Off the small top of my head, I'd like to see:

Murphy's Stout, Seems to come and go, haven't seen it for a while
Abita would be nice, but I'm not sure how they faired in Katrina. Maybe the water supply was ruined?
Granville Island Lager
And I will add my vote for Sierra Nevada,

I't been a while since I was in Portland Oregon, so I have forgotten some of the great beers I tried there. There were definitley some good candidates even though Ontario micros can hold their own on quality too.

Actually, De Ranke Kriek is a cherry flavoured Flemish Red. But not every cherry using brewer has had problems with CN- . As far as I know, only Cantillon has had issues.
