The Great Big Book of Canadian Humour Includes "Doug Sneyd" Cartoon

Doug joined an impressive list of Canadian men and women - writers, comedians, cartoonists, comic essayists, etc. - featured in The Great Big Book of Canadian Humour, edited by Allan Gould and published by Macmillan Canada.

Gould included a single-panel Doug Sneyd in the 1992 publication.

In his intro commentary, Gould wrote, "This country has produced some of the richest lodes of comedy in the world, and it is about time that a goodly selection be found in one place."

AAEC Membership

Because his single-panel news cartoon Doug Sneyd was syndicated in newspapers across North America, Doug was a member of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists and supported its credo: "We believe that, as an important segment of America's editorialists, we have the obligation to defend and advance the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States."

In the annual AAEC membership book, cartoonists supplied samples of their work for inclusion with contact information.
