Famous Canadians? Are you sure it's not Tim Horton? That guy's name is all over the place in Canada.

Secondly, no mention of Nickelback

, Loverboy, sure.

 

There we go!  Now if we can get a log of everyone's favorite Canadian beer.  Used to be Molson Ice back when they made Molson Ice and I was listening to Loverboy.  Nowadays, I'd probably try something a little more out there like Flying Monkeys Acadian Groove Canadian Maple Porter....it sounds like fun!

[twinsnorth49]

Polar Bears are not to be trifled with.

 

The guy at the 45 second mark of this video is a pinhead.

 

 

He obviously wasn't on the same buggy as this fellow.

Oooh, one of the only redeeming things about Toronto is Flying Monkeys, one of the best breweries out there. The Smashbomb Atomic IPA is fantastic and so is the Cadillac Graveyard Oatmeal Stout. Haven't had the Acadian Groove yet but it's on the list.

The ASPCA agrees with half of this statement.

Some facts about Tim Horton's.

 

Yes, it's  popular here, it has roughly twice the number of outlets as McDonald's in Canada.

 

It holds 62% of the coffee market here.......wut?!

 

It also holds 76% of the baked goods market in Canada......geez their donuts aren't that good.

 

Tim Horton died in 1974, long before their popularity took hold. I would hazard a guess that not many people under the age of 40 have any clue who Tim Horton is.

 

They are owned by Burger King.

 

I don't like their coffee.

Then they need to pound more monkeys!

Celine Dion would like to have a word with you...

Sure she would, but she saves her voice for concerts only, so she'd probably just have a sign with him.

We might have to work out a trade ...

Wasn't Tim Horton the first person to hear a Who? :-)

This video may be the most Canadian thing I've ever seen. North, do I need to ask if you have goalie equipment??

Liriano returns.

[twinssporto]

Sorry to restart the topic but I kind of like Gordon Lightfoot.  I think he's Canadian.

 

"Sundown better take care If I've seen you been walking around my back stair" or something like that...

[Platoon]

Drake is probably the most famous now... Sadly. 

Though the one person who's fame has brought multiple generations together hasn't been mentioned yet. 

 

Miss BayWatch.

I am sure you do miss Baywatch! It was a show you could have on without the sound, and not miss any of the plot!

Just another Canadian question.  Why a 6:07pm start time?  I see 6:10, 7:10, 6:05, 7:05, etc. on a regular basis.  Is it their national anthem that makes the start time seem irregular?

 

Just curious.

Time in Canada is metric!
