Well at first I didn't think I met anyone but lets see:

Ian Millar - Canada's top show jumper (equestrian) who was on Team Canada when we won in Bejing.

Wayne Gretzky's dad, we were at a local pub and he was hosting an auction. My boyfriend sent me home to get a bunch of Gretzky cards and have him sign them all. I ended up having a business conversation about his scholarship fund and how I wished more people like him supported youth's education. :P

Arlene Dickinson - the dragon from the Canadian's Dragon's Den, she was at a conference where I was a contestant in a small business youth award.

Sassy Jordan - She was a judge when I went to Toronto for Canadian Idol. Also got to meet the rest of the panel too.

The coolest of all, he's not really a celeb, but a very important person is Arno Gego. I'm on his annual e-christmas card list I did a science project on show jumping in highschool and when I was researching this guy, who I later found out was one of the best course designers for Olympic show jumping in the WORLD, called me to help me with this project. I bought his book, and have spoken on the phone several times. He even invited me to attend his school in Aachen, but I couldn't afford tuition.
