lonetree Posted June 5, 2020 Report Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) 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. https://www.broadcasting-history.ca/personalities/coombs-ernie-mr-dressup https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/robert-homme-the-friendly-giant-obituary Of course those days are a long way away from the present CBC which glorifies "Drag Kids"🙄.
