Partner Interviews Tanner Punt I like how safe Canada is compared to other countries. My favourite Canadian is Wayne Gretzky because he is the best hockey player to ever live. Levi Shram I like how Canada is really safe and it is just so great to be Canadian because the weather is great and the crime rate is very low. My favourite Canadian is Alex Burrows. He is a French Canadian but that still counts. He is a really great hockey player and could very well be the best player on the Canucks.
