Do you agree with this list of "Top 20 Magician celebrities in Canada"?

The Celeb Networth site has a list of their "Top 20 Magician celebrities in Canada." 

It's an interesting list for a number of reasons:

  • The top two spots on the list are held by James Randi.
  • That is not a photo of the Ryan Joyce we know.
  • The list ends at number 17.

 

To be fair, we never progressed the initiative of naming the the top 10 Canadian magicians of all time.  (Would that list of nominations look very different now that it's almost 3 years later?)
