Chuck Gammage Animation on James Street North designed and produced the cartoon.
The studio relocated to Hamilton from Toronto in June 2011. Owner, Chuck Gammage, lives in Paris, ON. He wasn’t available for comment.

“I’ve got a 20-minute drive to work instead of two hours,” he said smiling. “I used to be full of rage, thinking ‘what am I doing on this highway?’” He uses the extra hours to spend time with his wife or out golfing, he said.

The Creative Class world continues to get flatter.
