Matt DiSero entertains Canadian Armed Forces
Matt DiSero's website says that:
Rumour has it that Matt's recently / is / is going to entertain the troops again! The tour involves performances on a battleship in Italy as well as for land troops in Kuwait. Matt joins hockey players from Team Canada, CFL players and Arlene Dickinson (an honorary Captain in the Navy!).
When you're able to Matt, we'd love to hear if you got to ride on an Airbus, and if a hockey game broke out (though hopefully not on the Airbus)!
"He has performed for the Canadian Armed Forces to boost morale in such countries as Cypress, Bosnia, the United Arab Emirates, Greenland and even WAY up at the North Pole."

So how do you know what's good?
From Perfect Magic:
When we opened Perfect Magic, before the internet, we bought what we thought was good from suppliers we trusted. There was not this smorgasbord of magic that there is today. Every single day we receive new items to consider. At one time there was Mak Magic, Morrissey Magic, Abbott’s, Fun and a few others that manufactured products here in Canada or the U.S.A and Supreme in England. Now very little is made here. It’s hard to compete with China or India. Some of the stuff is good, some is not. But when you read the write-ups, everything is the greatest ever. So how do you know what is good.
