Today I lost a bet.
Being a proud
Canadian, I balked when someone at
work said that
California had more people than
Canada. So I bet them that it didn't.
Mind you, I wasn't laying down any incredible amounts of money on this. I simply bet my co-worker a
coffee.
I was then
belittled by my fellow Canadian co-workers when I found the following figures:
- California: 35.1 Million (Early 2002)
- Canada: 30.2 Million (Mid 2001)
I am shamed.
Instead of sitting on my ass and whining about it though, I think I will embark on a journey to right this wrong. I have two options, and which path I take will be decided by you, the people of
Canada.
- 1. Increase the population of Canada. This will require many ladies to sleep with me. An unfortunate side effect.
- 2. Decrease the population of California.
Your choice!
