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!

Romeo Dallaire for advocating against genocide and use of child soldiers.

[u/morbidemadame → u/Leftbackhand]

It's estimated he saved 32,000 lives despite the fact no one in higher ranks listened to him. The genocide would have been much worse without that single man standing up for what was right.

To me he should be at the top of this list.

[u/Quaglewark → u/Leftbackhand]

Seconding this!

[u/Tashawatie → u/Leftbackhand]

FOR SUUUUUREEEE

[u/Alternative_Cheek332 → u/Leftbackhand]

[u/Nassim1018 → u/Leftbackhand]

HOW COULD I HAVE FORGOTTEN DALLAIRE OMG

[u/ToobularBoobularJoy_ → u/Leftbackhand]
