Is it just me, or is that a blue and white stylized cat head?

That's because California knows how to party. (knows how to party)

There's a very good reason for this. Its fuckin cold up here so we huddle along the border to stay warm and not lose our healthcare.
ToxicPersonality
Yeah but one moose can weigh as much as 4 fat Americans.

Now why does Canada have merit based immigration?

To be fair the projection chosen could be a bit misleading, but cylindrical equal-area projections are kind of ugly.

90% of their population is massing on the border in an obvious prelude to invasion

Toronto is in the smaller section of both pictures. Makes sense.

So are Montreal and Ottowa.

No theyre not
gregolol
Also Halifax is on the square aswell.
wailiniazzarnelo
They must be for it to be 50%. Hard to tell on the image though.

That red line seems to cross the Island of Montreal. Montreal, in, Laval out in the north/south
Assfullofbread
Idk it looks pretty low. Hard to tell because the image quality is shit
mikeatike
Montreal is along the St Lawerence river, just above Vermont. Ottowa is actually farther south than Montreal.

Psssh, Australia: the Canada of the south more like it. Mommy loved us more so we were let go first.
WellBehavedZombie
You could a dot on Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver as say that's 1/3 of Canadas population.

WellBehavedZombie
Calgary is at 1.4M, Edmonton at 1.3M, Vancouver is at 2.4M. GVA also doesn't include 3 other places Abbotsford, Chillwack and Mission...
WellBehavedZombie
If these three were included that is another 260k people, which brings it to to the sum of the other two cities.
WellBehavedZombie
For reference, the DMV regulations for GVA apply to all of those areas, and many who live in those regions work in Vancouver.
ladyzeiraphera
No. They're not.
tajashal
Greater Vancouver is a much larger metropolitan area than either Calgary or Edmonton's metropolitan areas.
iamalreadyaghost
Yes southern Ontario is where most live and our leader is an idiot she has a monopoly on pot and said she’ll loss money selling it.

The fact that the land is colored blue and the water is colored white is fucking with me. We have conventions for a reason, you monster!
Xtrabored
We have areas larger than Texas solely inhabited by rabbits.
misterhamtastic
Any grants available to settle those areas?
BrokeMyFunnyBone
Texas almost has as many people as all of Canada.
PhailRaptor
But what about the foxes and hunter birbs that eat the rabbits?
AKR1
No, it's a paradise for rabbits, something like the Teletubbies (the presence of Teletubbies in these areas is debated, however).
upsidedownhead
Really fucken cold rabbits

First line isn't right. There's 37 million people in Canada, only 13.6 million in Ontario. That line needs to be higher.
MoaConstrictor
You might be right, but keep in mind that the line also encompasses Saint John and southern NS
AnDanDan
~8-9 million of those are strictly around Toronto, Niagara and Windsor.

White Horse during the winter is truly a symbol of man’s arrogance
LordIggy
It's just Whitehorse now. We were not worthy of two capital letters and a space.
bmadjar
Yeah, I don't think that first one is accurate. It leaves out a lot of major cities.
zFUBARz
Doesn't have to include them, Southern Ontario is like 12 million or so people. Only need to add in a few others to make the difference.
Nubsva
Assuming that line goes north of Montreal and Ottawa it's very plausible.
Talligan
I was wondering that - it might just hit Montreal. Otherwise that line needs to be a bit higher.
derekjohn
It does make the point that Canada might well be one of the few countries to benefit hugely from global warming.
PugPugPugPug
Yeah, no. Not so much.
imgolfer
A warmer North Pole will result in an unstable polar vortex which would mean much, much harsher winters for Canada and the United States.
derekjohn
will or could ? I've not seen that particular suggestion before.
imgolfer
When you get a moment, please research global warming, extreme weather, polar vortex, etc.
derekjohn
Please don't be quite so patronising.I would call myself an environmental scientist (f="B.Sc">B.Sc, M.Sc), but my speciality is soils,not climatology
imgolfer
Sorry if I seemed patronizing. It was not my intent.
TechNutz
Do you know global warming can cause colder weather than before also. So basically we will freeze to death

I have no idea why, but everytime @op posts a viral image, I get a notification "A post from Antartika made Most Viral"

I mean the check symbol, it will become a + when you stop following him

Because you probably accidentally pressed the "follow" button. Go in his profile and click on the cross by his username

Assfullofbread
It's always in Ontario
AnDanDan
Considering several of the largest cities in Canada are simply near Toronto by a quick google would point that out
AnDanDan
Tallying up several cities in the Southern Ontario Region, it has at least 7 million people, or roughly 20% of the country on its own.
AnDanDan
And Ontario on the whole has 13.6 million people as of four years ago, literally 1/3 of the countries population
zFUBARz
And people wonder why politicians pander to us a bit.
kirmokum
toronto is not the east coast.
IncromulentManchild
anything east of say, Banff, is the east coast
Kaosminett
I refer to everything east of Manitoba as the east coast. All those provinces have a coast so it’s not totally wrong
LordIggy
So does Manitoba. Why don't we draw the line at Saskatchewan? ;)
SumdumCanadiun
Nah Manitoba can come when the west leaves and starts our own Canada without Trudeau.
zFUBARz
Lol amazingly you only pissed off 1 Albertan.
UnlikelyMotivation
We don't matter anyway.
kirmokum
so edmonton is the east coast?

