So his mom, a former dancer/actress/choreographer/singer took him to her agent. Little Jason's dreams soon became a reality, as he started doing local commercials. By the age of eight, he starred in his first made-for-television movie, "Stacey" for the Canadian Broadcasting Company.

Venice motif. Priestley, an oenophile who has some 3,000 bottles in his private collection, helps buy wine for the restaurant. On opening night
