Wikipedia:Canada collaboration/Stephen Leacock

This nomination was selected as the October 2006 Canada collaboration. (improvements)

Stephen Leacock
Perhaps the most famous Canadian writer of the early 20th century, his funny short stories, notably those in Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town, gained world-wide recognition and helped establish a tradition of Canadian humour distinct from that of American or British humour. There is lots of source material that can easily be found: several biographies and two posthumously published autobiographies exist, and chances are at least one or two of these can be found at any library in Canada.
