A demonstration once morest the event was also planned.
“I don’t feel like an evening under high tension where people who have bought tickets risk being taken to task,” he underlines.
The comedian announced this week a return to public life to mark his two years of sobriety. He had to record a podcast of questions and answers in front of an audience.
Julien Lacroix was the subject of allegations of sexual assault and misconduct in July 2020 following an investigation by “Le Devoir”
“I thought I had finally found a healthy way to approach all of this. This is obviously not the case,” he wrote.
In his publication, he admits that the turmoil caused by his return to the public eye greatly affects those close to him. It is therefore for all his reasons that he decided to cancel his event.
Those who have already purchased tickets will be refunded in full.
