^Not really. Like most places, if you ask the average person if the know a certain model, the answer is usualy no, even if that model came from their hometown. I have noticed that Canadian entertainment shows are very supportive of homegrown talent and it's not surprising to see a model profiled on them. Heather Marks and Daria Werbowy have had similar interviews and there's a video that E Talk daily did about Mode Models a few months back as well.
