Her jokes are actually funny. She doesn't make you feel like she's trying to draw attention to herself or her "disability", but to how it can be perceived with humor. Way to go girl!

[@sebastianprang3336]

“You know what ? You might die” killed me 😂😂😂

[@kathleenclark653]

I am thrilled this gal is getting the positive commentary! I saw her perform in Toronto and immediately thought she belonged on Trevor Noah Daily Show! What a pleasure to see how far she has come!

[@markjharvey]

Absolutely hilarious! She’s so funny 😆

[@koreancanuck]

This was great. I loved it. I hope she goes far in this

[@lacteur1]

Her timing and delivery are spot on. Excellent material. Her style really reminds me of Samantha Bee. Kudos!

[@desireewhite2379]

She has a really cool down to Earth 🌎 🌎🌍 PERSONALITY

[@bdsaints1986]

I need more Courtney!!

[@MegsCarpentry-lovedogs]

Gosh! That was so refreshing! This lady has talent💯🇨🇦.

[@redfox1102]

What a beautiful woman and she is so funny.

[@andymcneil6568]

Courtney is just funny. What an outlook she has. Hats off to you Ma’m.

[@lor2940]

She's the loveliest person. I met her when my fiancé took sketch-writing class with her at the Second City in Toronto. Go, Courtney! 💕

[@DanceEquations]

Awesome job, you're such a pro. I wish I could see ya live again soon! Cheers and congratulations!

[@thomasn5752]

Enjoyed that. Original, really funny jokes, great audition!! Look forward to seeing Courtney again. Good Luck!

[@Maxy_9090]

My daughter was born without half her left arm, im going to show her this video, she struggles daily, but not with her arm abnormality, its with the kids that are cruel and pick on her..Courtney is right, people born with differences figure things out, they learn how to do things in ways that works for them..I wouldn't want my girl to be born any different, she's perfect to me and every day because of her i keep moving forward, no matter the difficulties i have with my medical issues or the pain i go through i always think to myself what would Makenzie do..I see her get up and go to school everyday with her smile on and face the kids that pick on her ,she's brave and doesn't let anyone bring her down❤..Great audition, Courtney's jokes were funny and her personality is the best!

[@Matkai]

Courtney is a true Canadian gem and absolutely funny! I love her so much. Well done.

[@seyornamathew4663]

"I dont wish I had hands. I mostly wish you guys didn't have hands"😂😂

[@joseangel1119]

Her closing was hilarious lmao she really funny

[@andymcneil6568]

When one is disabled, and I speak from experience, it’s all about being positive.

[@kristenshoemaker1296]

[@skiptrack326]

[@someonelikeyou3359]

Am I the only Canadian who didn't know there was a Canada's Got Talent?

[@loveforgod4505]

She was awesome 😂😂😂😂

[@desireewhite2379]

I noticed there's been a rise on comedians who have disabilities because in the past it was frowned upon but they're actually taking their disability and using it you know to bring humor to people but to show them that they make they can live with their lives and be successful even though tragedy has struck them and they just want to bring laughter to everybody Brilliant simply BRILLIANT 😁 👍

[@MsManningMsManning]

Good writing. Very funny!

[@missurl4191]

[@kkkkmm0]

I like her. ❤️❤️❤️

[@michaeledward2518]

she should have said that she is a juggler from toronto to get the first laugh going ....... love from hamilton ontario canada

[@wholeshebang1]

So, you chose to _mansplain_ - to tell a woman how she could do *her job* better, even offering her a "joke" - rather than giving her a genuine compliment for her original material. 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@kat35lulu88]

Despite her differences.... NOT disabilities!!!!! She's lovely. She's witty.

[@meliprincexx_peach]

Lmao she’s great

[@irandude1655]

Courtny needs a Netflix Special. she is funny.

[@ParalyticAngel]

Brave sweetheart and really funny ;))))

[@PIMPSTREZZ-DNA-FAM]

❤❤❤🎉

[@chrisburr8662]

So Hilarious and best Comedian of CGT Season 2, she fits the mold of that Disabled Comedian that can land on that final podium at the end, while I dont think shes winning or beating Shea, I can see a Final Top 3 Finish at the end.

