I can't say that I am a huge fan, but I do appreciate his work. He was a big supporter of the CFL, and really helped it's reconnaissance for a while. He was certainly a huge football fan, and always had the best interest of the sport in mind.

There was a great documentary about his involvement in the CFL that I would certainly recommend. It is called John Candy: True Double Blue. Double Blue referring to the signature colours of the Toronto Argonauts football team.

I remember back in the day. I had just arrived home from high school, and heard on the tv that he had passed. I never really cared for his work, but I think that it was his commitment to the community that made me realized that we had lost a good one.

Here is a bit of his stuff:
