Both Alex Trebek and Gordon Lightfoot were born in Canada, so I guess it makes sense their paths would have crossed professionally at some point. Here they are in 1963 on Music Hop, a teen dance show in Canada akin to American Bandstand. Trebek was its host. CBC: "In the interview, Trebek calls Lightfoot 'Gordie,' Lightfoot calls Trebek 'Al,' and Trebek hopes Lightfoot's upcoming songs 'turn out real well' for him. It's all very endearing."
