Which is actually correct, don't know why u get downvoted. Hinton and Bengio are all affiliated with Canadian institutions when deep learning takes off. And it is AlexNet that really gives DL its very first big momentum.
Even now, I would say U of Toronto and U of Montreal are still the best universities for DL across the North America.

Well that goes to Taiwan. Canadians are upset all their talent is flocking to the US. Even Yousha Bengio's brother works for Google.
