There are definitely Canadians in the N172 set; not sure if there is anything older.

Cheers,

Other Canucks in the set;

Tip O'Neill
George Wood
Pete Wood
Arthur Irwin
John Irwin
Pop Smith

*I think I counted 54 Canadians who played at least one game from 1880-1900. Like Richard noted, Baseball-Reference has a full list of all Canadians who have made a big league appearance.

I found this link by just typing in "List of all CDN's who played in the major leagues"
It is 1/2 the way down and it's since 1871, which shows 245 CDN's played.
Just click on their names to find info about them.
