Oh man, is Celine Dion really what comes to so many people’s minds when they think of Canadian musicians? ☹

We’ve exported much better, really. We’re keeping the Tragically Hip though.

I decided not to Google any of these, since I think most folks won’t, so I won’t accidentally get contaminated with the “right” answers.  
7,8: I might be off on the spelling of the politician, but I remember there was a PM some years back with (almost) the same name as the dish.

#4: A couple of friends and I went skiing in Quebec a couple of years ago, and there seemed to be a whole TV channel dedicated to curling. For some crazy reason we ended up watching it for a while, and we found it quite amusing. The best part is when the curler slides along with the stone while making strange grunting noises. Best thing on television.

11. Not really a feud question since there is only one correct answer.

12. This may not be official but it’s certainly the correct answer.

13. Jim Carrey or Pamela Anderson may be better answers, but Celine is the most annoying and memorable. I’ll be chafed if it ends up being Alex Trebek or Raymond Burr.

14. Probably the Habs or the Leafs will get more votes. Too many choices for us sports fans.

15. Perhaps a bit overly involved answer. Sorry, eh.
