Don Johnston: Jack Bauer

Johnston Dept: Not that the barber brothers ever dropped his name; they aren t sure who Sutherland is. But longtime patrons like Don Johnston have been keen to push the story, noting the young Jack Bauer once lived near Firwood plaza where the barber shop stood for nearly 40 years, according to The Star. It turns out Johnston is right. Days before the humble landmark closes for good after 42 years, Sutherland has confirmed he used to visit the Sicilian-born stylists and as beloved as Joe and Gino s Barber Shop has been to some of the men of central Etobicoke, it always carried extra buzz as the place Kiefer Sutherland may have been a client. Where else would he have gone? There weren t that many barbers in the area back then, argued Johnston, who still drives in from Schomberg, north of Toronto, to get his regular Joe-and-Gino trim.
