  1. Stanford Fleming did an amazing number of things, including introducing Canadian postage stamps, working to bring about the cross-Canada railway entity, introducing Universal Standard Time and a host of others. Then there was Alexander Graham Bell, who developed a prototype of the telephone, the diving bell, and a large number of other inventions.

    There are any number of notable Canadians, but do you mean Canadians who gained fame during the ten year period you have specified, or who were born then?
