What's it take to land on a top TV sitcom or drama? Here's the guy who knows: Jon Comerford. He's cast many of today's biggest hits, including Schitt's Creek, Cardinal, Star Trek: Discovery, Coroner and, further back, Due South. A fella by the name of Ryan Reynolds got his big break thanks to Jon, who I've known since we were both cub scouts in Etobicoke.
