Next time, please, do mention which number a particular book has in the Listopia. Thanks :-)
John Irving isn't Canadian (A Prayer for Owen Meany is on here).Lucky Man is still on here.
Robert Munsch is Canadian, but is pretty much the only picture book on here. Do you want to have picture books?

As the title/description of this Listopia clearly reads "Canadian Fiction", the books by Arundhati Roy (Indian) and Peter Robinson (British) have been removed.
Added some James A. Houston. Also some other novels with Canadian settings. Appreciated seeing Farley Mowat books on list, although they are more biographical than fiction.
Removed the following non-fiction books: Onstage, Offstage by Michael Bublé; The Long Hello: The Other Side of Alzheimer's by Cathie Borrie; Lucky Man: A Memoir by Michael J. Fox; and The Man Who Forgot How to Read by Howard Engel.
The following title is on the list. Bellow: A Biography
by James Atlas
Unless this is a fictional biography, I assume this doesn't belong on the list.
I added Nobody's Son, by Sean Stewart, but wasn't entirely sure it should count; Stewart was born in the U.S., but now lives in Canada, has Canadian citizenship, the book was published in Canada first, and won Canada's major fantasy award.Added some titles by Charles de Lint too; he was born in the Netherlands, but since he moved to Canada before he was a year old I figured he counted. :)
