[[Image:Canada.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A representative Canadian landscape, eh? (Not shown: milk in a bag.)]]
'''Canada''' is like the [[United States of America]], but bigger, politer, and health care-ier. In retaliation, the United States wears Canada like a hat, eh? In that retaliation the United States is Canada's ass.

[[Toronto]] is Canada's largest city, eh? (Yes, there are cities littered aboot the country!)

==Non-fiction, eh?==
Canada has had a surprisingly large behind-the-scenes role in producing Transformers. It is home of [[Mainframe Entertainment]], who produced the [[Beast Wars (cartoon)|Beast Wars]] and [[Beast Machines (cartoon)|Beast Machines]] television series. It was also home to the now-defunct [[Dreamwave Productions]] whose [[Prime Directive|top-selling 2002 Generation 1 revival comic]] led directly to the production of the [[Transformers (2007)|2007 movie]].{{fact}} Several Transformers voice actors and comic artists also call Canada home.

During the tail end of Generation 1, Canada received several toys the U.S. did not, like the [[Turbomaster]]s. Generally speaking, US exclusives tend to turn up at Canadian retail, with [[Walmart]] and [[Toys"R"Us]] keeping their exclusives and [[Target]] exclusives winding up at [[Wikipedia:Zellers|Zellers]], a Canadian chain.

Due to Canada being a bilingual country, it's always had [[multilingual packaging]]. The toys also required multilingual character names for a long time. This tends to cause problems, as Toys"R"Us has for a long time not produced multilingual packaging for their exclusives, resulting in them being sold in most of Canada but not in the French-speaking province of Quebec. This has changed with the release of the [[Whirl (ROTF)|"Masters of Metallikato"]] [[Bludgeon (ROTF)|two-pack]], but it remains to be seen if it will be the exception or the new rule.

==Fiction, eh?==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
{{noteukonly}}

''The remote town of [[Doonstown]] had the misfortune to be the battleground for [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] and [[Sludge (G1)|Sludge]]. The town was destroyed and the Decepticons raided a nearby oil rig.'' {{storylink|Dinobot Hunt!}}

''After getting caught spying on the [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicon]]s in [[Alaska]], [[Hoist (G1)|Hoist]] had to carry his brain-damaged comrade [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]] back to the United States through Canada. It took him two days.'' {{storylink|The Mission}}

When [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] blew up the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] like a shaken-up bottle of beer, it crashed somewhere in northern Canada. The Ark, not the beer, 'cause that'd be a waste of good beer. But [[Galvatron II|Galvatron]] survived the crash, and since he's like, a big [[Hosehead|hoser]], he killed a bunch of Canadian army guys. Then [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] and [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] came and beat him up and tossed him in a lake, and that was pretty much it for Galvatron. {{storylink|The Last Autobot?|The Last Autobot, eh?}}

====Earthforce====
{{earthforcefiction}}
When [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] and his group broke away from the regular [[Autobot]] forces, they landed their [[Ark shuttlecraft|shuttle]] near [[Churchill]], [[Manitoba]], an area, like, famed for its polar bears. {{storylink|Once upon a Time...|Once upon a Time...eh?}}

[[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]] began construction of a permanent [[Earthbase]] nearby, presumably from parts of the shuttle. {{storylink|Mystery!|Mysterious, eh?}} The Earthforce were then visited at their shuttle by the Autobot [[Survivors]], requesting assistance to rescue [[Carnivac (G1)|Carnivac]]. {{storylink|Wolf in the Fold!|Wolf in the Fold, eh?}} Augmented by the Survivors and the [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], the Earthforce completed their base, but there were teething toubles with the security system {{storylink|The House that Wheeljack Built!|The Howse that Wheeljack Built!}} and they were attacked by [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]'s forces before these could be fixed. Fortunately they were able to drive off the [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|Divide and Conquer!|Divide and Conquer, guy!}}

Not long afterwards, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] visited the Earthbase for an inspection, while the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]]s attempted to hide a psychotic defect in [[Slag (G1)|Slag]]'s circuitry. {{storylink|The 4,000,000 Year Itch!|The 4,000,000 Year Itch, eh?}} The Autobot leader left behind [[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] in the Earthforce's [[Body Shop]] to Grimlock's great displeasure. {{storylink|Makin' Tracks!|Makin' Tracks, friend!}} After Optimus returned to the Ark, the three [[Mayhem Attack Squad|Mayhems]] [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]], [[Stranglehold]] and [[Octopunch]] escaped from Earthbase's brig by keeping schtum. {{storylink|Shut Up!|Keep it down, buddy!}}

After assisting the Earthforce in deactivating a [[cerebro-shell]]-controlled [[Superion (G1)|Superion]] in [[New York City|New York]], the human reporter [[Irwin Spoon]] visited the Earthbase to conduct an interview with Grimlock but the interview was interrupted by the [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]] driving up the only road in Canada to abduct Spoon. {{storylink|Front Line!}} Though he was rescued, he was implanted with a cerebro-shell himself by [[Bombshell (G1)|Bombshell]] and ended up writing Decepticon propaganda. {{storylink|End of the Road! (UK)|End of the Road, eh!}}

{{note|At which point Marvel UK stopped producing original stories.}}

===Japanese cartoon continuity===
The Autobot group led by [[Ginrai]] first met up with [[Ranger]] in the vast Canadian forests and [[Lightfoot]] at his father's motor company. Both learned aboot their ability to "God On" with their Transtectors soon after. {{storylink|An Enemy? The Third Godmaster, Ranger|An Enemy, eh? The Third Godmaster, Ranger}}

Lightfoot's father moved from [[United Kingdom|England]] to Canada to fulfill his dream of starting a car company, this apparently being more achievable in Canada. The resulting company is the prestigious [[British Motors]], which is a perfectly logical name for a company started in Canada. {{storylink|Lightfoot: A Dramatic Encounter}}

===Dreamwave Generation 1 comics continuity===
[[Lazarus]] has a secret base there, eh? The Canadian army attacked the Autobots for trying to save them, eh? {{storylink|Prime Directive}}

They have clone armies, eh?!

===Unicron Trilogy===
[[Kicker Jones|Kicker]] and [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] work to install [[Base Unit 1]] with the [[Omnicon|Omnicons]] not really helping. {{storylink|Omni-Potent}}

After purging the world of the Terrorcon clones, Megatron heads to the planned site of Base Unit 1 for an intense battle against [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] {{storylink|No Exit}}

[[Mudflap (Cybertron)|Mudflap]] roams aboot the frozen wastelands like a pale blue force of nature, eh?

===''Transformers Animated''===
Canada is very close to [[Detroit]]. However, despite what a certain [[Porter C. Powell|pompous windbag]] thinks, there are no "international" waters in [[Lake Erie]]. Just American and Canadian, eh? {{storylink|The Return of the Headmaster}}

===Titan Magazines (Revenge of the Fallen)===

[[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]] arrived on Earth over Toronto, then happily swam to Ball's Falls where they picked up alternate forms. On the way in, Mudflap accidentally hit this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CN_Tower big pointy thing], but that won't cause any problems, right? {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.2|Dogfight!}}
