The most famous person from your town?

Jim Pattison, 6th richest man in Canada, was born in Saskatoon, but has been living in West Vancouver for probably the last 40-50 years, so probably him. Lots of other fairly famous people live here or have homes here, but I definitely wouldn't say they are from here. Paul Kariya grew up in North Vancouver, on the other side of the river.
