    There's so many!

    I'd go with Dr. John Callaghan, who performed the first open heart surgery in Canada: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Callaghan

    There are plenty of others- I'm not 100% sure if all their achievements are in Canada, but you can go through them and do that part of the work yourself.

    Dr. James Till

    Dr. John Dick

    Dr. Wilder Penfield

    Dr. David Sackett

    Dr. Wilfred Bigelow

    Dr. Irene Ayako Uchida

    Dr. Tirone E. David

    Dr. Tommy Douglas

    Dr. A. Ross Tilley

    Dr. John Cameron Bell

    Dr. Carl Goresky

    Dr. Andras Nagy

    Dr. Tak Wah Mak
