He's making a list, and checking it twice. He's going to let us know who's been naughty or nice. That's right -- Al Gore is coming to town.

If you have seen the Oscar-nominated documentary An Inconvenient Truth, then you are familiar with Gore's lecture on the dangers of climate change. The movie was directed by Davis Guggenheim, who wanted to bring Gore's lecture to a much larger audience.

"Al Gore strips his presentations of politics, laying out the facts for the audience to draw their own conclusions in a charming, funny and engaging style, and by the end has everyone on the edge of their seats, gripped by his haunting message," said Guggenheim.

Gore will be giving the same lecture here at the University of Toronto's Convocation Hall on February 21, 2007, at 7 P.M.

For your chance to see the former American Vice-President, contact the University of Toronto's box office at www.uofttix.ca, or by calling 416-978-8849. According to Torontoist contributor Jenelle Rupchand, tickets sold out within two hours of going on sale! Keep your eyes on Craigslist.
