WP:BLP of a comedian, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing our inclusion criteria for comedians. The sole "reference" here is his IMDb profile, which is not a notability-clinching source in and of itself in the absence of any journalist-written coverage about his career in real media -- and even on a search for better sources, literally all I can find is the presence of his name in a handful of entertainment event calendar listings, which are not notability-bolstering sources either. And the strongest notability claim here, a Canadian Comedy Award nomination, would be fine if the article were properly sourced, but is not highly mega-notable enough to grant him an "inherent" notability freebie in the absence of a properly demonstrated WP:GNG pass.
