The Greatest Canadian

Who is the Greatest Canadian in your books? Apparently I am helping my younger brother write a paper on Alexander Graham Bell for his grade 10 history class.

Here is the assignment for perusal:

The purpose of this assignment is for each student to make their own selection as to "Who is the greatest Canadian of all time?" Students may use any of the top ten from the CBC poll or may choose any Canadian figure that they feel is worthy of this title. They will research their selection and produce a 1000 word essay on their choice for Greatest Canadian. This essay should be more than a simple biography of the person. It should be an opinion paper, written in their own words, not copied from a biography, supported by facts, and outlining three qualities and achievements of the individual to prove that indeed their selection deserves the title as the Greatest Canadian.

Somehow I believe that my participation in this paper writing will be more than just proof-reading...
