No, Riker is from Alaska. It's been said several times throughout the run of the series.

Not since the Canadian domination of Alaska, th Continental US and Mexico in the grand invasion of 2053: http://www.standonguard.com/
It's just a matter of time until all your base are belong to us, eh?
Anyway, the confusion arises from the TNG episode "Lower Decks", where one of the junior officers tries to strike up a suck-up conversation mistakenly thinking that Riker was Canadian. Oops.

I think I enjoy the Roman Numeral X. I'll have to think about it a bit more.

I suppose we can rule out a cameo by Avery Brooks then. He wouldn't want to get typecast as appearing in movies with 'X' in the title. 8)

Ummm, *NEMESIS* bluh blaaah blaaaaah --- SILLY - wasn't FC supposedly going to be called Nemesis and then Insurrection... I think its a crew joke. Is Barclay going to be the Matron of honour!?!
Also, *FIRST* man!?! It's called the BEST man... hmmm.
Also, you would think that Picard would be marrying them... since in all the Marriages we've seen in Trek, Captains/Admirals have done the job... well always the senior officer...

Yes, this really isn't "Mega". And it's certainly not "Ultra" which, according to Hasbro, is actually bigger than "Mega".
If we adopt the transformer sizing system for spoiler warnings, we'd have
Basic spoilers Deluxe spoilers Mega spoilers Ultra spoilers Super spoilers and Supreme spoilers
This one barely rates a "deluxe".
(Although I'd like to see Super Spoiler battle the X-Men, myself...)
