My childhood was very difficult. I had every childhood disease and then some, but my parents didn't mollycoddle me. They left me to fight those battles on my own. I guess that was very Canadian, very stoic. But it's good. I had to become a warrior. I had to give up hope and find a substitute for hope that would be far more stable.

Being someone who had had a very difficult childhood, a very difficult adolescence - it had to do with not quite poverty, but close.

I was a little prone to depression.
