Warren Persowich

Warren was feature in The CBC Winnipeg Comedy Festival’s “Life’s Hurtles” Gala in 2006 where - as a cancer survivor - Warren Persowich recounted the zaniness of his story of survival, a journey which amongst other things found him crossing international borders with his ex-wife while holding contraband medical records (albeit, his own) in an unimaginable yet real effort to keep himself alive long enough for Canada’s "free" medical system to ultimately kick in and save his life.
