I picked 6, but I'm wrong; it was a clue on Final Jeopardy this week and I thought it was mentioned the inventors were from the midwest, but they're from Montreal and I misremembered the entire exchange.

There is absolutely no way Canada was where bras were invented.

Bra-like garments are known to have existed in antiquity.

The modern brassire was created by Herminie Cadolle of France in 1889.

Pretty sure curling was invented in Scotland

Nor was paper money invented in Canada, did Ducky mess up and flip the question?

#9 is an 1861 $5 Demand Note, printed by the American Bank Note Company, headquartered in New York City at the time.

There is evidence that the Incas and Aztecs ground peanuts into a paste, and a product called pinda-kse (literally "peanut cheese") was invented in Suriname in 1783.

Bra were invented in france by the sounds of it according to a poster here

Paper egg cartons are Canadian

Insulin is Canadian

Curling is from Scotland

Paint Rollers are Canadian

Not sure what that game is, so no idea

Imax is Canadian

Garbage bags are Canadian

Bank notes usage can be traced back as far as 1750BC China

Peanut butter, the inventor seems to change often, what I can see it was invented by the creator of the Kelloggs brand in 1895, who is American. That was at least the top few results on Google. But also George Washington Carver has been credited for it also, who is also American. Either was, its not Canadian.

a tie between 1 and 4

I'm pretty sure the bra was invented by some french Noblewoman who couldn't take the corset anymore.

Just the wonderbra.

Pretty much did stupid trick ones in this topic.

And the Peanut butter one, I cant find a source at all saying it comes from Canada. I see US and South America, but not Canada in any history of things.
"Green" bank note ink is not indicated at all in that picture used for it, if anything it saying Banknote is the one of the options.
Also wonderbra is a trick question also. Just shitty over all.

not properly indicating what is actually being asked is not a "trick" question, it's a flawed question

for Peanut Butter, I can find that "Marcellus Gilmore Edson of Canada" was the first to patent "peanut paste". the aztecs had also made a peanut paste a long time earlier, and there were more advances to come after Marcellus to make what we now know as "peanut butter".

But that is a peanut butter-ish product with sugar, not exactly peanut butter.

Kellogg is generally considered to be the person who popularized peanut butter. It was originally a diet food, high in protein and requiring minimal chewing. Kellogg was a bit of a kook, you know.

He though he could end the "sin" of masturbation through circumcising everyone.

Everyone.

Which is the first pokemon?

Bulbasaur?
Mew?
Arceus?
Rydon?

A flawed question. But yea... You didn't indicate we were specifically talking about wonderbra's as opposed to the far more logical assumption of bras in general, there was NO indication that you were talking about the green ink in the slightest and it isn't reasonable at all for people to even consider that, and peanut butter is highly iffy at BEST since a better answer would be that it was first PATENTED in Canada, not INVENTED (which is not the same thing).
