Loved the Best Laid Plans and the Anne series. I’m surprised there are no Screech Owl books on your list- a great Canadian read too!

I do not have a favourite Canadian novel, but I am now reading detective novels of Louise Penny and enjoying them. They are very atmospheric.

I believe that series is Canadian! I read the first novel and I think it was set in Quebec.

My favorite Canadians seem to be transplants from different countries, Freya Barker was originally from Scandinavia and then that precious American – Eliza Gordon – her Must Love Otters was hilarious!
