In Honour of Canada Day, I present this special report from McLeans:
Special Canada Day Report: How Canada stole the American Dream The numbers are in. Compared to the U.S., we work less, live longer, enjoy better health and have more sex. And get this: now we’re wealthier too.
And don’t forget to read the part on sex!
After more than 20 years of talking about sex, Johanson knows that the stereotype of the Canadian as frigid northerner — who prefers ice hockey to other, more steamy pursuits — is far from true. The numbers agree: compared to our American cousins, Canadians have more sex, with more partners, in more creative ways. But the numbers also tell us that we have fewer teen pregnancies and we’re less likely to get sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)… [snip]… All in all, it seems we have more sex with fewer negative consequences because we’re less afraid of it. According to McKay, “countries with more liberal attitudes to sex tend to have lower teen pregnancy and STD rates.”
And here’s one of my favourite episodes of Cute with Chris
