Famous Canadians by Picture

I'd no idea who Alex Trebek was, after Googling him, as a Brit, my chances of getting him are all but nil.

The others I knew, albeit one or two I couldn't remember or didn't recognise.

I recognise the name and know he is somehow connected to Jeopardy from some sketches I once saw. But wouldn't recognise his face. That as a Finn.

I should explain to the folks at home who Norm MacDonald is and why he isn't on this quiz here you know.

He sadly lost that battle yesterday. RIP Alex.

Gretzky and Gosling look like they're flirting.

Oh my god, you're right

Seems the quizmaker is not really a Rush fan, what a shame. Geddy Lee is not less iconic than some others in the bottom lines...

I would never have recognised Gretzky, I just tried his name anyway cause I figured he had to be there.

I'm surprised he is so low because I thought he was so famous that even people who don't like sports would know him. I don't know anything about opera, but I'd recognize Pavarotti. Ditto poetry and Maya Angelou. Some people transcend their market and become famous to the average person. I thought the unquestioned best hockey player of all-time would fit the bill, but I guess hockey is much less popular than I thought.

You didn't know Trudeau/Gretzky were Canadian? Yer gunna get yer passport revoked, bud.

Why does Neil Young look like Meatloaf in that picture.

We should add Bieber to this... Maybe replace him with Mike Myers? Or Dan Aykroyd? Steve Nash?

Leonard Cohen? Joni Mitchell?

I’ve only heard of 10 of them...

You did better than me - I've only heard of 5 of them, three of whom I guessed. I was expecting Ben Johnson - though I suppose that he's infamous rather than famous.

He's pretty much the mascot/punching bag that represents everything people loathe about modern pop culture, so he inspires a lot of ill will in people. I agree it's probably overkill, but...well, he's awful. At least he has some discernible talent though, however marginal. The Kardashians, on the other hand...

@PHG1960 How and to whom?

Don't know who that is. Sorry about that.

Sweet quiz, eh?

Wouldn't recognize Captain James Tiberius Kirk in that picture if my life depended on it.

Only got 15, sadly. That angle was weird for Gretzky and I couldn't place him, ditto Bryan Adams. Neil Young, though, is from about 15 minutes away from where I live now!

Hate me, neighbors to the north, but I'll say it - 90% of you live within 50 miles of the good ole US of A (we don't do metric down here - it's French). You guys look like us, and nearly sound like us. Like a really Fargo version of us, but whatever. You can leave Quebec behind, but really, what is the point of remaining subjects the Queen? Just either move down here already or just annex yourselves to the nearest state. OK, fire away.

Roast us all you want, the most hate you'll get is a mild "sorry"

Alphonso Davies is where?

Justin Bieber and Shania Twain but no Leonard Cohen or Joni Mitchell??

I didn't know Rogen was Canadian. Fox and Carey look different as they age.

Dwayne Johnson has nothing to do with Canada. Bret Hart would be a good addition.

How is Wayne Gretzky so low guessed????

Jacques Villeneuve should have been on this quiz

Just a suggestion, really

Nvm, just found quiz #4

lord save me, i only got justin bieber, drake, jim carrey, and ryan reynolds

How is "The Great One" the least recognized in this quiz? Who is taking this quiz?

CÉLINE ET LA POUTINE C'EST QUÉBÉCOIS, VIVE LE QUÉBEC LIBRE!! ⚜️

There's got to be a better picture for Avril Lavigne that could be used. I got that one right, but it was a lucky guess because that photo is terrible.
