I think it is a member of the genus Euphorbia.  If I'm not mistaken it is a Euphorbia tirucalli also known as a Pencil Plant.  This plant is a bushy, tree-like succulent.

    If you break a leaf off does it bleed white? If it does i would agree that it is probably a Euphorbia of some branch (thats aHUGE plant family that is very confused) Pencil plant or Milk bush seem to be very likely canadates
