10 PEOPLE THAT CANADA TAKES CREDIT FOR

There are many folks hailing from Canada that we're happy to pass off to the rest of the world. People like Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger, Rob Ford (if only we could get him to leave), Pamela Anderson, Michael Cera (the jury is still out on this one), Robin Thicke and a few more that we would care to forget about sooner rather than later. There are a select few Canucks that make it to the top and cause us to shout "THEY'RE FROM CANADA!" and these are a few of them.

1. Nathan Fillion

There are few Canadians that are as charming and handsome as Nathan Fillion who kicked his career off in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly and now stars in Castle alongside the gorgeous Stana Katic (who's also Canadian, by the way). We're definitely on board with his name being a part of Canada's Walk of Fame (yes that exists). Plus his mom is named Cookie... how great is that?!

2. Michael J. Fox

Umm hello, Back to the Future? Other stuff! More other stuff! OH! The Frighteners. Yep, that was good. Spin City! Who remembers that 90s gem? TEEN WOLF. Oh, the things that Michael J. Fox has given us.

3. Evangeline Lilly

It's pretty blasphemous for me to state that I didn't like Lost BUT I really loved Evangeline Lilly in it. Too bad she had to be a part of those Hobbit movies. We mostly forgive you, Evangeline.

4. Cobie Smulders

There would be something seriously wrong with this list if we didn't include Robin Sparkles here. I mean, she practically IS Canada. Cobie Smulders is gorgeous, funny and taking over Hollywood between How I Met Your Mother and now her role as Maria Hill in the Marvel Avengers franchise. What's next?

5. Stephen and Robbie Amell

We'll totally forgive that you're LA Kings fans, boys. For now... but only because you're so freaking great in Arrow. You'd better keep it up.

6. Rachel McAdams

Rachel, we love you. We do, but you're killing us. When are you going to get back together with Ryan Gosling aka your ONE TRUE LOVE? We know... probably never BUT we can still hold on to hope and in the meantime we'll watch you in anything and everything.

7. Seth Rogen

The one, the only, the very funny Seth Rogen. What more is there to say? You know this guy from things. He's great! And Canadian.

8. Tatiana Maslany

Have you watched Orphan Black yet? Because if you haven't, get out of here RIGHT NOW and go watch it. It is SO FREAKING GOOD and if you don't dig the show, at the very least your jaw will be on the floor from watching the amazing performance that Maslany puts on. Like whoa. This girl can act. She's Canadian and we're keeping her.

9. Catherine O'Hara

Hi yes? Catherine O'Hara? This is Canada calling. Yes, all of us. Collectively as a country, we want to thank you for Home Alone, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, SCTV, and a billion other things. You're a goddamn national treasure.

10. Jay Baruchel

I had to make a choice here between some really awesome Canadians, but ultimately I decided that Jay Baruchel deserved this spot. How To Train Your Dragon, Goon (OMG Goon), Are You Afraid Of The Dark?, This Is The End, Fanboys and Knocked Up. We salute you with maple syrup, Jay.
