i am certain the last two are popular outside of canada

a few americans really only know him for his remix of Sufjan Stevens' "You Are the Blood" (which is also a castanets cover) but here he is i like him (he's a white rapper ok with sounding white):

I know the drummer for Triumph, Gil Moore, because his daughter went to the summer camp that I used to work at.

Plus, not all of those artists are necessarily bad though, and a few of them were actually popular outside Canada.

They may have expanded a little more now but i'm going to go with Marianas Trench.

Not a very good band but somehow each of their singles hits the radio here in good ol' Alberta.
