More Than Just Friends: Alex and Corina

11/23/23 • 44 min

This love story belongs to Alex and Corina, a couple who met while working at a movie theatre. Their modern love story started with friendship, and soon grew into a sitcom-worthy romance.

Both movie buffs, Alex and Corina share a love for the cinema, and specifically the show Friends has played a starring role in their lives. They are a real-life Chandler and Monica as their relationship took a while to get off the ground, but is now full of entertaining and sweet memories, including a Friends-inspired candlelit proposal.

For Alex and Corina, shared passions, humour, and appreciation of the simple everyday moments are at the core of this special connection. And they happen to be tying the knot next year, at the very theatre where it all began.

To The Moon and Back: Lars Callieou

Today's love story belongs to Lars Callieou, a Canadian comedian who has given the gift of laughter to audiences all over the world, including six military tours. For Lars, feeling at home on the road was very normal, as his parents were travelling musicians. When following in their footsteps didn't quite pan out, he found solace and purpose in standup comedy.

His love of comedy has taken him across Canada and the US in his beloved 2009 Volkswagen Jetta, which he calls Silver. Lars has travelled so much that he's travelled the exact distance to the moon and back (768,00km)...and then some. Currently, he has logged 818,000km.

Lars has an impressive comedy career that spans 20 years, and he's worked with such luminaries as Joan Rivers, Jeff Foxworthy, and Bob Saget. His fuel is passion, generosity, and the pure love of performance.

Lars Callieou has appeared at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montréal and has a 1-Hour Comedy Special currently airing on The Comedy Network. He's been overseas to entertain the troops 5 times and is a 2-Time Canadian Comedy Award Nominee. He can be heard on CBC's Laugh Out Loud, CBC's The Debaters and on Sirius/XM. He's performed at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival for the last 8 years and has also appeared at the Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland, the Boston Comedy Festival, the World Series of Comedy in Las Vegas and the Halifax Comedy Festival.

Beauty From Trauma: Jasyn Lucas

This love story belongs to Jasyn Lucas, an Indigenous Canadian painter from the Mathias Colomb Cree Nation in northern Manitoba. Jasyn is a survivor of the “Sixties Scoop”, which refers to the large-scale removal of Indigenous children from their homes, communities, and birth families through the 1960s. Subsequently, these children were adopted into predominantly non-Indigenous, middle-class families across the United States and Canada.

Jasyn graduated from the Studio Art Diploma Program from Capilano University where he studied Printmaking, Sculpture, Drawing, Painting, and Art History. His extraordinary paintings are done with a combination of both airbrush and hand-painted applications, using both traditional and contemporary practices. He also applies this to everyday living as well, preserving tradition while exploring technologies and new ideas.

Jasyn finds inspiration for his art everywhere and he has been devoted to creating for over 20 years. His art not only shares extraordinary beauty with others but has provided him with profound healing from his traumatic past.
