The name Canada Does Not Exist sounds like it refers to works that ignore or downplay Canada's involvement in historical events (like Argo or The Longest Day) or works that ostensibly deal with the fate of the whole world but never mention Canada (like every Roland Emmerich movie other than The Day After Tomorrow). TV Tropes, however, uses it to refer to Canadian works that are ambiguous about whether they are set in Canada or in the US. (This sounds like a subtrope of Where the Hell Is Springfield?.) It looks to me like this article need a more indicative name.

The five best Superman writers are Dan Jurgens, Jeph Loeb, Geoff Johns, Kurt Busiek, and Peter J. Tomasi.

With our current backlog, we need more than just anecdotal evidence.
