    It seems that The Beaver magazine was unwilling to announce an “obscure punk rocker” as number one in the contest. I concur with the request for a recount.

    ya, i was surprised at the news coverage of this. i saw in the Montreal Gazette and i just found it here

    I am the worst canadian.

  • Comment by Jon UK on August 2nd, 2007 at 5:46 am:

    Hahaha, awesome. Canadaaaaaa.

  • Comment by dumdiddee on August 2nd, 2007 at 10:02 am:

    Surprising outcome. I thought first place would have been a toss up between either Hannah or Paul & Karla Bernardo … :-)

  • Comment by Marc on August 2nd, 2007 at 11:11 am:

    I would’ve voted more if I had known it would’ve been such a tight margin. I think I voted only twice..

    It’s actually pretty possible they didn’t want Chris to take first, as he’s not as publicly popular as Trudeau. In that case, what would a recount do?

    Beaver Magazine I’ll get you next timeeeeeeeeeee!!

  • Comment by Kyle on August 2nd, 2007 at 9:05 pm:

    If it makes you feel better, seeing

    ‘1. Pierre Trudeau
    2. Chris Hannah
    3. Dr. Henry Morgentaler’

    in the local newspaper made me smile and laugh to myself.

    Had the Beaver done its research, it would have referred to you as an ‘obscure progressive thrasher,’ and I would have laughed much harder

  • Comment by mikea on August 3rd, 2007 at 7:21 am:

    I guess this is the appropriate occasion for all of us to spare a sympathetic thought for Mrs & M. Hannah, whom have certainly spent the last 20 years wondering what went wrong with little Chrissy, and whom, once again, can’t do anything but wonder “why?”.
    Beware kids, to be a parent is a necessarily selfless job. Hehe.

  • Comment by dumdiddee on August 3rd, 2007 at 10:09 am:

    Hahaha! i never thought about how his parents would take the news. Were they like “oi vey!” or “‘atta boy!”?

    A diehard radical anarchist son with a military commissioned dad … surely every psychoanalysists dream.

    Beaver magazine?!? Who buys this shit? HBC employees and Europeans?

    Chris: #2 in the beaver, #1 in our hearts! ;P

  • Comment by gety on August 3rd, 2007 at 10:09 pm:

    Chris is no more an obscure punk rocker than the beaver is an obscure rag. Hopefully Glen Lambert can take solace in the fact that Chris is more hated than EVEN he. All this worst canadian stuff adds yet another layer of sexy veneer and another mysterious plum of smoke round chris’s chissled mid 30-something leathery face. on another note. Anyway I’m sure TMZ.com will have indepth coverage on this waning starlette. Hope he parley’s his new found worse-ness into charthartic re-inventing of himself.

    what am I doing with my time? fuck.

    Viva La Hannah

  • Comment by Tony Uk on August 6th, 2007 at 7:24 am:

    Was Bryan Adams in the running?

    “Now now, the Canadian government has apologised for Bryan Adams on several occasions…”

  • Comment by caĆ­tlin on August 6th, 2007 at 5:12 pm:

    I’d like to point out that this is the first time anyone of irish descent has topped any opinion poll, positive or negative, outside of the motherland. His native brothers appreciate the true significance. That, and french keyboards suck.

  • Comment by DickShit on August 7th, 2007 at 12:53 am:

    I shit my pants when my mom asked me if I had heard of your wretched placing.

    Second place is first loser.

    p.s Some interesting evening viewing: http://video.google....search&plindex=0

    No Fear!

  • Comment by Tony Uk on August 9th, 2007 at 8:25 am:

    Yeh, thats a thought, surely coming second actually makes you the worst by default, your such a loser Canadian you can’t even win the poll, and come a pathetic second in the only thing you ever had a chance at winning, no?
    You should host a “which celeb does the Rod look most like?” competition. I’ve said it before, but its Guy Pierce

    Bizarre that. Or is it in fact Val Kilmer?
