Why did they do a survey on teens and not adults?

Because they are the future of Canada. They decide what happens tomorrow.

Wow they grow fast

America is evil! Canada is the best country in the world and you all know it!

Much like "hate," the word "evil" has lost much of its meaning. It's fairly commonplace for people to say they "hate" something, without real regard to what a strong feeling hate is. The same has happened with evil. It's commonplace to hear "Suchandsuch is evil," as the word has become a diluted slang-version of its former self, especially amoung 14-18 year olds.

Arthur Weinreb, on the other hand, likes to put a liberal amount of conservative spin on everything he writes, right down to almost outright-lies.

I think "Evil" has lost its meaning to most youth in Canada the same way that "awesome" has lost its meaning within the US youth.


It might even be a good thing, like "Wicked"

[MicroScreen2]

how can you call a country evil?

Pikers.


Everywhere else it's at least 75-80%.

What's wrong with those Canadian kids, anyway?

I like that, a liberal amount of conservative spin.

Very nice, very nice indeed.

It is well known that Canadians are very laid back.
