MONTREAL (CP) -- D'oh Canada! The secret's out! Homer Simpson is . . . a Canadian. But -- ay caramba -- Matt Groening, his creator, hopes we won't have a cow about it.
In Montreal for a performance of The Simpsons -- In the Flesh stage show at the Just for Laughs comedy festival, Groening noted Thursday his dad was born in Canada and Homer is named for him so . . . .
"That would make Homer Simpson a Canadian," Groening said in an interview.

You'd think the donuts and beer would have given it away, eh?

Where is Springfield?
I knew that Homer was a canuck as is Superman.
Don't tell Earthquake Enyart tho, he'll be a little upset.

Springfield is just north of Longmeadow, just south of Chicopee. Springfield, MA, anyway. One of my favorite drunken debates. Which Springfield is home to the Simpsons? Matt Groening did spend some time in Northampton, MA which is just a little north of Springfield.
Springfield, Ontario, just northeast of Alymer

You're all wrong. It's not Springfield, MA, nor is it Springfield, IL. It's Springfield, KY.
Don't believe me? You're stupid then. It's a fact that was revealed on a Simpsons season finale.
Matt Groening is/was Canadian though.

If you look up Shelbyville, KY, you'll find it within a short drive from Springfield, KY.

Did you actually read the article? Here's what it says:
"I just finished watching the "B.T.L." episode...luckily i happen to
have taped it and was watching the credit in slo-mo...and for all of
you lucky people who recorded it too..you can check for
yourselves...during the credits it shows one of the producers names as
being : Weernout F. Romky
Break it down and it makes more sense.
We're (weer) not (nout) From (F. Rom) KY (ky) (for you dummies out
there...KY is the abbreviation for Kentucky...
i guess they played us for a bunch of dummies..."
Especially you, Rude..HA-HA
