Jeannie Cooper ( Katherine ) had dual citizenship and was proud to return to Canada to vote in federal elections. I'm pretty sure she voted Liberal
but I'm open to corrections.
I thought Jason Thompson was from Edmonton Alberta.

JT worked in Edmonton as a waiter, but he was born in a suburb just outside of Edmonton.
Nathan Fillion was born in Edmonton. He went to the same middle school as me but at a different time.

And Michael J. Fox was also born in Edmonton.

I remember seeing Jeanne Cooper somewhere outside of Y&R. I don't think I met her in person. It might've been when she accepted an award on TV. She talked a lot about her son Corbin Bernsen. She was really proud of him.

There are more Canadians in Hollywood than there are in Canada! Many of our top movie stars are also from Canada.

Not Y&R related, but the creator of DAYS Ted Corday was from Winnipeg... and both Ted Corday and Donnelly Rhodes were from my hometown. Donnelly Rhodes passed away in hospice care in Victoria, British Columbia. And I used to watch Tonya Lee Williams on the show The Polka-Dot-Door before she came to Y&R.

I thought Tyler Johnson was American. His bio said he was born in Washington DC and grew up in Maryland.
Tyler Johnston from Letterkenney is Canadian. It's Johnston with a T.
