WHISTLER, B.C. — The TV screen image of a livestock stable, a straw-filled manger and a swaddled baby Jesus is familiar enough.
But 2.1 million Canadians tuned in Thursday night to see the former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson play the Virgin Mary in A Russell Peters Christmas Special for CTV and The Comedy Network.

The CTV special was produced by Round 2 It Entertainment, Peters’ production shingle, and CPI Pictures.
