I would be interested in such an event. Maybe you should send some emails around
to some North Americans to get a better idea of the interest. Probably not
everyone who might be interested would read your message. If you could get some
prominent North Americans behind it (Bob and Bruce would probably be a good
start) that might help the cause.

Also, Bob has been in favor of doing things online in the past. That is another
option. North America is a large area, so no matter where you hold the event,
some people will have to travel a long way. Maybe alternating the type of event
on a 2 or 3 year cycle would work (in-person event once every 2 or 3 years,
online event the other years). Or maybe holding an online event for the first
couple of years to draw up enough recognition to hold an in-person event in
future years. Just some thoughts.
