Did a meteor hit Canada?

Yes, every day. Most of them are pretty small; the average meteor that you see in the sky is the size of a grain of rice or smaller. Bigger one do land occasionally. But about 15000 years ago, there's evidence that a fairly large meteor, or comet, or asteroid, DID hit northern Canada, which may have caused the "Younger Dryas" mini-ice age. The extinction of the woolly mammoth appears to have happened at about the same time, and also the disappearance of the pre-Indian "Clovis people" who seem to have been the only humans on the North American continent at the time.

What are physical features in Iowa?

Iowa has no geographical features; it is notoriously flat. Just kidding!! While Iowa is the 9th flattest US state (by total range of elevation), and its most famous geographical feature is the quite flat southern Iowa drift plains, most of the rest of the state has quite varied geography. Notable features include the Mississippi River, the Iowa Great Lakes, the hardwood forests and razor ridges of the Loess Hills, the Driftless Area in north-east Iowa (noted for its rugged hills, steep bluffs and deep, scenic river valleys such as the Upper Iowa), Paint Rock Bluff (a rocky bluff in the Mississippi named for its Native American petroglyphs) and the intriguing Manson meteor crater (which you can't actually see from the surface, unfortunately.) Also, not strictly geographical, but Iowa was one of the homes of the Mound Builder culture and there remain a large number of massive, prehistoric earthworks. Particularly notable is Effigy Mounds National Monument, where over 200 mounds are arranged in the form of gigantic animals.
