You mean Denny Crane of Crane Poole and Schmidt?
Boston Legal is a hoot.
Far better than T.J. Hooker or Tek Wars. Might be his finest work ever although he is a supporting player.

Nelly Furtado is Luso-Canadian :P

Tom Cochrane is Canadian? Then you are forgiven for Celine Dion! :D

P.S.: I forgot... One of my favourite singers is from Canada... :) Lorenna Mckenneth (I thinkk this is the way you write it...   :love:)

HA ha ha, that is the list I used after I brain stormed a whole bunch of canadian actors/actresses and musicians to put movies or songs they produced or took part in beside their names so people could recognize them just in case they didn't with the name. I guess I could have posted the links but it was 3:00am in the morning when I did my list and I didn't think of it.  :-\  Thanks LARAGORN for posting them.

Zorbels seconds the yay canada
