Re: US's favorite 10 Canadians
Mike Myers is the most Canadian of any actor out there. He seems to be the only one who openly and proudly acknowledges his Scarborough roots and makes a point of trying to integrate those roots into the roles he plays.
The rest... you would think they're just Americans who were born in Canada.

They probably don't show up on the first page when you google "Canadian actor".
I doubt any American could otherwise name anyone they would know is Canadian. |

I was not aware of her profession but simply attracted to the pinup images a fellow poster used to share on a thread on another forum titled "Favorite Canadian Babes"... |

It does. Someone suggested Pamela lee Anderson. Besides the twin peaks and a penchant for marrying and divorcing I cannot fathom her claim to fame.  |

Come on man after all you are Capt James T Kirk. (youtube clip) Disgusted? Lighten up...it was funny, and quite obviously set up. I was speaking tongue in cheek. You think I care about a Vulcan salute.

Yeah, I thought it was hilarious. Someone obviously didn't take Shatner's advice on SNL back in '86.

Yet another Canadian icon deserving of mention is Michael J. Fox. If Phil Hartman deserves posthumous mention then Fox easily should be worthy as well... |

I don't think he is on anyones favorite list. Tricia Helfer on the other hand should be on the list. |
