Americans eat pizza with Canadian bacon on it, which has nothing to do with Canada. Canadians eat from a restaurant called Boston Pizza, which has nothing to do with Boston. It's a fiar trade-off.
Actually, it's interesting. Not only does it have nothing to do with Boston, but it was founded in Alberta. That's, like, one step away from British Columbia. It's basically on the opposite end of the continent as Boston. And no, it's like like it was founded by a Bostonian. It was founded by a Greek immigrant. And no, it's not like it's a merely Canadian-based company that primarily markets itself toward Americans. Almost 90% of their outlets are in Canada, generally in the western half.
So man builds Rome. Rome becomes Italy. Italy invents pizza. Americans appropriate Italian food and turn it into something unrecognizable while still branding it Italian. Canadians eat Americanized Italian food and make it a Canadian thing. In Soviet Russia, Canadian Americanized Italian food eats man. Woman inherits the Earth.
