Well Known People Who Happen to be Canadian is a website created and maintained by John Terning, a theoretical particle physicist in the T8 group at Los Alamos National Laboratory, California U.S.A. who also happens to be a Canadian.

Here’s a website that offers its information simply and succinctly in two columns under a Canadian flag in the following categories: Actors, Actresses, Artists, Astronauts, Athletes, Authors, Business, Comedians, Directors/Producers, Entertainers, Journalists, Miscellaneous, More, Musicians, Scientists, and Search.  There are no annoying banner ads, no pop up ads, no ads at all.  This is one site that comes through with the facts, nothing but the facts about Canadians.

Click on the Actors, Actresses and More Actors and More Actresses links to view more than 150 Canadians who’ve achieved fame and fortune in films, television, radio and stage. Here you can find out about the Canadian actor who plays a lead role in “JAG”, the Canadian who was the original voice of  Spiderman, the Canadian connections to “Saturday Night Live” and the “Star Trek” series and other well known and less known facts about Canadian actors and actresses.

Go over to the Authors and More Authors links and read about the many Canadians who are famous for their writing.  Among the 50 authors included here are Margaret Atwood, Saul Bellow, Pierre Berton, Leonard Cohen, Douglas Coupland, Robertson Davies, John Kenneth Galbraith, William Gibson, W.P. Kinsella, Margaret Laurence, John McCrae, Marshall McLuhan and others.

When it comes to music, business, journalism and athletics, Canadians have made incredible contributions.  Read about the many Canadian achievements in each of their respective categories.

What impressed me the most about this site was learning about the numerous Canadian scientists who have received Nobel prizes in physics, chemistry, medicine and economics. Click on the Scientists link and read all about them.
