I am a Montreal native humourist, formerly an Ontario litigation lawyer (not necessarily an oxymoron). I am the author of two books, namely "Birth, Death and Other Trivialities (A Humorous Philosophical Look at the Human Condition)" and my latest opus, "Poutine on the Orient Express: An Irreverent Look at Travel". My written work has also been published in legal and non legal publications including the Toronto Star and Globe and Mail. As well I am a speaker exciting, informing and amusing audiences on topics such as how to use humour safely and effectively and how to diffuse problems and avoid trouble. I am definitely more fun to read and listen to than Jean Paul Sartre,Tolstoy and Aristotle. (Maybe not Aristotle).
