Fun fact

The Tom Green Show started as public-access television in Ottawa before MTV picked it up — his real parents appeared on it the entire run.

The verdict

Born in Pembroke, Ontario but raised mainly in Petawawa and later Gloucester (now part of Ottawa), and the guy who took a cable-access prank show out of his parents' driveway and turned it into an MTV phenomenon. Born here, raised here, five points, and yes, that's really his dad's car.
