Canada and Pynchon

So following on what Martin Eve did some time ago with PhDs done on Pynchon
in the UK, I decided to extend that some by looking at North America. While
going through the data (available thanks to Canadian Library and Archives)
i found something that caught my eye.

Most of you will be familiar with work done on Pynchon by Joesph Tabbi,
Laurence Daw, or Theodore Kharpertian (see early Pynchon Notes issues) but
did you know that they all did their grad work in Canadian universities in
the 80's?

Is there any particular reason for that? Was TP 'big' in Canada in the 80's?
