Ok, this probably won't happen again for a million years.. Turkey - USA final!

[Typhoid]

He was an American, regardless of where he was born...America is a country, and his citizenship was American. Therefore he is American...Perhaps he had dual citizenship, who knows,

He was born a Canadian who, when he was 30 - moved to Springfield to teach at the YMCA.

He was the son of two Scottish immigrants.
So he is a Scottish-Canadian, who took dual-citizenship after the age of 30 to become a Canadian-Born Scot, living in America; while still being Canadian.

He moved to the US to become the Phys Ed teacher at the YMCA. Not because he hated one country, or loved another. Because he liked the job that was offered, and needed to be a dual-citizen to work there. Was he an American? No. He was a Canadian-American. The reason the "Canadian" part gets thrown to the side is because the sport was conceived in the US, despite the inventor, so omitting the fact he is/was Canadian, makes it seem like a purely American creation.
