9. Canada
Oh, Canada!
We are continuing our list of countries that have invented the most things in all human history with USA’s good-hearted, non-violent, non-dim-witted half-brother is responsible for some of the greatest inventions of our times. Even though they are guilty for Justin Bieber-ing the world, they shall be forgiven, for they have also brought us Leonard Cohen and Jim Carrey in return. Still, these are people, not inventions, so here’s a little taste of what they did come up with:
Insulin as Diabetes treatment, Superman, Basketball, Standard time, Canola, AM radio, snowmobile, poutine, walkie-talkies, prosthetic hand, snow blower, foghorn, sonar, goalie mask, Imax, instant replay, trivial pursuit, lacrosse, ice hockey, electron microscope, cardiac pacemaker, Wonderbra, alkaline battery, caulking gun, jolly jumper, garbage bags, paint roller, Robertson screw, bloody Caesar, Plexiglas, pager, peanut butter, java, blackberry.
