I was surprised to find out through this game that Donald Sutherland has never been nominated for an Oscar.

 Thanks, Hominidae! Time for me to check my list to pick a new person.

Google had some amusing results for "Canadian-born actors":

Isn't that William Shatner?
In Google's defense, it didn't seem very confident...

Will Arnett?

It's also funny how everyone figured out my character was probably Canadian by process of elimination.

Free guess: Elliot Page.
Whoo! That would be a spicy one. No pass on "male" or "actor nominated for Oscar" (since his nom came for Best Actress).
Well he is an actor, and he was nominated for an Oscar, so that's pretty unambiguous. A pass on "male" would be justifiable, but he is male by the gender identity definition.

I suppose our fault for asking imprecise questions. I should have asked "nominated for Best Actor or Best Supporting Actor".

Correct!

My hint was going to be along the lines of "If I was running this game five years ago, there is one question I would have answered differently."

Five questions to narrow it down. If it still seems hopeless a few questions from now, I have a hint up my sleeve.

Yes. Surprising that it took this long.
