Drake has the most No. 1 hits, with 13 to his name so far. Bieber is also the youngest solo artist to notch 100 tracks on the chart. Bieber has the second most No. 1 hits, scoring eight in his career, followed by the Weeknd with seven. It's also a testament to the strategy of the featured artist: several of Drake and Bieber's No. 1 hits come through their work as featured artists.
Looking at how the songs break down over decade, it seems like the 2010s were easily the most successful era for Canadian artists on the Hot 100. But for the most part, those No. 1's came from the same three artists: Drake, The Weeknd and Bieber. The 2020s seem poised to repeat the same pattern, with 13 Canadian No. 1's so far, all by those three.

Drake has the most No. 1 hits, with 13 to his name so far. Bieber has the second most No. 1 hits, scoring eight in his career, followed by the Weeknd with seven. But he doesn't have the longest No. 1 streak — that goes to Justin Bieber, whose assist on "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee topped the charts for 16 weeks.
