== History ==
The Simpsons first visited Canada when [[Bart]] convinced them to follow his girlfriend [[Greta]] to [[Toronto]], where [[Ranier Wolfcastle|her father]] was filming a movie. Upon seeing Canada for the first time, [[Marge]] declared, "It's so clean and bland; I'm home!" The family toured the "Paramountie Pictures" studio lot, where they witnessed a shoot for the film ''Canadian Graffiti'': a lone actor was shown spray-painting "OBEY THE RULES" on a nondescript building. Later, Bart and [[Milhouse]] joined the Canadian basketball team. For Homer, Canada is "Little America". In Canada, [[Canadian mountie]]s, hockey players (with protective gear, helmet, stick and skates on their feet) and [[Bigfoot]]s travel by bus.<ref>"[[The Bart Wants What It Wants]]"</ref>

When Bart and [[Lisa]] were in the third grade together, Bart tried to teach her mnemonics for Canada's provinces and prime ministers.<ref>"[[Bart vs. Lisa vs. the Third Grade]]"</ref> Lisa sewed a Canadian flag on her backpack when the family visited Italy, explaining, "Some people in Europe have the impression that Americans have made some [[George W. Bush|stupid choices]] in the past, oh, five years, so for the next week, I'm from Canada."<ref>"[[The Italian Bob]]"</ref>

The Canadian national anthem, "{{w|O Canada}}", was sung at a baseball game after a fight broke out because of a dispute between the Pre-Teen Braves and the Cavalry Kids over the singing of {{w|The Star Spangled Banner|the national anthem}}. Marge started sobbing because of the fighting, and when she was put on the stadium's Jumbotron, the [[Sea Captain]] suggested that they all sing together instead—"and not a hymn to war, like our national anthem, but a sweet, soothing hymn, like the national anthem of Canada". As the crowd sang, they joined hands on the field to form a maple leaf.<ref>"[[The Bart of War]]"</ref>

[[Homer]], [[Grampa]], [[Apu]] and [[Ned]] all visited Canada to smuggle cheap prescription drugs from there into [[Springfield]], but were arrested when they returned (mainly because they crashed their plane and woke [[Chief Wiggum]] up).<ref>"[[Midnight Rx]]"</ref>

Canada was also the location of the [[2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics|2010 Winter Olympics]] in [[Vancouver]], where team [[Simpson]]-[[Skinner]] entered the mixed [[curling]] event and won the gold medal. In the meantime, [[Bart]] got to know some of the local children, becoming fast friends with [[Milhoose]] and also meeting [[Nelson]]'s [[Canadian Nelson|Canadian counterpart]].<ref>"[[Boy Meets Curl]]"</ref>

[[Smithers]] had many misadventures in Canada trying to bring [[Mr. Burns]] some ice.<ref>"[[The Great Phatsby: Part One]]"</ref><ref>"[[The Great Phatsby: Part Two]]"</ref>

Lisa got political asylum in Canada and wanted to stay there. Eventually, Lisa went home.<ref>"[[D'oh Canada]]"</ref>

The Monroe family have a book from Canada.<ref>"[[The Girl on the Bus]]"</ref>
