After racking me brain, the closest I can come to a celebrity who lives in Canada is Rita MacNeil. She's World Famous in Cape Breton and she has a web presence!

one other think for you canada lovers. the queen dosent live here does she? so think about that even though she is the queen of canada and a lot of the world to she choses to lives in the UK. bet she even finds it boring and backwards here. bet canadian politicians have to go to london to get her to approve things as she wont come here. she should tell the government of canada to smarten up and let people enjoy themselves more and no more stupid rules. canada is like a wayword child needs some discipline. a few sappers here would soon samrten up these canuks.

Why are you so obsessed with celebrities? They are just people, who like everyone else in this world, shit, fart and probably leave a wet patch in the bed.

I have met more celebs than you have had hot dinners through the industries I have worked in and 99% of them are egotistical, prima donnas who wouldn't be able to make it in the real world without their lackeys around. I'm not knocking you for admiring them if that's what you want to do but get real.

Do you seriously think Posh and Jade Goody are attractive and talented? they just got lucky. Good for them but so what.

With regard to your posts, I've been reading through them and am seriously wondering why, as you hate Canada so much, you don't give up on the crappy beer you drink all the time and put the money towards a ticket back to the UK. I'm not having a go at you but you should try to be a bit more realistic about your future.

If you are wondering why people are 'insulting' you, take a look back at what you have written. Your first few posts were ranting and raving that all Canadians are ignorant because they didn't know a rich arab was buying a football club. Come on. There may well be some ignorant Canadians but there is no way every single person is ignorant.

There are ignorant morons in every single country in the world along with some highly intelligent, nice people too. You come across as very young and immature.

So having said all this why don't you just start again, if you're not a troll and tell us how old you are, what you do for a job (that you hate so much) and any other reason you don't like Canada apart from the place not having football and celebs, having crappy beer, too many rocks and mountains and dogs with human rights How about cutting down the booze and making a plan to get yourself home.

You also need to take your rose tinted glasses off about Manchester. I'm not from the North (I'm a softy southerner according to my Northern mates) but I've been to the town heaps of times, had some fantastic nights out there and think most of the people are great. However, I still saw the seedy side of the place and quite frankly there are some absolute crapholes just as there are in London and any other large city in the UK.

And despite your assertion that Posh loves Manchester I can't really see her househunting in Moss Side. Can you?

No, I'm not joking. I could have picked Stompin Tom or Buddy Wassisname. I suppose Celine Dion might count, she lives in Canada like Posh lives in Manchester.

see peeps on here still slagging manchester and clebs. must have little lives. clebs do alot of good in the world. they are always in the news doing good things for charity and poor people. correct that the real news in the uk no news of celebs here as newspapers are boring. even the page 3 girl in the so called sun here isnt even on page 3 how naff is that then? take a look at the real page 3 girls.

http://www.page3.com/girls_home.shtml

dont have that here because the uk sun is a real world class newspaper not like the canadian rubish. no proper news in the newspapers here there boring. thats why canadians dont no anthing important thats going on in the world and are ignorant about things.

We get newspapers like the Sun. There's the World Weekly News and, if you're up for a heavier read, The National Inquirer.
