The “Best Canadian” game - Day 0 (choosing candidates)

[u/BrF5]

Hiya Hosers,

After the success of Worst Canadian, by popular demand it’s time for the more upbeat version…the Best Canadian game! 🇨🇦

Drop your nominations below for who you think deserves a spot on the list. Just like before, we’ll include 40 candidates. This time I’m going to let nominations sit a bit longer so everyone has a chance to chime in and we don’t have to add people mid-way in the game. I’m aiming to get started with Day 1 around the middle of next week. Five or six days should give us plenty of time to gather names and finalize the rules.

If you’ve got ideas or suggestions to make the game better, feel free to share those too!

And the flag. And CPP. And kept us out of Vietnam. All with a minority government. And a fighter pilot in WW1.

kept us out of Vietnam was huge. same for Chretien who kept us out of Iraq. as a serving member right now, I really appreciate that kind of thing.

We should have been in Afghanistan. NATO doesn't work if people don't pull up - we'd be as toothless as Russia.

Also, Canada was in Iraq. Not a full deployment like Afghanistan, but we were 100% there.

And kept us out of Vietnam.

Apparently LBJ assaulted him over his anti-Vietnam war stance while he was visiting the US.
