The verdict

Born and raised in Vancouver, she studied acting at McGill in Montreal before heading to New York's Neighborhood Playhouse. Has built a stellar career in Hollywood playing everything from a resourceful programmer in Halt and Catch Fire to a badass warrior in Terminator, but Canada's still proud to claim her as one of ours.
