Canada’s covid-19 second wave is a humbling moment after a summer of bragging

At the time of this post:

US: COVID-19 deaths per million: 994

Canada: COVID-19 deaths per million: 379

What else you got?

But, yeah, there's enough stupid Canadians to go around. Although not quite the embarrassment of riches as evidenced in the US.

My bad, I’m having a senior moment or too much eggnog..... thought Freddy Foresight was Canada’s internet champion?

Ding ding ding ding...
Winner winner chicken dinner.

Eh!

We can always count on you to post pointless articles and ideas. It's who you are, the Maple Syrup King ( aka The Fake American ), and the world confounds you all the time. Apparently a few journalists are almost as clueless, or maybe they just understand their target audience. Trump has that down pat.

From a couple days back...

Ontario will enter province-wide lockdown as of Christmas Eve, sources say

You stupid bastard.
Almost 10X the population density in the US compared to Canada.
TEN TIMES!
Where do all these stupid people come from.

Canada's large cities are fairly densely populated, commensurate with some of those in the US. And that is where most of the infected are situated.

But, being the stupid bastard that you are, you're trying to avoid any reasonable manner of comparison.

But you just compared it country to country. What do you expect?
Canada has 9 cities over 500,000 population.
America has 40.

per million

Although about 72% of Canada's population is urbanized compared to about 83% in the US, that difference does not nearly explain the difference in deaths per million.

But population density does.
America is 10X as densely populated as Canada.

Are you sure you're getting enough oxygen? I try to make an apple-to-apple comparison while accounting for the differences, and you just doof out.

Okay, you want to go the density route? How about Germany? Is it densely populated enough for you? Germany's population is over 80 million, and it is smaller than the state of Montana. Did you compare their deaths per million with that of the US?

Angela Merkel is a rock star. Trump is a frump, and so are you.

I had to block a couple of guys for now the denying rhetoric is getting stupid. My source had Canada and US even closer on urban percentage almost identical ( guess it depends on what urban is defined as ). It's all irrelevant of course Southern Ontario is as dense as most areas of the US given that Toronto is the 4th largest city, and the true metro area ( sprawl ) is close to 6-7 million which is almost half the entire province.

Some of these guys just don't get it ( or don't want to get it ). Ontario at roughly 287 is a LOT lower then Florida at 966, and both are way lower then North and South Dakota which are far less densely populated. In fact, if they knew Canada, they'd discover Alberta is the national leader in Covid stats these days and Quebec has been consistently higher then Ontario all year.

Tsing Tao will deny every comparison that exists; Southern Ontario is a very valid comparison he just has no clue about Canada really.
