Funnyman Russell Peters finally gets the respect he deserves, with an induction at the 2011 Canada's Walk of Fame Awards at Elgin Theatre this evening.  Arriving on the Red Carpet with his Wife Monica and baby Daughter, Crystianna in-tow, Peters had everyone in "aww".

The Brampton native who has appeared on Forbes' list of top-earning Comedians, can currently be seen in Indo-Canadian Comedy, Breakaway which was filmed last year in-and-around the City.  He also has a part in Warner Bros.' star-studded New Year's Eve out on December 9, 2011 along with Ashton Kutcher, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lea Michele, Hilary Swank and more.

Peters joked, "Somebody needs to Twitpic me as soon as someone pukes allover my Star.  That's when I know I've made it!".

We couldn't be any more proud of Golden Globe and SAG Award-winning Actress Sandra Oh, as the Actress continues to pour out her best work still as a Veteran who has exceeded all our expectations since her humble Theatre beginnings in Ottawa.  The Actress stole the show at the Red Carpet for Canada's Walk of Fame this evening looking both edgy and elegant, at one point posing for Photos alongside her Mother Young-Nam, for Photographers.

On being inducted into the Walk of Fame this year, the Grey's Anatomy star said, "I hope people will along walk on the street, see my nam.e.. and smile".

They loved him so much, they asked for more!  Funnyman Howie Mandel after playing Host to Canada's Walk of Fame Awards last year, returns again this year again. Although he didn't really stop for the Fans at the Red Carpet, telling them "I can't!", he did reassure Torontonians, on-stage, "I never left!" after being questioned on how it felt to be back.  

Good, Howie!  Now sign some Autographs for your Fans!

RYAN REYNOLDS MISSING FROM LIST OF 2011 CANADA'S WALK OF FAME INDUCTEES

Ryan Reynolds at TIFF 2010

To be held on October 1, 2011 at Elgin Theatre, Canada’s Walk of Fame will be honouring some of the greatest in Canadian talent by adding some new members to its exclusive list of 131 Inductees.

Honourees this year include: Dr. Roberta Bondar, Burton Cummings, Daniel Nestor, Sandra Oh, Russell Peters and Mordecai Richler.  The Ceremony will be televised on both Slice and Global Television although there is no confirmation which stars will actually be in attendance.

Ryan Reynolds, despite originally being on the list of Inductees in June, is missing now from the list seen on the Canada's Walk of Fame website.  The Vancouver-born Actor currently is busy filming R.I.P.D. and that likely has played a part in this unfortunate bit of news.  Canada's Walk of Fame CEO and Founding Director Peter Soumalias confirms with me below that they "look forward to inducting him in the future."
