What an interesting question Jay. I like the way you organized by decade.

Lots of great movies have been made in Canada: Indian movies, Chinese movies, French movies. Hollywood movies. ha ha. That's Canada.

For personal reasons, my favourite Canadian Hollywood movie is "Meatballs," winner of several Canadian Oscars (the Genis) in 1979.

A non-profit organization in Canada called Reel Canada exists for the sole purpose of teaching Canadian culture (whatever that is) to high school students. They have wonderful Canadian film festivals in high schools across the country. Of course they must exclude "adult" movies in order not to get in trouble with parent Here's their list of Canadian films.
