However, he is best known for playing the ex-convict Mike Hamar on the Canadian sitcom ''Series/TheRedGreenShow'' and the escape artist Rennes "the Wren" on the 1997 science fiction film ''Film/{{Cube}}''. |

He was particularly prominent in cartoons created by Creator/{{Nelvana}}, with major roles on such iconic works as ''WesternAnimation/{{The Adventures of Tintin|1991}}'', ''WesternAnimation/PippiLongstocking'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Redwall}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/{{Franklin}}''. However, another notable voice acting role of his was Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''WesternAnimation/TheRescuersDownUnder'', where he played the lovably neurotic frilled lizard Frank. |
