Nigel the Unicorn

So what is with the unicorn? A question we are are often asked, to be 100% honest it was a family outing in late summer 2016 that had us browsing the Halloween department at a local store,  our youngest son Kyle saw a mask and had to have it, it was a toss up between the talking unicorn head or the bacon costume. Hard choice , bacon is awesome, but in the end this unicorn mask came home.


​Kyle is over the top, he is what I imagine Jim Carrey would of been like as a child, no filter, doesn't know when to stop and a ridiculous amount of confidence and humour. His mind works so fast, he is very entertaining and even under pressure he shines. So when he placed that unicorn mask on his head, it was the birth of a new character for him to play.

This cell phone video was taken shortly after we got home from the store and his first time putting the mask on.  
I think Nigel was born right then and there.


We loved the character that Nigel had become so much that we brought him with us to film the television show Dragon's Den.
Dragon's Den is a national television show that has hopeful entrepreneurs pitch their show to a panel of investors, in the hope that they will invest in their business, very much like Shark Tank in the United States. We actually applied two years ago , but at the time we were to new of a company and they asked us to come back and  two years later  we did.

But this time we went in with the mind set of getting to air and to do that we had to be entertaining, television entertaining.           We needed Nigel.
I wish I could tell you the reaction the Dragons had to Nigel,  I cant,  the show is currently in editing with expected air time to be between September 2017 and March 2018, I know!! can you imagine keeping  your mouth shut that long?      All I can say is  when it does air,  you MUST watch it. 
​

​You can however watch this video of him after the taping of Dragons Den when Nigel hit the streets of downtown Toronto, it might give you a pretty good 
indication of what it was like in the studio. 
I will share this quote with you that I said to the Dragons "For our family life is all about having fun, if they are too many days in a row and we are not having fun, something has to change"

We take that mindset in all we do, especially business. 
​Cheers, Monique
