… that Neil Hope, aka “Wheels” has died – and has been dead for 5 years.
Hope was a main character on Degrassi Junior High and later, Degrassi High. These were great ground-breaking Canadian TV series back in the 80’s. The shows dealt with subjects that were taboo at the time, including teen pregnancy, homophobia and bullying – and it was a gritty and realistic presentation of teen life at the time.
Very strange that we are hearing about this just now – but I suppose the family had its reasons to keep it quiet for so long.

Ok I know there’s a grieving period but come on 5 years not informing the public.
That is crazy. His poor family, waiting four years for that confirmation.
