Basketball. If you're in to that sort of thing.Big_Bad_Sad

Basketball was invented in Holyoke massachuesettes. (can never spell that darn states name) It may have been turned into a legit sport there but Canada shouldn't get credit for Basketball in general

This company has given Canada a great deal of positive exposure. They have worldwide familiarity and appeal.

Let's add to that Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

Tegan and Sara are awesome. For those living in the Greater Toronto Area 102.1 the edge is one of Canadas greatest contributions as well.

Did anyone say Pam Anderson, Neve Campbell, Neil Young, or William Shatner yet?

Anyways as I said before, the band Rush is Canada's crowning achievement.

Canada has their moments ....but their achievements pale in comparison with the U.S. Then again, Canada doesn't have nearly as many people.

We've done tons. I really don't get the Canada insults...especially when they're not even what we should be getting insulted for. Say what you will about Nickelback but leave the rest of us alone! Seriously though we have some of the best musicians around.
