Tips:

Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice can be used in a pinch, but it will not be as good.
If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by dissolving 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of boiling water. Let it cool completely before using.
You can use any type of Canadian whiskey you like. Some popular brands include Crown Royal, Canadian Club, and Forty Creek.
If you don't have egg white, you can use 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar instead. This will help to create a foamy top on your sour.
Garnish your sour with a lemon twist or a cherry.
