To position New York Fries as a purveyor of the ultimate Canadian delicacy – poutine – it was only natural for Juniper Park to enlist a Canadian living legend. Enter Gordon Pinsent, narrating a set of radio spots for the restaurant, airing across the country. As we already know from Pinsent reading Justin Bieber’s autobiography, the man has comedic timing, and hearing a serious actor talk about jeans for a kitty is always amusing.
