Some may have seen this story on CBC.
There's a campaign going to get possibly the most famous on-screen grandma in Hollywood, Frances Bay, onto Canada's walk of fame.
I didn't know her by name, but if you watch TV or movies you'll probably know who she is.. whether its from Seinfeld, Happy Days, Happy Gilmore or many others.
What I also didn't know is that she is a Western Manitoban born in Dauphin.
Here's her wikipedia entry:

The petition to get her onto the walk of fame is over 3200 signatures now and can get seen at
