Can Man Dan Biography

Can Man Dan is one of the most popular and richest Activist who was born on July 31, 1987 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Dan Johnstone (born July 31, 1987 in Edmonton, Alberta), also known as “Can Man Dan,” is a Canadian anti-poverty activist, philanthropist, community organizer, and social activist. Alongside his non-profit organization, the Can Man Dan Foundation, Dan works to alleviate poverty, assist vulnerable populations, and strengthen communities in Alberta by working closely with local community members, various levels of the Canadian government, and other non-profit groups and charities.

Johnstone’s activism and philanthropy work began in Edmonton, Alberta in the summer of 2011, when he began going door-to-door around various neighbourhoods by himself collecting food and clothing donations for various charities, such as the Edmonton Food Bank, the youth shelter, and various homeless shelters and soup kitchens. In June 2013, Can Man Dan provided immediate assistance to Calgary’s Food Bank and those affected by the 2013 Alberta floods in the form of 5000 pounds of food. In both December 2013 and December 2014, local Edmonton chain restaurant, Delux Burger Bar, featured Can Man Dan as their “Celebrity Chef.” Delux Burger Bar locations across Edmonton added the Can Man Dan burger to their menus, and gave a portion of sales to the Edmonton Food Bank on Dan’s behalf. Dan also arranged to have the Can Man Dan burger served to hundreds of Edmonton’s homeless & less fortunate as he hosted “Burger Night” at one of Edmonton’s local homeless shelters. Johnstone made headlines in April 2014 after he announced that he would wrestle in a professional wrestling match with Canadian wrestling promotion, the PWA (The Prairie Wrestling Alliance) to raise money, food and awareness for Edmonton’s homeless youth population. Despite suffering a fractured nose during the bout, Johnstone ultimately won his debut wrestling match raising thousands of dollars and thousands of pounds of food for Edmonton’s Youth Empowerment and Support Services (YESS), an organization that Dan’s mother had used when she was a teenager. In the spring of 2015, Johnstone started a new community project aimed to help struggling locally owned businesses attain new customers called “Localive”. In June 2015, “WO Magazine” listed Johnstone as one of their “Top 5 Anti-Poverty Activists”.
