Letter of the Month - Canadian Wankers
By: Letters

1. If your quiz is about determining what degree a person is canadian or not then you will have to be less specific. I doubt a quebecer or a person from Newfoundland knows or cares about BCs Comedians/Actors.

2. Granpa just because you are stuck in a time warp with old people/topics don't call younger Canadians unCanadian 49% by average.

3. Think about it, if 49% is the average of the Canadians who took the test, cause nobody from other countries cares.Then how accurate is your test.

4. Let me give you a quiz. When was my Canadian grandmother born. Wrong looks like your 0% canadian.

If you are going to through stuff like this out there, think about it first.

First, I'd like to say thanks for reading Bacon Magazine, and thanks for your input. We always welcome comments. Our response to your questions/comments is below.

1. This is a 'CANADIAN' quiz. It's not the B.C. quiz. It's not the Quebec quiz. If you haven't heard of Cheech & Chong, then you've been living in a cave. The questions in our quiz span geographical, cultural and time lines. They range from very easy to very difficult. There are hundreds of questions in the database, each time you take the quiz, 20 questions are randomly selected. If this quiz is too difficult for you, perhaps you need to do a little studying. Where are you from? Are you solely interested in actors and musicians from your province? I seriously doubt it! But now that you mention it, who really considers Quebec part of Canada anyway?

2. We could have written a quiz full of questions about Avril Lavigne and Jim Carrey, but besides you and your friends, who would have cared to take it? The quiz is meant to test the Canadian knowledge of all people, not just those still in high school. Canada has a fantastic history. If you are suggesting that we forget our past, then you truly aren't Canadian. Our strong cultural heritage is what defines us as 'Canadian'.

3. The average rank on the quiz is 66%. We are happy with this average, as it means most Canadians have a good working knowledge of their country, it's culture and history. Some people score poorly and bring down the average... so maybe you and your friends shouldn't have taken the quiz.

4. Well, judging from your letter, we're thinking you're about 16. You sound redneck enough, so your father probably had you when he was 16. Keeping with the family tradition, your Grandmother must have had your dad when she was 16, so therefore, your grandma is 48. Is she single?

You're right, we should think about things first. We think you're a dumbass!

p.s. It's no surprise you scored poorly on this quiz. If your spelling and grammar are any indication, you really are 16 - but still in grade 5.

What I think you meant was: If you are going to THROW stuff like this out there, think about it first. We recommend you follow your own advice.

p.s.s You said, "Wrong looks like your 0% canadian." The word you meant to use is 'you're'. Looks like YOU'RE an uneducated fool.
