That`s really where I`ve always come from.<\/strong> My whole thing is to entertain, make people laugh and to forget about the real world for awhile. It`s not always easy doing that.<\/strong> I live in a high rise with my family part of the year in New York and I don’t know three quarters of the people in the building. We live in the same square-footage and I wouldn’t know who they were.<\/strong> We must come to the point where we realize the concept of race is a false one. There is only one race, the human race.<\/strong> The entertainment business is not the be-all and end-all for me.<\/strong> He is an Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning Canadian\/American comedian, actor, screenwriter, musician, and ufologist.