[@jonathanVN1864]

Wow. Did not know Howie was canadian ;)

[@fmreyes2216]

👏❤️

[@TheJusnic82]

She looks great lol

[@dorareynolds5304]

She’s an overcomer

[@tawakalahmed3883]

So howie is the Simon of Canada's got talent

[@paklebye]

[@SpiralMystic]

A little more practice should help with the nerves, because she’s definitely funny. Good luck!

[@happiness459]

She’s Naturally funny.

[@christophgeisinger]

Hallo Courtney, Iv'd seen You on You Tube...and i'm wish You a little bit luck in this Live , whith your plan's and ideas...So on....i am will be with you...and i'm follow You...😊😊😊😊😊

[@tico4940]

Great humor and talent,funny and when it comes to music or humor dosent matter the shape etc of the person.Helps for some comics but also theres ones with other issues.Handi-cap is defined by the person with issues not me,not my call.

[@mistrjt9213]

How does Courtney sign stuff?

[@Phoenix-nl2ut]

She’s funny

[@chilled532]

Giga Chad

[@TheJusnic82]

imagine a stump job hehe

[@davidbarrett8058]

give the lady a hand. very clever

[@cayden8794]

There's a special place in hell for me for laughing at your comment.

[@davidbarrett8058]

@@cayden8794 See you there.

[@alijane6675]

Practice, practice, practice! The writing is tight, and the delivery is almost there. Just need more practice.

[@jesse3397]

Ahahaha

[@ddruxman3579]

She was amusing but to be honest, for me it was like a very entertaining TED Talk , not thigh slapping stand-up funny

[@drivebybodypierce]

Talented young lady… And wayyyyy funnier than anything Lilly Singh ever did.

[@uncled1275]

the audio is really bad. the judges off stage sounds good but on stage sounds like u gais put a mic on the speaker

[@jamieanderson6222]

There was a guy on agt a few years back almost the same way he was funny

[@wholeshebang1]

"Almost the same way"? What does that mean?

[@50shadesofprada22]

OK about her arms but what about her legs and eyes

[@hugohackenbush1554]

Sweet girl but the material was very weak. One can only hope that Courtney has better in her quiver for the next round. I wish her luck.

[@JacobeKun]

She pursued comedy so that she will be fooled by herself that some are laughing at her disability and think that they really enjoy her jokes... but They really enjoy her jokes

[@wholeshebang1]

That doesn't sound like a compliment.

[@JacobeKun]

@@wholeshebang1 Id get hurt by myself if they kept insulting me over my deformation. But she instead think it all as a joke to make everyone happy. Shes being too positive

[@anonymousfella5473]

This made me feel both sad and ok. I laughed cause she had good delivery,. Bit I think it's so sad that she doesnt have what most people take for granted. .. The world is completely falling apart, and this girly is up there telling jokes about her disability. Craazy.

[@jordanhatesyou1512]

Okay she wasn't that funny she was good but not hilarious

[@johnmadsen37]

What do you all a girl comedian with no arms or legs? Skip How do you get her out of a tree? Wave

[@777kerokeropi4]

Let us repent from our sins and accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior one day we will face him and those who doesn't repent from there sins and didn't accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior would be sent to hell for he didn't want God so he will go to place where God is nowhere to be found but the good news is this Jesus has already died for you so you don't have to suffer hell all you need to do is accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and repent from your sins you will be saved that Is the good news my friends that salvation is free thats all ask me if your confused at something God bless you

[@wholeshebang1]

Go away, and take your religious *twaddle* elsewhere. You're bringing me down - this was a *_comedy_* performance on national TV, *not* your personal pulpit.

[@hugohackenbush1554]

Are you one of those North American nut jobs you read about? You know, the ones all preachy and old timey but have a secret bunker filled with wives.

[@redrap491]

Self esteem 10/10 but to be real... people gonna hate me for this, but she just was not a good comedian, just some sweet confident girl who was cracking jokes.

[@melissamuller8417]

What happened to Nelly Furtado?!

[@redrap491]

You didn't know?!?! she got what we got, the disease of not having any talents left

[@mariee.5912]

🤔

[@notbuilt4onlyfans]

I don't know what's wrong with all you, but that wasn't funny. Probably would've been inspirational as a TEDtalk, but not funny. Sorry.

[@jeremielajoie6713]

damn canada got talent need to figure out their sound mastering. sounds freaking awful

[@anthonyvanzant4818]

nothing against her but wasnt funny

[@johnathanthompson4428]

I don't think she's funny
