Fun fact

He is the only person to appear on this list three times over — he co-created Letterkenny, directed Shoresy, and created, wrote and directed Heated Rivalry, while also playing Glen in the first.

The verdict

The man behind the curtain on all three: co-creator of Letterkenny, director of Shoresy, and the writer-director of Heated Rivalry — plus Glen, the world's most enthusiastic degenerate pastor. A Montreal kid who started as a child actor and grew into the most quietly prolific comedy voice in the country. Born, raised, and responsible. Five points.
