I have to make a mention of the Samyang 8mm fisheye, even if a fisheye wasn't specifically asked for. Cheap for a lens and you don't get much wider than that easily.
I'd also go with Brightcolours' suggestions except I'd say if you did go Canon 10-22, skip the hood as they're practically pointless on anything half wide.
I might throw in the Sigma 10-20 variable aperture model for consideration if you're on a budget.

The hood is wide, but main reason for a hood is lens protection (plastic bumper). I say: get one.
