The verdict
Born in Vancouver to a Canadian father and an American mother, Joshua Jackson grew up between Vancouver and the United States before becoming Pacey Witter on Dawson's Creek and Peter Bishop on Fringe. He has always identified as Canadian and continues to hold citizenship. Pacey was the best character, and he was from Vancouver. Case closed.
