So I was given an assignment to look into Canadian inventions the other day. I discovered that one of Canada's most prolific inventors ever lived right here in Ottawa and worked for the NRC.

His name was George Klein, and here he is (on the left) with one of his early works, circa 1952. It's the electric wheelchair. Think how many people the electric wheelchair has helped over the years. Klein even fitted the modern joystick.

Klein was asked to look into the wheelchair problem because of the large number of men who returned from WW2 with spinal trauma and/or missing limbs. He went on to work on the Alouette satellite, and was a major player in the design of the Canadarm, just to mention a few of his other contributions.

Everyone is perfect! We have the opportunity to live our best lives.

It's no secret that the smooth, plastic bodies staring out of store windows aren't true physical replicas of the people who stare back at them. But there's no reason they can't be.
