San Diego, you were slightly off on a couple

 

Taken from a Canadian Poll

 

1 Jon Lajoie - Had to look in Wiki, but apparantly he is a clown/comedian from Quebec who is famous on the internet, never heard of him

2 Terry Fox - Lost his leg to Cancer and decided to try and run cross-country to raise money for Cancer research. Started on the east coast and had to stop just before leaving northern Ontario before dying from Cancer

3 Pierre Elliott Trudeau - Famous and popular former Prime Minister of Canada. I believe his wife at one point dated Mick Jagger

4 Sir Frederick Banting - Helped to Discover insulin

5 David Suzuki - Famous "eco-guy" in Canada, was preaching for things to be "Green" long before Gore did (and his daughter is kind of hot)

6 Lester B. Pearson - Former Prime Minister, airport in Toronto was named after him, introduced universal health care, student loans, Canadian Pension Plan and the current Canadian Flag

7 Don Cherry - Canadian Hockey Icon, former player/coach and wearer of the most tackiest suits. Loadmouth who has to now be on a delay during his Hockey Night in Canada broadcasts due to previous comments

8 Sir John A. Macdonald - First Prime Minister of Canada

9 Alexander Graham Bell - Inventor of the Telephone

10 Wayne Gretzky - Probably the best Hockey player to ever play the game. The "Michael Jordan" of Hockey, and Current part owner and coach of the Phoenix Coyotes

* I only had to look up 2 of them - Jon Lajoie and I could not remember exactly what banting did until I looked it up

How about Brent Butt, the star and creator of Corner Gas, the most popular Canadian comedy show ever?

If you do not know who Don Cherry is....you are NOT a hockey fan. The guy is an ICON. He is the Howard Cosell of the NHL.

2. Jessica Simpson

3. Fred savage
