Canadians also invented the maple syrup cannon. It's incredible!
 
Silly canadians think they invented light bulbs?



LMAO!!
 
In 1874, two Canadians - Henry Woodward and Mathew Evans - created and patented the first "electric light bulb". They later sold the patent to Thomas Edison for $5,000. Edison perfected the electric light bulb and was the first to market the device successfully.

So I guess that's what they mean by light bulbs.
Ironically you linked to the same page that I was going to link to to show they didn't invent it, and in fact just took other people's earlier work and added to it. Thanks for backing up my claim.
