10 actors you never knew were Canadian
Time to break out the maple syrup and those ‘Due South’ boxsets… it’s Canada Day! Rather than drag up any more lazy stereotypes however, we’ll celebrate by paying tribute to the country’s most underrated exports – their commonwealth of acting talent. Who knew Canada was such a movie star hotspot? Not us, we thought these guys were all American too…
Ryan Reynolds
Famous for: ‘The Green Lantern’, ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’
Hometown: Vancouver
This is how Canadian our Ryan is: his dad was a mounty! Not only that, he was once married to one of the few stars everyone actually knows is from Canada – Alanis Morissette. Even though they’ve since split, Reynolds is still proud of his roots."I love Canada,” he said in an interview. “It makes a nice hat for America.”
