Who is the Worst Canadian in History?

Discussion in 'Anything goes' started by Perry White, May 3, 2007.

  1. I vote for Chester Authur, U.S. President.

    Born in Canada, but renounced his Maple leaf heritage in favor of the good old US of A.

    Or does that make him the the best Canadian ever?

    Okay, I am shocked that there is a vote for Pierre Trudeau :eek:
    Brian Mulroney deserves the title far more than Trudeau because of the Free Trade Agreement and the introduction of GST. :(
    Paul Bernardo, Clifford Olson, Pickton deserve t the title as well as Eagleson.

    I know there is somebody else, I have to think about this more :-\

    BUZZZZZZ! Unless you consider Vermont a part of Canada. (Many knuckledraggers do.)

    Until they pass the Arnold Amendment, U.S. presidents have always had to be born on native U.S. soil.

    (How that explains the first 8 presidents born before independence is a head-scratcher, however.)

    And FWIW, I vote for Homolka.

    Obviously, a man who doesn't remember the white names on the white jerseys/blue names on the blue jerseys from the late 70s...

    When my brother was 5, he always saw Anne Murray commericals while watching cartoons.

    One day he turns to our mom and says, "We should get an Anne Murray CD." That dork walked around singing the portions of her songs he heard on TV.

    Therefore, I'm always amussed when I hear/see the name Anne Murray.

    I totally disagree with the selection of Anne Murray. Even though I am not a great fan of her music, she is orginally from my neck of the woods and has been a fantastic ambassador for my province.
     
  10. Actually, there is considerable speculation that Arthur was actually born in Canada. Some modern historians tend to agree.

    This guy was the prime nemesis of Dudley Do-Right and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

    Was Dick Dastardly Canadian, too?
