A question from the floor
Updated at 16:00 the consensus so far:
What is Canada's oldest magic institution?
From Lee Asher's Twitter feed:
- The Browser's Den of Magic: oldest existing magic shop
- Perfect Magic: oldest existing magic shop under single owner (the people that opened it are still running it)
- IBM Ring 17 - since 1941
- IBM - co-founded by a Canadian in 1923
What is Canada's oldest magic institution?
From Lee Asher's Twitter feed:
@canadasmagic I think @theBrowsersDen is Canada's oldest magic institution. Maybe @jay_sankey @SorcerersSafari or someone else can confirm?!

@canadasmagic @theBrowsersDen I should preface by saying oldest Canadian magic institution "still open".

From Toronto is Awesome:
Too Much Information pits two panels of… well, panelists I guess… against each other. Riffing on the topic of the day – Politics. Sex. Religion. You know, the classic non-starters. Each team of panelists waxes on the subject at hand, vying to outwit, out-banter, out-shock and generally out-clever their foes across the isle. Moderated by the affable Norm Sousa (Discovery Channel’s Never Do This at Home) who at times looks like a mischievous kid who stole his Dad’s suit and set out to host a late show. His boyish face lights up when someone says something truly off-key and really lays into an opposing panelist. After all, that’s the beauty of a show that airs at night and the majority of your guests are comedians – there will be some sh*t said.
Sousa kicks things off with a monologue of sorts, testing the electricity in the water. He does a few setups on the theme of the show, to get the crowd warm & loose. It’s definitely not the daytime audience they’re looking to draw. The crowd in these seats comes ready for comedy. Familiar faces saying very naughty things, almost as if the camera isn’t even there
