Trivia

- Grandson of Canadian politician Tommy Douglas.
- Twin sister is Rachel Sutherland.
- He plays hockey and pool, as well as does rodeo riding. He's won in Phoenix and Albuquerque. He earned first place in the US Team Roping Championships. And when starting up on the rodeo circuit he decided to buy all the things needed. The horses, the bulls/cows, the tractors, the 900 acre ranch in Montana, then sold it once he was finished.
- He ranked at #68 on the 2006 Forbes Celebrity 100 list of the world's most powerful celebrities. His earnings were a reported $23 million, thanks to his family's established success in the Hollywood business, Canadian politics--and of course, Kiefer's immortal success on FOX's "24."

- He has signed a contract to be in 3 more seasons of 24 (2001) after Season 5. The contract says he will be paid $40 million, which makes him the highest paid actor on a television drama.
