I was dirt-poor. I could barely hold down a job. Eventually, though, I started getting small parts on shows like 'Smallville,' 'Supernatural'... and lots of really bad sci-fi movies. I was running around the woods in wolf contacts, covered in fake blood made out of pancake syrup, roaring.

My past made me who I am today. I can’t just pretend it never happened. But the biggest lesson I learnt from that, is that I can be an example for others who are still struggling! There’s always hope and help for everyone. I think it’s my responsibility to do that, to help. I always refer to this as the “moment of clarity”. It’s hard to explain what really happened, but it was a once in a lifetime kind of moment. I had reached my lowest point and I just knew things had to change quickly because there was just no other way, you know.

Be nice to everyone, always smile & appreciate things because it could all be gone tomorrow.

I'm Joe Canada, who never went to high school. I've never even been to a football game.

I want to get married and have children and live happily ever after. That's important to me.

I'm lucky on so many counts - I'm lucky to be alive.

Fox taught me how to sing and dance
