Clifton Cremo
Since beginning his career in stand-up comedy, @cliftoncremo has been entertaining Canadian audiences with his deft brand of storytelling and wry absurdism. Clifton's perspective on his Mi'kmaw upbringing and his unique outlook on First Nations issues brought him national attention by showing that no matter the divisiveness of an issue, humor can be a common ground.
Clifton was recently part of Rise Together with host Ron James - a Hurricane Fiona fundraiser that raised over $100,000 for the Cape Breton Red Cross. Clifton has also appeared at the Halifax Comedy Festival for CBC television in 2022 and 2023 in addition to being a part of their Best of the Fest tour in 2021. Clifton has also appeared on CBC radio's Laugh Out Loud and CBC’s The Debaters. In March of 2023 he recorded with Just For Laughs Originals as part of a compilation album “Divorced Robot Arms” and has appeared at the Just For Laughs festival in Toronto and Vancouver. Clifton has also performed alongside top comedians including opening for Kenny vs. Spenny, Joe Pera, and Jon Dore.
Whether he's onstage at a comedy club, a local bar, or even a funeral (seriously), Clifton always manages to bring the laughs.
