One of Canada's most popular comedians, Dave Broadfoot has been a long-running star with Toronto's "Spring Thaw" and, for more than a decade, a leading actor and writer in CBC's "Royal Canadian Air Farce". His caricatures are such fixtures that he is reputed to rate with Niagara Falls as a Canadian tourist attraction.
