I find it interesting that he found fame, fortune, and a wife in the US of A. That said, he took his sweet time (waiting until he was 64) to become a US citizen but he didn't ever move back to Canada after moving to Springfield as a 29 year old. I guess we weren't as strict on the whole immigration thing back in the day.
