His punchlines were unpredictable and you never knew what story he was going to tell. But whenever Norm MacDonald stopped by the local comedy club, or made an appearance on late-night television, most Canadians couldn’t help but watch. Sadly, the 61-year-old comedian passed away on Tuesday after a private battle with cancer, a gut-punching headline that left the world of comedy in a state of shock. One comedian who spent a lot of time with Norm over the years is Mark McKinney. Born in Ottawa, he previously starred on Saturday Night Live and recently starred in NBC’s ‘Superstore’. McKinney joins Andrew Pinsent to remember his longtime friend on CFRA Live.
