I read a book about the history of Canada in Japanese lately. There are a lot of interesting stories for me. I tried to convert some stories from Japanese to English. The following sentences are from the book that I read. Could you please review my sentences?
1. In March, 1867, Canada became a dominion from the colony of the UK and the day is the national fundation day.
2. Canada's food sufficiency rate is 230% and the nations whose the rate is more than 100% is Australia, the USA, Canada and France only.
3. McDonald Japan imports almost all potatoes from a Canadian company, McCain Foods.
4. There are nine countries only which have more than 100% of the energy sufficiency. Canada is ranked fifth behind Indonesia.
5. Pierre Trudeau normalized the diplomatic relationship with China and that's earlier than the USA.
6. There are around 100 kinds of maple and only 5 kinds of that can make the maple sirup. In addition, the term of the harvest is quite limited.

A part which bundles my bamboo sword came untied while I was practicing kendo. I tied it three or four times by myself, but it didn't go well. At that time, a veteran man helped me and my bamboo sword became like a new one. I appreciate his kindness so much.

I went to a hot spring facility with my friend today. To enter the facility, an elevator is the only way to the entrance. Customers need to get on the elevator from the second floor. Customers getting on that from the B1 and first floor have to get off once and be in the last of line. The rule isn’t announced clearly and looks complicated. Actually there are foreigners from the downstairs on the elevator just before my getting on and they didn’t get off. A facility staff couldn’t persuade them and turned a blind eye on. If I understood the rule, I would help the staff. If I’m in the same situation, I’ll say as below. Is that polite way? If you know more polite and shorter way to explain, could you please let me know?
“Customers who are getting on the elevator from the downstairs need to get off at the second floor once. Would you mind getting off and going to the last of line, please?”

I'd like to make sure whether (!)the following English phrase is natural or not.
At a restaurant, three people ordered different food and beverage. The total payable amount was JPY3,300 and one of the man suggested as below.
(!) "Let's split the bill."
A Japanese website introduced that this phrase(!) will be used when people would like to pay fees equally.
(The case the above, JPY1,100 is payable per person.)
Sometimes this Japanese site publishes incorrect information. Therefore, I'd like to hear native English speakers opinion.

I like the song, "Thank Goodness" from the musical, Wicked. I'd like to make sure about the following lyrics meaning of the song.
One of the heroine, Grinda sings
"I couldn't be happier."
That sounds unhappy, but at that time, she was on the top of the happiness because she engaged. I assume that she'd like to sing how happy she is. (The lyrics of "I couldn't be happier" is synonymous with "super happy"?)
Is that correct?
PS:
I can't wait Ariana Grande's Wicked is on the screen.

I'd like to make sure a natural phrase to express the following my situation.
I visited a store with my friend lately. I finished my errands soon, but wasn't sure whether my friend wanted to see and purchase something more or not. I asked him what he is looking for. He didn't say clearly and time passed more than 45 minutes there. I was so irritated this situation. I described my friend as below. Is that natural?
"He spent chilling out there."
I was wondering if you could give me any advises.

I'd like to make sure about the meaning of the following person B's line.
Person A. "What do you think about that man who has long sideburns?"
Person B. "He has an attitude."
According to an online site, B means a negative meaning. Person B would like to say the man is rude. Is that correct?
Long sideburns are my feature, but rest assured that I'm not said such a thing by anyone. I didn't want to use another man's feature for this question.
