	I feel like there's someone else who's really famous that's not on here... but I can't think of who it is right now.

	fatbeard:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 04:24 GMT	26 points
	"Busty star of Baywatch"... that's gotta describe at least a half dozen people

	Keit:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 04:32 GMT	68 points
	As a Canadian, this quiz was pretty easy. After all, in kindergarten they teach us the list of all the famous Canadians...yep, all 24 of them.

	JohnJF:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 04:34 GMT	5 points
	24/24. It took me about a minute and a half to get 23 of them and then like three minutes to correctly spell McLachlan.

	Could not for the life of me spell Aykroyd. Ackroyd, Akroyd, Ackroid, Aykroid even... so missed Phil Hartman, Todd McFarlane, Steve Nash, and, of course, Dan Aykroyd, even though I knew it.

	No bonus answer for 'that b*tch Ann Murry too?' First thing I thought of with the Blame Canada lyrics

	ambrosiasweet:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 04:45 GMT	17 points
	Thanks so much for this quiz! We Canadians tend to make a point of knowing which celebrities are fellow canucks. I think I'll have a few 8% beers to celebrate!

	do i really have to be the first to say where the hell is john candy?

	I'm a little disappointed Bob and Doug Mckenzie didn't make this list, eh? Hosers.

	Now now, the Canadian government has apologized for Bryan Adams on several occasions!

	Also Terry Fox and David Suzuki. They've done quite a lot for many many Canadians and non-Canadians alike.

	If there's any Airplane! fans here, I think "Shirley" should be acceptable for Nielsen lol

	I didn't know that Brendan Fraser was a canadian.

	regis:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 05:08 GMT	11 points
	After finally learning how to spell all of those Asian and African country names, it's time to learn how to spell these celebrity names.

	Doinel:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 05:11 GMT	11 points
	Jack Kerouac was born and raised in Lowell, Massachusetts to French-Canadian parents. He wasn't Canadian.

	Neil Peart should definitely be on he seeing as he is one of the greatest drummers of all time.

	nhrafan:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 05:49 GMT	5 points
	Any quiz that includes The Naked Gun gets my vote. Now, thanks to the Kerouac clue, I think I will take the "We Didn't Start the Fire" quiz again, for I have it stuck in my head.

	gurl94:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 05:50 GMT	13 points
	any HIMYM fans? a bonus answer for robin sparkles would be awesome. "gonna rock ya body til canada day!"

	zalagreensburry, I prefer to think of it as the most famous Canadians pretending to be Americans

	To be fair, Americans didn't elect Bush twice either.

	raisingfear101:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 06:41 GMT	2 points
	How about James Labrie on the next edition? I never knew alot of these people were canadian.

	debbiedoesnothin:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 06:43 GMT	2 points
	Good thing my life didn't depend on being able to spell McLachlan. I tried every spelling but the right one.

	Otacon:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 07:21 GMT	13 points
	This quiz has to set a record for the most names that are impossible to spell. Kerouac? Aykroyd? Morissette? McLachlan?

	Where's Sutherland? I had no idea some of those were Canadians - most were fairly easy, though. Nice quiz.

	KingKonstantine:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 08:07 GMT	2 points
	Yeah, they forgot "star of TV series 24", and his father, too. Brendan Fraser was born in Indiana. Only his father is Canadian. Checked it on imdb.com. Little bit of a stretch there.

	GoonerLover66:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 08:15 GMT	2 points
	Can we have a better clue for Howie Mandel? There are many versions of Deal or No Deal internationally, all with different hosts. Can't it be something like "Played Dr. Wayne Fiscus in St. Elswhere"?

	chillicothe20:	Jun 28th, 2009 at 08:34 GMT	6 points
	Where are Gordon Lightfoot and Anne Murray?
