Default I saw Gord Gillies at the zoo the other day.

Holy crap he is short! I would say like 5'4" or so.

I see him at the MRU gym everyone other saturday morning or so.

He's a tiny little newscaster, I can confirm this for those who think the thread starter is a dirty slanderer.

Saw him at Mount Royal a few years back giving a speech and he is probably closer to 5'2" but man is he ever a good speaker and a great person.

He was one of my hockey coaches about 6 years back, really nice and funny guy but really short too.

I actually think it's inhumane to keep Gord Gillies at the zoo.

He should be out in the wild with the other humans.

Shut it hippy.

You do realize that the Gord Gillies at the zoo gets treated much better than specimens in the wild right? Gordgilliesologists also do important research on the Gord Gillies at the zoo which is then applied to help understand and protect the species in the wild.

I saw Paul Dunhpy shaking hands and kissing babies at Market Mall this weekend.

I thought he may of entered the Mayoral race too.
