It times like this that make me proud to be a Canadian. We have some very stupid people but not to that extent. Although I rarely talk to people I don't know iRL on a regular basis, one guy actually asked me if Moose roamed free in my backyard XD

it must be all americans who answered those questions even if it says other countries around the world. Vancouver is like rated number 1 in the world as best livable city and toronto being 10th. all ppl say is how cold we are up the north is stupid.
