Fun fact

His father Rocky Johnson was from Amherst, Nova Scotia — which means The Rock is technically from Nova Scotia once removed.

The verdict

His father, the legendary Rocky Johnson, was born in Amherst, Nova Scotia, making The Rock one-quarter Canadian by lineage. Was drafted by the Calgary Stampeders, but couldn't handle the CFL's bigger balls. He embraced his Canadian roots by getting his Canadian citizenship in 2009. What a beaut!
