From the Canadian Association of Magicians:
The Canadian Association of Magicians is pleased to announce a special virtual CAM JAM event on Wednesday, October 12, at 8 pm EST! It's an exclusive look at the historic FISM World Championship of Magic in Quebec City!
TLDR:
MIND BLOWN!
Hope to see again!
Regular readers will recall that this summer Dave Curran and Steve Esfandiar Kalantar opened Jokers, a comedy club in Richmond Hill. We attended the soft launch in June (see our post "Jokers is serious about comedy") with plans to visit again after a few months.
Steve Valentine's brand new one-man show "Mr. Valentine Blows Your Mind!" was the perfect reason to return.
Here are some random thoughts about the show:
Your next chance to see this show is October 21st at Jokers Comedy Club in Richmond Hill. Tell them Canada's Magic sent you!
Here's what Matt DiSero had to say:

From the October 3rd Facebook post by Ring 17:
No, that wasn't a practical joke when we suddenly switched the lecture speaker last week! Sadly just two days before our lecture, our scheduled speaker and past president James Alan tested positive for that trendy virus that just won't go away (and we thought the Macarena stuck around a long time!), so we had to scramble. We are truly grateful that Sir Jeff Hinchliffe stepped up to help us out. Our heads are still reeling from the routines and knowledge he dropped on us including a some history of magic colouring books and his new rising card effect! And it was member Rob Fishbaum's birthday! His family must really love him if they let him spend his special day with us! Afterwards folks went down to the Uptown Pub for drinks, food and of course, MAGIC!
NOTE: We did videotape the lecture (thanks to member Chris Mayhew) and are currently editing it. As soon as that is done, a screening link will be made available to members to view – just one of the new perks of being a member of the 2022-2023 season!
Reviews are thumbs up on the venue we were used for Jeff's lecture, the Agricola Finnish Lutheran Church located by York Mills Station, which has a big open hall and a parking lot to match. We have been having difficulty finding venues that are central and within the club's budget, but hope to return here. We will be exploring other spaces over the season as we are not always able to get the dates that we want for certain places.
Thanks to everyone who came out! It was great seeing you all in person and we look forward to more Meet-Ups and Events to come
