Canada's Walk of Fame

Canada's Walk of Fame (French: Allée des célébrités canadiennes) acknowledges the achievements, accomplishments, and successes of amazing Canadians. It consists of a series of stars in front of Roy Thomson Hall, The Princess of Wales Theatre, and The Royal Alexandra Theatre on King Street and Simcoe Street in Toronto, Ontario. Created in 1998, it includes athletes, coaches and other sports figures; actors, directors, writer and producers of movies, television and stage; singers, songwriters and musicians; playwrights; authors; comedians; even cartoonists and supermodels.

Those without a Star

There have really been no true conversies about who has or hasn't been inducted. Some feel that there should be less producers on the walk of fame, because although they are very successful, they are not as famous as many of those who are not inducted. Although the various producers and directors are very successful, they make the walk of fame seem more like a Walk of Success.

There are several campaigns to give certain celebrities stars on the walk of fame. Among those that many would like to see get their own stars: Television legend James Doohan (Better known as Scotty from Star Trek); long time ABC news anchor Peter Jennings; legendary wrestling personality and trainer Stu Hart as well as his sons Bret Hart and Owen Hart; Canadian sports icons such as hockey players Guy Lafleur, Phil Esposito, Patrick Roy, Frank Mahovlich, baseball player Larry Walker, and Olympic gold medalist Donovan Bailey; and finally legendary musical groups such as The Band, Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) and Blue Rodeo or legendary jazz musician Oscar Peterson. Some would also like to see BTO member Randy Bachman get an individual star (he is currently inducted, but as a member of The Guess Who). People also want High Fashion Supermodels inducted onto The Walk of Fame. These Top Models include Heather Marks, Jessica Stam,
