53. Canadians aren't over the top and punishment obsessed
like Americans and particularly Texans.

One reason why they don't have the world's largest, most expensive- and growing prison system.

Show someone a Fox news story designed to rile them up- and DU'ers will inevitably go off the deep end and oblige.

Same reason why the nation was so gung ho to get conned into Iraq- and it's why torture's become acceptible.
