Canada Day and Fathers of Confederation

Question

When the Connection Finder featured American founders, I wondered if I have a better connection to Canada's Fathers of Confederation. I do! I went to the Category: Fathers of Confederation and from there found that I am 11 degrees from Robert Wilmot and 12 degrees from Robert Dickey, Andrew Macdonald and Oliver Mowat. 5 more are 13 degrees from me.

Only Thomas McGee in unconnected.

How about that, Canadians. Who ar you connected with?
