I'm not going to take the time to refute the entire list, but to start with Canadians didn't push American forces all the way from the border to Washington D.C. It was British forces that sailed to Maryland that pushed inland to Washington and burned the White House. Lacrosse invented by Native Americans. Hockey isn't a Canadian invention. Basketball, while invented by a Canadian was started in the US. Same with Super Man. So on and so on. Not saying that Canada doesn't have anything to be proud of, but that list is lame just like most of those internet e-mails that go around.

Like saying the helicopter was invented by DaVinci.
