I don't think Canada can produce a name as uniquely Canadian as the Finnish gold standard Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen

Let’s do this by region:

Québec - Pierre-Luc Dubois (this one requires a hyphen)

GTA - Darryl Sittler (has to be a Darryl)

West - Jarome Iginla (gotta have a native name in there since there really aren’t such things as Canadian or American surnames unless they’re native)

For that "native" first nations status : Jonathan Cheechoo
