Canada has given the world: - zippers - gasoline - variable pitch propellors - Moosehead - snowballs - Celine Dion - etc
As a Canadian, I'm embarrassed about these 2 on your list!
What the f*ck is wrong with Moosehead? Pretty much the best non-premium-priced beer on the planet.
And Celine Dion, while she might not be your taste or mine, is objectively speaking one of the world's most successful singers.
I definitely would have added Rush to the list.
Plus: - Donald Sutherland, and of course his spinoff, Keifer Sutherland - Skidoos - insulin - the CANDU reactor - Dan Aykroyd - Eugene Levy, John Candy, and Rick Moranis - Canadian Club - Conquer Club - the Robertson screwdriver - canola oil - Sonar - Coffee Crisp - lacrosse - the Wonderbra - plexiglass - the Bloody Ceasar - McGill University - Matt Groening - theory of plate tectonics - mapping the visual cortex of the brain - discovery of stem cells - Northern Dancer - Farley Mowat - the Blackberry (may have fallen on hard times now, but was the trailblazer in its field) - the Guess Who - Neil Young - arctic char - Kraft dinner - fiddleheads - chokeberries - and of course, peanut butter
Some pretty funny people are Canadian. Here is a small sample of some of the more famous funny Canadians...
Will Arnett Dan Aykroyd Brent Butt John Candy Jim Carrey Michael Cera Tommy Chong Joe Flaherty Dave Foley Michael J. Fox Rick Green Tom Green Phil Hartman Ron James Cathy Jones Eugene Levy Rich Little Norm MacDonald Howie Mandel Rick Mercer Lorne Michaels Rick Moranis Mike Myers Leslie Nielsen Catherine O'Hara Ryan Reynolds Seth Rogen William Shatner Martin Short Frank Shuster Steve Smith Alan Thicke Dave Thomas Johnny Wayne
