My All-CanAmerican Celebration

Yesterday was the 4th of July, America's Independance Day. I could think of no better way to celebrate American than to see the new Superman movie on the IMAX at Navy Pier. But then I was struck by a thought. Although the IMAX embodies many American characteristics (excessiveness, loudness, bigger is better) it was invented by Canadians - Gramame Ferguson, Roman Kroitor, and Robert Kerr. Then I got thinking further. Superman (who is proabably one of the biggest American icons in history) was co-created by a Canadian, Joe Schuster. I thought to myself that maybe it would be better to do these seemingly American activities on Canada Day, July 1st.

Note:
Also in my research, I discovered a Mexican, Guillermo Gonzalez Camarena, invented color TV and a Canadian, Henry Woodword, invented the electric light bulb later sold the idea to Thomas Edison.
