Wow. I’m American, and I can correctly label every single country in the world (including islands), every Canadian Province and United State. It saddens me that every person outside of the US believes that we are all morons.

I see a lot of people misunderstanding this article.

As far as I could tell, the author is NOT saying that the differences in weather are due to latitude. He is just pointing out that latitude does not entirely determine the weather. Also, that Canada’s borders are pretty far south. Then again, I’m not a mind reader, but I’m pretty sure I got the gist of this.

Point Pelee starts at the 42nd parallel the same latitude as northern California as a matter of fact if not for a one day war between the Americans and Brits that would be the border now.

The majority of responders on this post are douchebags for one reason or another. Too many reasons to enumerate. Thank goodness there are still people who see the ‘comments’ section as a chance for discussion. However, I grieve for humanity as a whole.

And here is something else for you (I apologize if someone else already said this, I didn’t read all 26 comments.) Point Pelee, Canada’s most southern point, is farther south than the northern border of California. Canada south of California, what?
