Don't forget John Garand and the band Heart.
Seriously, though, there is a slew of internationally known Canadians. However, many Americans mistake them for their own. We tend to look, speak, and behave rather similarly, after all.
How many famous Canadians can you name off? |

Never heard of John Garand or Heart, sorry.
I know Jim Carrey, Pamela Anderson, and the two i've already mentioned.
I'm sure Canada is great. Just not that many talented people there i guess. |

Neil Young, no?
Anyhow, I suspect the OP is a little bitter after today's result. |

The OP certainly does seem to have a bit of an agenda; almost like s/he's collecting more fodder for the 'Canadians always have to tell me which famous people are Canadian' and such threads.
OP, if it makes you feel any better, I, for one, am in favour of giving Ryan Miller Canadian citizenship. He's on your A-list, yes? |

| While I was sad (and poorer) that USA lost today, Canada played a great game, and definately dominated in OT. The appluase for Ryan Miller was great to hear, he did an amazing job and makes me want to follow the Sabres more. Overall, great games |
