Just a couple more fun facts from my own childhood-and the recent Canadian past. The two icons of morning CBC children's tv -Mr Dressup, and The Friendly Giant, both came from the USA.  Both, but especially Ernie Coombs are still revered today-at least by some.

Of course those days are a long way away from the present CBC which glorifies "Drag Kids"🙄.
