Saturday morning on the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) there
was a piece about halls of fame.  I believe the program it was on was
"Basic Black" and all the information was taken from a recently
published book on, yes, you guessed it, halls of fame.  Much of the
focus was on non-sports halls of fame so this may be worth pursuing.
As I recall the book covered all of North America, however most of the
examples given were from the United States.
CBC in Vancouver or Toronto would have further and more complete info
but I am pretty sure it was aired Saturday, October 7.
