Canada's Brother Andre to be canonized at the Vatican

This is a very big deal:

CTV.ca News Staff
Montreal's Brother Andre will become a saint on Sunday in a ceremony at the Vatican to be presided over by Pope Benedict XVI.

Brother Andre, who is credited with numerous miraculous healings before his death in 1937, will be canonized along with five others at 10 a.m. local time.

Is he the first Canadian saint? I suspect so (although, I am Catholic and should probably know that)
