CBC is looking for us, the public, to vote for The Greatest Canadian. They’ve given lots of examples of great Canadians, but all are either artists, politicians, sports stars or people who have gained celebrity and noteriety through other means.
There are no average shmoes in the running. That is why I am offering to be the sacrificial lamb for you folks. I am a ‘Great Canadian’ example of mediocrity and banality. What more could you ask for? I’ll take one for the team. You can nominate me, Mike Browne, with a write in vote by filling in the form on this page if you like.
Or you could browse the historically boring list of regulars like Laura Secord, Louis Riel, Emily Carr and choose one of them with the other sheep.
Paul Anka? Interesting singer but come on…
I’m not sure we’ll find the ‘Greatest Canadian’ at all this way. It will be interesting to see who gets chosen.
Why is no one laughing? *cricket sound* (80kb Wav)
