It does not mean they have less potential, but less has been accomplished. First Nations in Canada have a literacy rate of less than 50%. Mostly due to oral traditions, poor parent role models, remote squallor living conditions, and contempt for 'whitey' education.

I score in the top percentile of the IQ scale (real IQ tests, none of those make you feel good tests that you do online), speak four languages, completed my masters degree with distinction, contributed to and mentioned in name in a book that was a national best seller, just got the news that my photography will be showcased in a nationwide exhibition sponsored by the federal government...and I'm a M�tis. Your turn.


Is that so? If that's the best comeback you've got, then I've clearly succeeded in making you feel rightfully inadequate.

Lousy troll but got three pages. No offers to meet in Itewon for a fight, pretty average.

Basically what counts is whose unis are rated highest. There that should get things rolling.

Why did you delete what you wrote? You are the voice of young Canada and have a lot to say. Among Canada's best and brightest no doubt.You are a product of the world beating Canadian education system. Don't deprive the world by self censoring yourself.

This is pointless.

If an American had equal access to quality healthcare and post-secondary education as a Canadian the results would surely be equal.

Except that they don't...

Socialist policies = fail?

Then what is a library? What are the police and fire departments?

Oh wait, America = fail

Why did you delete what you wrote? It really pissed me off and I wanted to whimper away and never return, so angry with you, but then I realized, well, I think I love you. You are a product of the world beating Canadian well endowed system. Don't deprive me just because I'm fat and stupid. Embarassed


oh, thank you... Twisted Evil what took you so long, Miss America? somebody finally read to you what i posted?

and here you are...back again like the hypocrite you truly are. how can anybody trust what you post, stupid? your lack of reading comprehension skills is surpassed only by your lack of eloquence.

you were abandoned at birth, and adopted by moles and lived your developmental years as a feral child in tunnels and sewers underground. rat-con, the she-man whose entire vocabulary consists of entries found in the dictionary of the mentally challenged. your infinitesimal genitalia dwarf the size of your even more infinitesimal cerebrum. you work at a petting zoo because you enjoy animals (in all ways improper). Laughing

you spend the majority of your free time cleaning up ejaculation stains from midget she-male bestiality film sets, yet still loves the sewers [redacted]. the creature who wouldn't have ever been conceived had it not been for your birth mother's vertical smile being a breeding ground for pubic lice while her primary source of income was providing henry james services to drunken panhandlers.

people, please put your hands together for...

Miss America aka rat-con (take a bow good sir) Razz


AMERICA!

if Canadians are so well eduated then why do they fail so miserably at understanding the differene between a population of 315 million and a poulation of 25 million. There is just no way to compare the two. I mean the U.s. has 11- 14 million illegals. But as all of us who have had to listen the the relentless droning of the Canadian bores whose inferioity complex drives them to make these absurb comparisons.

So heres a quickie. name every Canadian Novbel prize winner in science:

The amount of Nobel winners is not really an accurate measurement of a nation's overall intelligence. But as long as you are keeping score, since the year 2000 Canada has 2 and the US has 85.

Those might relate.

But usually results from reserve populations I think are excluded in govt. data, to improve the scores.

Hard discussion to have since it seems about half the people on this forum are Canadian. All of the main apologists are as well, which is ironic. Constant Canadian bombardment from the inferiority-complex-ridden canucksteh's.

Nice try. They are completely unrelated.

No, it's pertaining to work I've been doing for years and for which I've already received quite a bit of recognition.

Results from reserve populations excluded? You're talking out of your a..

PS. What's with the pathetic trolls who feel threatened anytime someone posts anything about Canada? Do Canadians freak out every time there's a discussion about the United States? If we did, we'd be spending every waking hour commenting in this forum.

"The Labor Force Survey covers the civilian, non-institutionalised population 15 years of age and over. It is conducted nationwide, in both the provinces and the territories. Excluded from the survey's coverage are: persons living on reserves and other Aboriginal settlements in the provinces; full-time members of the Canadian Armed Forces and the institutionalized population.These groups together represent an exclusion of less than 2% of the Canadian population aged 15 and over."

The Labour Force Survey? You've gotta be kidding. It provides estimates of employment and unemployment. That's it.

Besides...
