No.

HINT #3:

 

As Gen Xers, we'd see him perform on TV all the time in syndication with the other members of his comedy team. He looks much different at the time of the photo than he used to look while performing.

No. You went the wrong direction in time going forward. Way too far in time! He was on syndication in the 70s and was a very different age.

No and I already had him up LOL

 

No, not Canadian... they were very American and not a troupe, more like a gang.
