Tony Sampson (born July 26, 1977)[1] is a Canadian musician, oiler, and former actor. He is best known for his role as Eddy in Ed, Edd n Eddy.

Career[edit]

Sampson has played the role of Flash in the Canadian television drama The Odyssey and Eddy from Ed, Edd, n Eddy. He has also worked for Vancouver's Ocean Productions and Voicebox Productions, primarily in anime. After Ed, Edd n Eddy ended in 2009, Sampson retired from acting to work in the oil sands industry in Fort McMurray where he operates heavy equipment,[1] and later revealed this was because the production company he was working under threatened to blacklist him from the acting industry after requesting a modest raise.[2] Since 2013, he has been a musical artist with songs on Spotify and iTunes.[3] Sampson once made a guest appearance at the March Toronto Anime Con in 2006.[4]
