Canada's Walk of Fame in Toronto is missing an integral star in the story of Canadian history, says its CEO Jeffrey Latimer. Coombs played the title character on Mr. Dressup from 1967 to 1996, a role that earned him over 400,000 votes in the poll. Cathie LeFort, the late Coombs' daughter, now hopes the outpouring of adoration from Canadians will land Mr. Dressup a place on the Walk of Fame. "Does he deserve to be on Canada's Walk of Fame? Latimer added he is excited by the idea because he, like many Canadians, grew up watching Mr. Dressup.
