Gilda’s Club Greater Toronto’s 10th annual “It’s Always Something!” variety show raised $500,000 and dazzled guests with entertaining performances by top Canadian comics Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Andrea Martin and Martin Short. The night was anything but the latter star’s last name, with Russell Peters playing host and people such as Randy Bachman, Paul Shaffer and Jackie Richardson around to mingle with.

Since its inception, the annual show has raised more than $3 million for Gilda’s Club, a cancer care centre that offers free social and emotional support programs for children, teens and adults living with cancer. The club is named after late Saturday Night Live comedian, Gilda Radner who died of Ovarian cancer in 1982.
