Bob Macadoo Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 You think it's harder for them to point to places they've been to? I never made it to Havana but I can place it on a map because I've visited Cuba. I'd take odds a Yank who's been to Toronto couldn't place Montreal. Quote
jbg Posted July 2, 2014 Report Posted July 2, 2014 Media coverage and relevance might be one thing, but per capita population has literally nothing to do with it. Canadians and Americans know more about the geography of Australia than they do about China, despite China's far denser population and huge and notable cities. Australia is just more relevant to most of them.Also some Australians speak a language similar to that spoken by some Canadians.

-1=e^ipi Posted July 2, 2014 Report Posted July 2, 2014 Gee, this thread is a gathering of the great minds of MLW. Vancouver island is now Victoria island and it's grown to be bigger than Britain! Lol. Someone doesn't know the name of Canada's 2nd largest island... Quote

cybercoma Posted July 2, 2014 Report Posted July 2, 2014 http://www.buzzfeed.com/tanyachen/americans-fail-canada-again?bffb There has to be a White Walker or two in Nunavut. Sorry CC, not a single person got New Brunswick. That's ok. My family still thinks i live in Newfoundland. They don't seem to understand Atlantic Canadian geography either. Quote
monty16 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 My opinion is that attacking Americans on the basis of the topic of this thread is just a cheap shot. We have lots of much more legitimate issues to attack them over. Don't let this become a diversion from the real task at hand. Quote

Why are you trying to censor others? Quote
monty16 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 gosthacked, that isn't an attempt to censor others, that's your fantasy maybe. What it really is is my opinion that we don't need to attack the Americans for their lack of elementary geography knowledge. They have their own country to think about. Did you really think I was trying to shut people up? If so and you think it's a crime of something then why not report it as such. And if not then let me stoop to the level of which your accusing me right now! Shut up your personal attacks on me for your entertainment or just put up. Your choice friend. Your worthless babbling aside! Quote
On Guard for Thee Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 Gee, this thread is a gathering of the great minds of MLW. Vancouver island is now Victoria island and it's grown to be bigger than Britain! Speaking of great minds of MLW, there is a Vancouver Island, and there is a Victoria Island. Two different islands get it? Victoria island is about the same size as Britain. Quote
monty16 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 On guard, you're obviously confused because Vancouver island and Victoria is on the island but they are not the same as Great Britain island. Quote

Go get yorself an atlas, look up, look way up, all the way up into the Canadian arctic. You will find an island called, wait for it Victoria Island. Apparently you do know something about Vancouver Island, and there is a city there called Victoria. I know this is all confusing, but hey, if I can figure it out, you should be able to keep up. Quote

monty16 Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 But there is such a rule and I've quoted it directly. Don't spam me with your complaints, ask the moderators. Quote
