Sixtoo, Amon Tobin and Buck 65 would be a few of my favourite Canadian acts.

so glad other people are aware of these names... peanuts and corn is my favourite label ever... fucking insane amount of amazing material... mcenroe is the best beat-maker out there... so many layers to a lot of his tracks, especially on the later p&c releases... wish he would drop something new... been tooo long! www.peanutsandcorn.com
and props to others who dropped links. I'm gonna try and keep this thread going for as long as possible.

Canadian hip-hop sucks dick! And I'm Canadian! Grime and American hip-hop are waaaay better, by leaps and bounds. Like choclair, kardinal offishall, classified? That's the best Canada has? Give me a break...

All about Buck 65. I rather love canadian hip-hop, some pretty fine stuff comes from there.
Def 3 & Factor is probably my favourite new(ish) release, also gotta show love for Kid Koala, K-os, Josh Martinez, Sweatshop Union, D-sisive.
Also, Abdominal. Best flow and lyrics in the game. His breath control is fucking rediculous.
Last verse is all in one breath, 16 bars

Only Buck 65 albums I liked and would even consider hip-hop are vertex and language arts, although to be fair there is probably a lot of early stuff I haven't heard.
Anyone remember this one:
