This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It's not saying that "92% of Canadians are morally good" or even that anyone said "92% of Canadians are morally good."

It says that "92% of Canadians view other Canadians [i.e., in a general sense] as morally good.

In other words, most Canadians don't view maple-leaf-maga as indicative of 'Canadians' as a whole. And maple-leaf-maga apparently don't view the people they hate as real Canadians.
