Railroad crossing emergency information signs. It's important for that to be high up so no one misses it.

Horton Street in the Bronx. Not only did they name a street after a Canadian icon, they posted a yellow sign underneath the street name describing Mr. Horton's fate.

Yeah, funny how California has so many roads named after Canada.

It was only recently that I heard how "Cañada" was actually pronounced.  It seems substantially different than what I expected.

I asked the AI bot in the wiki Discord server for the 30 least Canadian things, and it came up with stuff like "replacing the maple leaf with a JPEG of a vape", "saying 'bagged milk is fake news'", "banning plaid", "national anthem performed on leaf blower", "a Canada goose that respects pedestrians", and "Saskatchewan but vertical".
