"I could understand how arrogance could be met with backlash, but never have I seen a thread with so much bashing of one country."
Well when someone makes a thread that gives off the vibe "we're so much better than all of you," that can't be met with surprise.


"It's funny being from Canada, you'd think there would be so many staunch similarities between us, but when I drive down into the US, I just have to marvel at all the incredibly overweight people who go into all night buffet steakhouses, and drive enormous SUV's."
That's a bit of a low blow, but world wide obesity is unfortunately increasing. I read somewhere by like 2050 about 9/10 people in Britain would be Obese.
In Canada as of 2004, it was about in it's high %20s while in the States it's about low 50s/high 40s.

Seems like Canada's obese is expanding faster then....

In 2007 according to the WHO 61.1% of Canada is clasfied as obese.

In the US it's 74.1%


WHO = World Health Orginization.

 

 Man, thats a lot of fat people, I guess too much Mc Donalds does hurt. Here in my country poor people tend to be more fat since they dont eat healthy food, its more expensive.
