A couple aren't too terrible (I won't say which to spare you an aneurysm), but the rest positively are.

Probably the closest/best would be Snowbird.

Was painful to scroll past the first two. This type of "casting" really undermines the creator's vision.

Jay Baruchel? That's an odd one. He did live in Quebec growing up. SO that's something. 

I don't know if you could really do a passable Alpha Flight in the MCU. Whatever distinctiveness the team has/had would likely be neutered. Not that it's likely they'll get around to them any time soon.

My fear is that an Alpha Flight movie would basically be Doug and Bob as superheroes.

Like that weird Super Team Canada show this year. They knew who they were partially parodying, too:

Well...at least the cast would be pretty. Wouldn't that be
the most important thing? ;)
