The DWSC pleasantly surprised "The Nerdist" Chris Hardwick by filling up the first 6 rows of the Comedy Bar in Toronto on Saturday February 11. In preparation for his upcoming Comedy Central Stand-up Special, Chris' hilarious routine had all of us laughing and all the geek girls swooning.
NOW Magazine's Article covering the show even made reference to the DWSC's support for Hardwick...
"Point of fact: at the final show late Saturday night, members from Canada’s Doctor Who Society took up several rows..."
We hope to see The Nerdist back up here soon but, in the meantime, be sure to check out The Nerdist, The Talking Dead and keep an eye out for his special!

Wizard World Toronto Comic Con was a huge success for the DWSC!
Our table was visited by hundreds of enthusiastic Doctor Who Fans, excited to see our new Fan Group on the scene!
The DWSC hosted a Doctor Who Panel featuring Canadian Author Graeme Burk, which had the longest queue of the day! Graeme followed the panel with a sold out Signing Event for his new book "Who is the Doctor". If you have not picked up your copy yet, it's available online through ECW Press, Chapters and other book retailers.
We had collectables to view, items to take away from the table such as copies of Vortex by Big Finish, trading cards, mini cards, colouring and activity pages. Fans stopped by to find out about our group and to also just chat about Doctor Who. We had a daily draw with exciting giveaways including exclusive one-of-a-kind merchandise and signed copies of "Who is the Doctor".
Dalek Auric was also in attendance, honouring the DWSC table with his presence. The highlight of our weekend was his celebrity encounters with Dean Stockwell (Quantum Leap, Battlestar Galactica), Catherine Mary Stewart (The Last Starfighter), (Being Human's) Meaghan Rath, Sam Witwer and Sam Huntington, and last, but most definitely not least, Colin Ferguson (Eureka)! Colin had multiple encounters with Dalek Auric, including an intimate moment with some hand/plunger sanitizer!
We cannot express how truly fantastic Colin was this weekend, except to extend to him an Honorary Doctor Who Society of Canada Membership. COLIN WILL BE EXTERMINATED LAST!
We'd also like to send an extra Thank You to the Organizers, Staff and Volunteers of Wizard World for a great weekend and for letting us take part in it with you!

The new DWSC mugs are on sale at events!
Meet our logo designer, Morgan Dunbar, who can happily tell you that your morning coffee will taste much better from a DWSC mug!
"But for me, the surprising highlight of the whole event didn’t come via the Con’s much publicized celebrity headliners, but by way of The Doctor Who Society, a Toronto-based group only a few months old..."
DWSC Artist Alley is LIVE
The Doctor Who Society of Canada launched the DWSC Artist Alley on Tuesday May 1.
The DWSC Artist Alley is a free venue for Canadian artisans to post their original and unique Doctor Who related art and crafts. So much time and passion goes into these homemade works that the DWSC felt that these artisans needed a home.
The DWSC Artist Alley is also a place for Doctor Who fans to find these special items outside of the Convention floor. If you need a crocheted Adipose, a 10th charm or any other Doctor Who crafts, visit us on Facebook at...
