Canadian comedian Ben Bankas has had his appearance cancelled at the Grey Eagle Casino in Calgary.
The Toronto-born comic’s original Oct. 24 show was canceled after the venue — located on the Tsuut’ina Nation — received complaints about a social media video Bankas posted that made a joke about residential schools.
I hear they want to make jokes illegal in Canada. pic.twitter.com/MN4GoYddy5
