Get push notifications with news, features and more.Reynolds began his speech by explaining that his close friend from Kitsilano is now a teacher at the school, and he couldn't miss the opportunity to crack a few jokes about his pal.
Moving on, Reynolds described his two years at Kitsilano as the "best thing that ever happened" to him and revealed that he is still friends with many of the people he graduated with."Now, I'm probably not going to drop and mics here... but I can pass on this one little chestnut of wisdom," the father of three continued. "Something that you might want to start if you're not already doing it.
"You've heard the expression 'divide and conquer,' you see it everywhere and dividing people is just a means to distract them, disarm them, whereby giving one an opportunity to conquer, and the world seems to subsist on this idea more and more and more. And it's getting really f------ boring," he said. "It's just overdone and I think that you guys want to be stylish and ahead of the curve. And I believe that your generation will be.
Reynolds then ended the speech by telling the students they would be receiving a free large pizza from Nat’s Pizza on him. The pizzeria was one of Reynolds' favorite in his high school days.
