    Greatest (Canadian) individual performance? Donovan Bailey, Chuvalo going the distance against vs. Ali, Mike Weir winning the Masters? Pardon me if I've forgotten something.

    Single game/event you mean?

    Ronnie Stewart set the all-time pro football single game rushing record (287 yards) vs. the Als (at the Autostade i think?) in the 60s.

    Darryl Sittler with a 10 point game for the Leafs.

    Individual, as in on their own - no team.

    Ok then; and Chuvalo going the distance vs. Ali was a great accomplishment, but Lennox Lewis winning the World Heavyweight Championship (and defending it numerous times) I think could easily be considered a much greater feat - but Lewis was a Jamaican born Canadian, so maybe does not count or gets an asterisk here ? Figure skating golds or World Championships (by male or female) should be ranked up there too IMO.

    Lennox Lewis became a Brit by the time he won the World Heavyweight Championship. Complete with accent and all!
    Cameron Dukes + Dan Adeboboye + Kevin Mital + David Ungerer + Damonte Coxie + DaVaris Daniels + Dejon Brissett = Unstoppable Force
