	This Canadian is proud to say this quiz was beyond easy.

	Excellent quiz - great to see the curlers there!

	My only complaint was that your pic of Gretzky is from his stint with the Rangers. I would have rather seen the Blues. But since he's from CANADA, why not the Oilers???

	I decided to use the Rangers picture because I wanted one of Gretzky from his later years. Also, for those interested, there is now a sequel: http://www.sporcle.com/games/nscox/canadian-athletes-part-ii-pictures

	love the quiz.. what sport did Brett Hart play??

	nscox:	Feb 13th, 2012 at 21:54 GMT		2 points
	I must say, I'm surprised at how low Terry Fox, Rick Hansen and Georges St. Pierre are. The funny thing is, UFC President Dana White once said Georges St. Pierre was the "most popular athete to ever come out of Canada".

	@CNTower10, Bret Hart is a legendary pro wrestler.

	Awesome quiz.

	Adding to Theosaurus, Bret "Hitman" Hart also inspired the name of one of Canada's premier junior hockey teams, the Calgary Hitmen.

	Never knew about Morneau and Larry Walker

	Thank you for including Terry Fox & Rick Hansen. They weren't professional, neither were known for competition, but both perfectly fit the definition of athlete. And hero.

	no Rich Harden? The guy that throws 100mph

Comment below threshold: show it

	I'm a little stunned by how few got Rick Hansen. He wheeled around the entire world and is synonymous with the term "Man in Motion".

	nscox:	Feb 19th, 2012 at 01:23 GMT		1 point
	Same here. The results have been rather surprising to me. When I first made this quiz, I thought the top 5 would be Gretzky, Nash, Fox, Lemieux, St. Pierre (in that order). I was wrong. I also didn't think the three baseball players would be as high as they are.

	@CNTower10: Dunno if that was a dig at pro wrestling not being a "sport", but the quiz is about athletes. There's no question that pro wrestlers are tremendous athletes.

	Fair enough, but wow that seems like such a disservice to the Great One. I think his last year on that team he had 8 goals (although it's not necessarily because of the team he was on, but still).

	gpap:	Feb 20th, 2012 at 15:36 GMT		1 point
	Yeah, as a Canadian they tend to make huge deal out of our non-hockey athletes. I never watch curling, and I got them all... only missed Perdita, totally forgot about her.

	Good quiz. Missed 12, 14 and 33.

	Only 40% recognized Terry Fox? A shame...

	Not the most flattering photo of Klassen. I had a small celebrity crush on her several Olympics ago, but I didn't recognize her here. Still a great quiz. I recognized Rochette and Felicien immediately, but couldn't come up with their names.

	I saw female speed skater & tried every variation of Catriona Lemay Doan I could think of.... it seems I had a case of short term memory loss there. Only missed Klassen & Nestor. I was thinking Grant Connell there.
