Dog Daze
One could argue that one of the greatest human achievements of the 20th century was powered flight based on the seminal work of the Wright brothers between 1900 and 1910 and eventually leading to men walking on the moon and supersonic jet fighters (although I'm still waiting for my flying car). What scientific or engineering discovery or invention of 2000-2010 will have had the most impact on humanity by 2100 and why?
Answer
Smart technology, the likes of Iphones, smartphones, tablets. They are allowing all people absolute acess to all the info the internet has to offer. Even books, newspapers, banking, shopping is all done online and on the go.

Canadian Inventors and Inventions
The history of invention in Canada has followed a long and noble path. Canadian inventors have patented more than one million inventions, yet few people can name more than one or two Canadian inventors or any Canadian accomplishments.
Canadian author Roy Mayer states in his book Inventing Canada: "Our innovators have given novelty, variety, and color to our lives with their great practical gifts, and the world would be an exceedingly boring and grey place without their vitality."
