I'm trying to put together a Canadian-themed lesson for Canada Day. (I realize Canada was yesterday but my classes are cancelled until Monday because of final exams.) Anyway, I'm trying to think of famous Canadians that Koreans would know. So far, the only one I can think of is Avril Lavigne (and that's kinda sad). Can anyone think of some others? Much appreciated.

Michael J Fox, Kiefer Sutherland, and Keanu Reeves

Avril Lavigne and Celine Dion a lot of students will know. Anyone else you're out of luck.

Some people old enough to remember the 1988 Olympics may remember Ben Johnson.

A lot of my students have been writing Justin Bieber's name on their desks recently.... which may mean that he's infiltrated the peninsula. But it's another suggestion for you.

Jim Carrey.

Some boys might know Owen Hargreaves, the Canadian that plays in the EPL.

[Charlie Bourque]

Thought Keanu Reeves was born in Lebanon.

Oh god... Justin Bieber is Canadian?! I don't know if I want to draw attention to that fact.

Kim Yuna (well, she has probably lived there longer than Korea)
Kim Yuna's coach. They all know who he is and you can also introduce them to homosexuals as well.

[Who's Your Daddy?]

I'm Canadian and I don't know some of these people:)

Brian Orsor is Kim Yuna's coach. He's probably the best know Canadian right now. Hell Samsung is paying him and his student for their air con commercials
