What is the all time best/most influential Canadian film?

[shack]

My favourite Canadian movie was "Dead Ringers", 1988, directed by David Cronenberg.

Creeeepy movie. Just watched it again a few weeks ago.

Problem is I suppose what exactly IS a Canadian movie?

The exact question that I had.

I am shocked, shocked I say that nobody mentioned any movies from the entire canon of Frank D'Angelo.

The exact question that I had.

People who ask this question have obviously never seen one, otherwise they wouldn't be asking. Perhaps they were not in the country during the 70s and 80s, the golden age of Canadian cinema.

People who make ridiculous assumptions must get used to being wrong in sooo many of their opinions.

So please enlighten us. In your expert opinion, what is the definition of a "Canadian" film. What criteria does a film need to meet to be called Canadian.
