Canada has the best standup comics in the world\, come see some of them.Starring: Nitish SakhujaFresh of a world tour with Russel PetersBorn and raised in Toronto\, Nitish Sakhuja is a second generation Indian-Canadian whose mantra reigns\, funny over everything.As one of Canada’s top\, young comedians he’s been featured at festivals and clubs around the globe including New Faces at Just For Laughs Montreal\, The Winnipeg Comedy Festival and The Melbourne International Comedy Festival.Gavin CoscarellaToronto comedian Gavin Coscarella delivers stand-up that feels less like a performance and more like overhearing a very funny friend think out loud. With a low-key delivery and high-energy undercurrent\, his conversational\, observational style lets punchlines sneak up on the audience—often landing hardest when you don’t see them coming. Drawing from personal experiences like sobriety\, social absurdity\, and everyday contradictions\, Coscarella balances deliberate awkwardness with genuine warmth. Whether he’s holding court in an intimate room or unpacking the irony of Toronto traffic in real time\, his comedy thrives on relatability\, timing\, and the quiet confidence of someone who trusts the room to catch up.
