Season 3 of the Canadian comedy series The Trades premiered on Crave earlier today and Rush's Alex Lifeson makes a guest appearance as Fernie, the bartender at The Leaky Pipe, as we'd reported on last month. The series comes from the same producers as The Trailer Park Boys and follows pipefitter Todd Stool (played by Robb Wells of The Trailer Park Boys) as he navigates his blue-collar life at a refinery with a little help from his family and friends. The first 2 episodes of Season 3 dropped earlier today, and you can see a clip from the show, including Alex Lifeson's character here:
