A New York Times story
talks about Cleveland, Ohio as the birthplace of Superman, but fails to mention, as Global News points out in '10 fun facts about Superman's Canadian ties'
"The Superman character was co-created by Canadian artist Joseph Shuster. Born in Toronto, he is a cousin of Wayne Shuster, one-half of the beloved Canadian comedy duo Wayne and Shuster. Joseph, who passed away in 1992 at the age of 78, said Metropolis was modelled on Toronto and the Daily Planet was inspired by the Toronto Star, which he delivered as a kid."
