Dan Aykroyd on the Tragically Hip, ghosts and the blues

Dan Aykroyd has introduced the world to many unforgettable characters, from Beldar Conehead and Elwood Blues to Ghostbuster Ray Stantz and Ray "the auto parts king" Zalinsky.

As one of the original cast members of Saturday Night Live, the Kingston-born actor has cemented his status as a Canadian icon.

Aykroyd was back home to celebrate another Canadian symbol, the Caesar, for "national Caesar day," which also happens to be the 50th anniversary of the drink. He joined q's Tom Power to take a trip down memory lane and look at a career that has spanned more than four decades.
