To celebrate Canada Day, we've highlighted some of the top innovations from Canada. The country is extremely diverse in its landscape, people and, as is proven by the following incredible ideas, discoveries and design, Canada offers a wealthy index of innovation as well.
It's pretty neat to think all these ideas come from the same country, eh?
Implications - Patriotism is a perennial theme in nearly every industry, and designers can capitalize on this phenomenon by creating products that cater to a specific country, state or city. Such products play on consumers' pride for their locality, which helps companies create a customer base that is engaged and passionate about their products.
