TIFF’s big opening gala is still a few hours off, but the industry parties kicked off last night with the Producers Ball at the Royal Ontario Museum. W Network ’s studly twins Drew and Jonathan Scott hosted the gala, which drew Canadian celebs like George Stroumboulopoulos, handyman Mike Holmes and reality TV star Shannon Tweed (who mugged on the red carpet with daughter Sophie ). Meanwhile, Colin Mochrie trolled the charity silent auction tables with his wife Deb McGrath, who observed, “No one’s bidding on the Swarovski necklace!” Mochrie suggested they distract security and make off with it. Instead, the pair duly bid on a bauble, helping organizers raise more than $15,000 for World Vision.
