    Default Is Canada too lenient?

    Really. Canada is like a safehaven for anything bad, for First World Countries. The bare minimum for sexual abuse/explotation is only 14 days. America it's 5 years. The canadian polices dont even care that much. A minor is 16 years of age. It's like a safehaven for anyone wanting to break a US crime, but just in Canada.


    But even with all this. Canada's crime rates are lower then Americas. I wonder why?

    less gap between rich and poor, less draconian justice system (locking up a lot of people doesn't mean you can stop crime, in the US, huge prison population makes rehabilitation much harder) and good welfare overall.

    Im afraid to say this, but America should follow Canada's footsteps with this justice system.

    Canada has a fraction of the American population. So their problems are a fraction of America's.
    "Romans not only easily conquered those who fought by cutting, but mocked them too. For the cut, even delivered with force, frequently does not kill, when the vital parts are protected by equipment and bone. On the contrary, a point brought to bear is fatal at two inches; for it is necessary that whatever vital parts it penetrates, it is immersed. Next, when a cut is delivered, the right arm and flank are exposed. However, the point is delivered with the cover of the body and wounds the enemy before he sees it."

    - Flavius Vegetius Renatus (in Epitoma Rei Militari, ca. 390)

    I found that myself when i went there. Most of it is very nice, but my cousin took us on a tour around some of the more seedy places that not many people know about, and it was certainly a bit of a shock to see how many prositutes and drug dealers and drug addicts and hooded youths there were in the 'Best city on Earth'.

    Canada's smaller population creates fewer criminals.
    Naturally, but don't mistake that to mean that there will be proportionally fewer criminals. Look at Scotland, its like the Canada of Great Britain (the big sparsley populated area in the North), and it is the murder capital of Europe.
    A new mobile phone tower went up in a town in the USA, and the local newspaper asked a number of people what they thought of it. Some said they noticed their cellphone reception was better. Some said they noticed the tower was affecting their health.

    A local administrator was asked to comment. He nodded sagely, and said simply: "Wow. And think about how much more pronounced these effects will be once the tower is actually operational."

    The Western Journal of Black studies is pseudo scientific and pseudo racist?

    You being a doctor should know that any publication has some form of bias, moreover it can be said that the researcher itself is biased, and so reading the article it looks like it was written by a graduate student
