This week's subject probably lands in the, “did you know” category.
AND, not only is the person I'm speaking about this week Canadian, he quite literally bled red and white. He wasn't just an actor, he gave his all, ALL of the time.
James Doohan. Lieutenant Commander Montgomery Scott.
A Canadian, through-and-through.
