The first man in Canada, maybe (4)
I believe the answer is:
adam
'the first man' is the definition.
(first man in the Bible)
'canada maybe' is the wordplay.
'ADAM' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I'm uncertain how this is indicated.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for adam that I've seen before include "God's first son" , "One of our common ancestors?" , "who transformed the Palladian style?" , "Robert -, Sc. architect" , "__ Smith, author of The Wealth of Nations" .)
