Canada

"I've always wanted to see Canada but there's not much to see when you're locked in the trunk."

- Special Agent Fox Mulder

Canada is a country located in the continent of North America and lies north of the continental United States, but southeast of Alaska. Whereas the US is divided into fifty individual states, Canada is divided into ten provinces. They are: Ontario, Qubec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, Alberta and Newfoundland. Many movies and television programs, even American ones, are filmed in Canada due to the cost effectiveness of acquiring rites and permits from local governments. Many of these projects, such as the popular Fox Network television series The X-Files are filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The X-Men
On the 1990s animated television series The X-Men, the character of Wolverine originally hailed from the country of Canada. This is in keeping with the character's origins as provided in other material including his appearances in the original X-Men comic books published by Marvel Comics as well as the X-Men feature films and spin-off projects. Canada was only briefly seen in the series, and usually in flashbacks to Wolverine's origin. In the comics, Wolverine was born in the province of Alberta.
