B.C. comedy show cancelled following anger over Robert Pickton merch

Danger Cats Comedy made light of serial killer’s victims in T-shirts sold ahead of New West show

A B.C. comedy show has been cancelled after it was discovered that the group set to perform was selling merchandise making light of serial killer Robert Pickton’s murders.

Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy B.C. announced in a since-deleted Facebook post on Tuesday (Feb. 27) that it would no longer be hosting Danger Cats Comedy on March 24, as planned. The comedy trio confirmed the cancellation in their own social media post, saying they would also be backing out of upcoming shows in other areas of Canada.
