ITG's Canadiana set

[Kehfee]

Dr. Price announced on his blog that ITG is working on a non-sport release titled Canadiana and he mentioned a few names that were signing. Made me think which Canadians I'd like to own an autograph card of and the following game to mind.

Tommy Douglas (obviously a cut auto)
Pierre Trudeau (another cut auto)
Doug Coupland (author of J-Pod, Microserfs etc)
Margaret Atwood (Too many classic books to list)
Rick Hanson

and one specifically for me. Jon Goldstein (CBC Radio guy. I love Livewire)

Who would you guys like to see in this set?

 

[numbern9ne]

Neil Young for sure

 

[The Great Zo]

Rush. Succeed where UD failed. For bonus points, find a cut auto of John Rutsey.

 

[numbern9ne]

How about a cut of Terry Fox

How about a cut of Terry Fox

I see he's had a session with Dave Thomas. I sure hope he's left room open for some Thomas/Rick Moranis dual autos. That would be awesome.

Sir John A. MacDonald auto would be pretty sweet. Most likely really tough to come by, though. Others would be J-A Bombardier, Alexander Graham Bell, Mackenzie King, Wilfrid Laurier, etc. would be cool.

Derek

 

[TurcoCollector3]

Neil Young for sure

I have never seen a post I agreed more with. Please do a Neil Young card and auto.

Also a Don Cherry/Ron Maclean dual auto would be cool, can't remember if UD ended up making on for Parkhurst or something

 

[anuske9]

Justin Bieber.

 

[FrozenInferno]

Alexander Bilodeau

 

[JayKayZee]

I'm thinking more Canadian wrestlers, I saw Trish Stratus' name already. I'd love to see cuts from some who have passed (Stu Hart, "Killer" Kowalski, Billy Red Lyons, Dino Bravo). Also, one of my favorite tag-teams of all time - Jacques and Raymond - The Fabulous Rougeaus Brothers, from Montreal...

I'd even settle on Rene Goulet....

Thanks for the input, as always you have laid out the challenge and I will do my very best to fulfill it. Some of these names are going to be very difficult, but I surely will give it my "Canadian Best".

Keep them coming.

Brian Price

 

[allstarcollectors]

Some of the famous comedians. Jim Carrey, Michael J. Fox, John Candy, Martin Short, etc.

 

[Triple B]

Dual and triple autograph cards featuring folks like Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis (Bob and Doug Mackenzie), Rush (Geddy Lee, Neil Peart and Alex Lifeson) would be VERY cool.

I'd trip out over singers like Bryan Adams, Corey Hart, Mike Reno (Loverboy) and Myles Goodwyn (April Wine).

 

[tmlfan67]

How about a Gord Downie/Bill Barilko dual auto? Kudos if you could find a Dr Henry Hudson....

 

[habsheaven]

I think you would have to include some of our leading ladies:

Anne Murray
Celine Dion
Shania Twain
Alanis Morrisette
Avril Lavigne
Sarah MacLachlan
Joanie Mitchell
Buffy Saint Marie

 

[Kehfee]

Mackenzie Brothers made me think of some more.

John Candy Cut auto
Kids in the Hall Quad
K.D. Lang and Leonard Cohen

Get some Michelle Jean action in there.

 

[carmichaelpt]

Alex Trebek?

Jim Ballsillie?

James Naismith?

Isn't Kim Cattrell Canadian? Pam Anderson?

Just a few names of people that came to mind that I didn't see.

Please for the love of god, no Nickleback.

Seriously.

PS - I'm okay with The Hip.

 

[pharmd30usp]

Shatner would help Quincy sleep better at night.

 

[goldendogs11]

Lloyd Robertson!
