Bryan. Which character was NOT voiced by Blanc, until after Bryan's death?
Foghorn Leghorn?

What Canadian magician had 7 specials airing on NBC?
Was it Doug Henning, the politician from the Natural Law Party in a 1990's Canadian Federal Election? They were going to will the government debt to disappear, using 'yogic flyers' and transcendental meditation. CBC TV and radio had to give every registered party a free time political announcement spot before each election.. The one for the Rhinoceros Party was really funny, "Un toaster dans chaque maison". The Rhinos actually finished second in a couple of Quebec Federal ridings in one election, possibly in the 80's. Added: Probably the February, 1980 election, when only two Progressive Conservative MPs won, after having had a plurality of seats in The House before the election.

Foghorn Leghorn?
Nope. Foghorn Leghorn wasn't in nearly that many cartoons, (only 22 before 1960).
