. John I love you. Please rest in peace.

I feel fortunate to have been performing @yukyuksottawa tonight when I recieved this news. It is a place that Howard loved. Rest in peace my friends. Thank you for changing my life and letting me live my dream. #Comedy #Love

Instagram: I have no words to properly express the sadness and shock that I am feeling today upon hearing my good friend John Ferriter has passed away unexpectedly. I have known John for 20 years. He was my first agent who helped me navigate through my initial years in the television business when I first moved to Los Angeles. But much more than just being a business associate he was also a very dear friend. All of us who knew John loved and adored him. He cared about his friends and his clients deeply. He also was funny. He could tell a story better than anyone. And believe me he had his share of incredible stories from his years as one of the most successful tv agents there ever was. He was just getting ready to embark on a European summer tour with his awesome band The Tearaways. John, I love you. I know you are making amazing music somewhere up there. Have a nice chilled martini for me buddy. Dirty with three olives. Like we like em. Rest in peace John Ferriter. Rest in peace.

Instagram: #savethechateaulaurier #ottawa Come say hello July 27th 6:30pm to sunset I will be having a pic nic in the park. Bring your own pic nic baskets and come enjoy sunset in our beautiful Major’s Hill Park. Bring your phones and lets post social media videos of The Chateau and tell our friends online how we don’t want it hidden from view. Lets send the message to our #citycouncil #Parliament #MP #NCC #Larco and more that we want a redesign that will be satisfying to all parties. We need to protect the iconic view of Canada’s Capital. #picnic #july27 #saturday #sunset

Instagram: #Ottawa Have a look at this beautiful view. This is taken from Nepean point looking over the Ottawa river. From this angle you will no longer be able to see The Chateau Laurier after they build the recently approved addition. Please contact your Member of Parliament and your City Councilor and protest. This is a decision that will affect all Canadians. It is also just completely absurd. If you live in Ottawa please go down to Major’s Hill Park at sunset and take a walk around. Enjoy the view and try to save it. If everybody speaks up now I believe that a more logical design can happen. Something that preserves the integrity of this Unesco heritage site that is part of our Canadian history. #Resist
