I’ve been throughout Ontario and other than pronunciation you all look, sound and act just like us. Considering your population percentage wise is growing faster than ours, you too will see an increase in social issues. I’m sure your beer and back bacon will help you all persevere.

Thanks for the chart. But your comment I was responding to indicated less issues (plural) per capita. I was just curious what metrics you were using for your comparison. No biggie I just think that obesity is a result of many personal and socio economic issues, not just that person or people being lazy. I think this page in Wiki shows you much closer to your neighbors than you may have thought. Focus on BMI >25.
