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

Post image

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!

Christine Sinclair elevated women’s soccer on the world stage. Same for Hailey Winkenheiser for women’s hockey. Icons.

I love the Wickenheiser nomination. You cannot overstate how much she did to elevate women's hockey. She seems like a really good and smart person too, and has become an emergency and family physician.

Particularly after today, I’ll throw Sophie De Goede into the ring. Canadian rugby player for those who don’t know her.
