MC
Steve Patterson  

 

Steve Patterson has been a professional headliner since 1997 and has taped numerous national television specials in the past decade including four Just For Laughs galas.  His performance in 2010 earned him a Gemini nomination and caused host Steve Martin afterwards to exclaim "If I'd have known he was going to be THAT good, I would have cancelled him."  The list of his accomplishments are very extensive and we are very proud to have him as our 2015 MC.

RING ANNOUNCER
Barry Pletch

Welcoming Barry back for his second year with FTEC - Barry has acted in theatre across the city and previously hosted a different sort of battle that was filled with rage, aggression, split-second strategy and spray tan -- that being, Miss Canada International.   He is deeply honoured to be a part of this fantastic extravaganza and meaningful event.  He believes together we can knockout cancer!
