Why are there so many Canadians on this site?

Long time lurker here. Why is there such a disproportionate number of Canadians on this site? They seem to fall into three categories
1) Can't decide between Ivey and Queen's and a pissing match ensues
2) Defend Canadian recruiting whenever it comes up
3) Go to a non-target Canadian school (can't think of a worse fate) and dream of making it big at RBC
but none of them seem to realize that no one cares about Canada. Can someone make a BayStreetOasis.ca so I don't have to read about some kid in Saskatchewan who wants to make it big...in Calgary.





So you created a new username
So you created a new username for an anonymous board just to make backhanded comments towards Canadians. Check out the balls on this guy!
Like with all other posts that come up often - 'rank these banks', 'which target school reigns supreme', if you don't like it, don't read it.
While I enjoyed your
While I enjoyed your categorization and find it pretty accurate, there really are not a disproportionate number of Canadians on this site. Luckily, we always mention Canada in the thread title so you know what you are getting into ahead of time. So instead of making baystreetoasis.ca, why don't you stop clicking on the 1 out of every 50/100 threads relating to Canada.

Wow this is an asinine post
Wow this is an asinine post OP...
Full Disclosure: I'm a Canadian from a one of 1) and I work in your beloved United States.
However, there is no difference between 1) and the pissing matches between every debatable ordered pair of US Schools (Ross vs. McIntire, NYU vs. Wharton). It's annoying, it's puerile but it's the reality of the internet. Deal with it.
Non-target pipe dreamers in Canada are no different that non-target pipe dreamers from your 10 billion shitty schools in the US that accompany your 50 good ones. People like to hope that they can "succeed" and "get rich", it's what drives the world's socio-economic evolutionary drive; if we ever lose that freedom to pipe dream, we're shit outta luck as a society.
And buddy, noone cares about Arkansas, Mississipi, North Dakota or any of your other 3rd-world-quality-of-life states, but we listen and we comment because this is a forum where advice is given [or supposed to be].
So in conclusion, shut the fuck and up and stop being bitter your sad little life sucks and you have to make up a new internet pseudonym just to point out that you're an ignoramus.

Fucking love the Canadian guys on here. Keep working towards those "shitty" jobs in Calgary, at least you'll have a job and can laugh at this twat when he gets fired from his retail teller position at Wells Fargo.

No, we just hate ignorance and stupidity.

It does seem like there are a good number of Canadians on here - at least active posters. I don't know/work with any Canadians, and it seems somewhat disproportionate to me as well.
Canada is one of the few
Canada is one of the few countries in the world with a sustainably growing economy. Lots of natural resources, agricultural productivity, and open space. It's biggest problem really is the obnoxious neighbors to the south.

Not in a negative way, but
Not in a negative way, but there are most definitely a disproportionate number of canadians on this site. The only reason I know anything about any Canadian school is because of the amount of threads I've read. And no, almost none of then have "Canada" in the title. Again, not a bad thing, but it's definitely very noticeable.
Unless achieving
Unless achieving prestige-baller-BSD status is what you're concerned with, I find that posts originated by Canadian users are far more intelligent and useful than posts by Americans.
There is definitely a disproportionate number of douchebag posts by Americans.

Replace American with Canadian and it sounds right.
Americans who say Canadians are less obnoxious/ignorant/etc than Americans have never actually lived in Canada lol.
