Comedian performed at Four Seasons Ball fundraiser Saturday, but was cut off early
Tynan Allan says he attended the Hospital of Regina Foundation's Four Seasons Ball fundraiser on Saturday to support various health care causes, but left the event disgusted by the evening's entertainment.
Allan said comedian Rob Schneider's set included transphobic, misogynistic and anti-vax jokes. Allan said he was horrified by the content as a Black, queer person who works in equity, diversity and inclusion.
"Everyone in the room was groaning, saying, 'What is going on?' Like whispering to themselves. Not a single laugh at times," Allan said. "It was just very apparent how uncomfortable everyone felt and how unacceptable the things he was talking about were."
The Hospitals of Regina Foundation said Schneider was asked to end his performance early once it became clear "the performance did not meet the expectations of our audience and our team."
Schneider immediately left the stage and the organization issued "an unconditional apology" to the guests at the fundraiser...
...Allan said he wished the organization did due diligence before booking Schneider for the fundraising event in the first place.
"He's been anti-vax throughout the pandemic and he's said transphobic things for years," Allan said.
"I understand that you're raising money, that you sometimes need to draw a crowd, but it doesn't take a lot to vet people and specifically to vet people from a values-based perspective."

So... This smug ultra woke Allan dude bought tickets to Rob Schneider's comedy show knowing full well that Schneider's act wasn't woke, and then he was disgusted because it wasn't woke enough for him. What an a**pipe.
This Tynan Allan is likely already complaining because the CBC, which is the most woke television network on earth, referred to him as 'he'... They should've called him 'they' or 'it'... Because that's typically how people as woke as Tynan Allan like to be addressed as.
It is strange that they would hire Schnieder for a Woke location like Regina.
Rob has been spending too much time on the Jimmy Dore show?
Good for Rob. I hope he got paid well and ruined these people’s night.
Waaaahhh he hurt their feelings.
Look at that fayg.
LOOK AT HIM.
“A black queer person.”
Queer maybe but I think he’s Rachel Dolezal Talcom X black.
What were the jokes?
I know who Rob Schneider is and like most of his stuff. I’ve never heard of Tynan Allan nor do I care to.
Transphobic?
Anti-va666?
The horror 😲
The absolute horror 😲
👍🏼
Who wants to eat Queerios for breakfast instead of Cheerios?
Ridicule is always the best way to combat fascistic notions of imposed correctness, an imposition on the majority by less than 10% of the population.So we sit back and allow Sodomites to rule?
And poor Tynan Allen? Why does he look like he has an uncured case of sinutis, has his nose been in all the wrong places?
Rob Schneider is the MAN ! His father was Jewish, so Tynan has a Palestinian hate on him to boot.
Rob is an excellent, brave comedian:
So he insulted the anti-science for being anti-science.
Oh Gawd. Another snowflake who needs to STFU.
"Works?"
These types will go out of their way to be offended, I think being constantly miserable is what makes them happy.
Oh noes the trans freak didnt like what was said..the he/she/that/freak should go have a snickers and perhaps some therapy to deal with the issues that turned it into a freak in the first place
