Since it's Friday and we've officially been in Canada for one month, I wanted to post some of the famous people and inventions Canada has given the world.
- Wayne Gretzky
- Michael J. Fox
- Celine Dion
- Jim Carey
- Basketball: James Naismith invented basket ball in 1891
- Pamela Anderson
- Jack Warner- Founder of Warner Brothers Studio
- Cirque du Soleil
- Telephone: Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876
- k.d. Lang
- Lorne Michaels
- Zipper: Gideon Sundback invented zipper in 1913
- Shania Twain

- Abdominizer: Dennis Colonello invented this popular exercise instrument in 1984
- Bare Nakes Ladies

- Walkie - Talkie: Donald L. Hings invented this apparatus in 1942
That's just to name a few. I mean, where would we all be without the invention of the abdominizer!? Seriously, Canada is home to many famous actors, musicians, moguls and athletes. Aside from the massive amounts of snow they are said to have, it's a pretty great place to live!
Have a great weekend! Enjoy the good old United States of America for us!
Happy One Month Anniversary, eh !
