More on favo(U)rite Canadians
We'd like to get busy between periods of Hockey Night in Canada, and we pick Pierre Trudeau as our top Canadia
"A national consensus isn't so easily reached on the question of our favourite Canadian singer or group.
Celine Dion and Shania Twain tie for top spot with 11 per cent each. (Celine was the choice of 19 per cent in her home
province, but only six per cent of men in Quebec would want to be exiled on a desert island with the brittle songbird.)
Anne Murray scores big in Saskatchewan, Gordon Lightfoot still rocks the Atlantic provinces. But icons like Joni Mitchell,
Neil Young and Leonard Cohen didn't even make the list. Neither did anyone whose music might be unfamiliar to the average
baby boomer"