Quick maths puzzle: So what's the % of people living in the bottom right corner?
QuestioningAbsurdity
I did figure out that no matter how you arrange densities, for a population of any number opposite corners are the same pervantage of pop.
killernerd
10% purely by going on the area of each "bar" and assuming pcd (perfect Canadian distribution)
killernerd
so: this totally does not account for cities 'n shit.
annfranksbhole

About 1 million. Halifax, st John, some Quebec and some of Ontario.

TheVoiceOfMorganFreeman
Under 50%
BrokeMyFunnyBone
50% or less*
EntropyEJ
No, under 50% is correct, unless the two areas excluded by the crosssection has literally 0 population, which is virtually impossible.
hippocampus
but not mathematically impossible, therefore 50% or less is correct.
UserSubUserName
It’s still necessary to take real life into account outside of the class room.
DarthSwagnus
Trick question, some canadians dont identify as people, so its unsolveable.
MatthewBaranoff
An integer value.
cousteau
Hell no, the percentage (which is what they were asking for) could be something like 20.1. Captain pedantic, away!
MikeyTheMighty
100% you fricking idiots. it clearly say 50% on the right and 50% at the bottom. 50+50=100 q.e.d.
CheeseBelongsInTheKitten
That QED is the cherry on top...
rezpawner
That Q.E.D was a beautiful detail.
cangarejos
150% because as they are all together they're probably having sex and reproducing.
KinkAccount
To one significant figure at least, 0%
silentbob62
Between 0% and 50%. There's not enough info to determine any more
crossfire242
You've got the GTA there, plus Halifax and maybe a bit of Ottawa and Montreal. So I'd say about a third.
Fluffycorn
25% as 50% of 50% is 25%
cousteau
Maybe nobody actually lives in there, and all of Canada lives in the NE and SW quadrants.
Fluffycorn
but it has to be 25% right? because its half and half so in all the quadrants are 25%.... right? whats the right answer if Im wrong?
cousteau
Could be any number between 0 and 50%, technically. There's insufficient data for a meaningful answer.
killernerd
no
Fluffycorn
then whats the right answer??
killernerd
1. Unknown. Unless you start making assumptions about population density and such. So, as an exercises, let's assume a perfect distribution.
killernerd
any questions? :D
Fluffycorn
mate ... You are a legend!! Im just gonna upvote all of those ! tbh I didnt expect a helpful explanation from a person over the internet :D!
killernerd
6. extra info: it would've been 25% if the overlap covered half of both the right and bottom bar. Which it clearly doesn't.
killernerd
5. that overlap has a surface of 6.3cm² that times our average density of 15.88 people/cm² = 100 people almost exact. so 10% Q.E.D.
killernerd
5.5 avg density: (23.81 + 7.94)/2 = 15.88. and 15.88ppl/cm² * 6.3cm² = 100.044 people
killernerd
4. bottom bar: 23.81 people/cm². Now that right bottom corner overlaps so let's average both those densities out, bringing it to: 15.88/cm²
killernerd
4.5 50% of 1000 = 500. 500 live in the right bar, 500 in the bottom. so 500ppl/21cm² = 23.81ppl/cm² and 500ppl/63cm² = 7.94ppl/cm²
killernerd
3. right bar surface: 63cm², bottom bar: 21cm, and lets assume canada only has 1000 inhabitants. so density would be: right bar: 7.94/cm³
killernerd
2. I used a simple online ruler to determine the dimensions of both bars (these aren't accurate but the important part is the ratio anyway)
zFUBARz
Eh, probably about 9 million of so. maybe up to 12. it's a blurry image.
hippocampus
did you count all of them in the picture?
Metalhead47
At least four.
SirLintalot
Minus one that's three
wintercoat
Actually, given the information presented, it could be, though is highly unlikely to be, 0%. And no, too busy nitpicking to go to parties.
srtxf
Montreal (1.7 million) and Toronto (2.8 million) seem to be counted in both of those maps. The SE quadrant contains population counted twice

25%?
ElioNope
Not necessarily no. The four quadrants could be (clockwise from top left) 45%, 5%, 45% and 5%, still meeting the criteria. All we can (1/2)
HitlersArtCritic
45+5+45+5=100 I thought it said 45+5+5+5
ElioNope
say is that two opposing corners (eg the gray box and most-of-Canada) have equal % shares. (2/2)
cousteau
And between 0 and 50% of Canada's population, but that was kinda obvious, wasn't it?
monadi
Damn! Yeah I was getting stuck because it felt like I was missing key information.
