Now I can take this artcile about freezing rain and say

http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1102418107382&call_pageid=968332188492&col=968793972154&DPL=IvsNDS%2f7ChAX&tacodalogin=yes

IS THIS ANOTHER GIMMICK BY OPPONENTS OF CANADIAN IMMIGRATION TO DISCOURAGE IMMIGRANTS FROM EVER COMING TO CANADA BY ADVERTISING THIS KIND OF WEATHER??

Really, to me its equally irrelevant.



LOL!!! Yeah, that would be enough reason for me to stay away. I hate that stuff.
But we digress from 'critical analysis' :)

WOW...................UNBELIEVABLE.........

Canada coming 3rd in Math competition ????

I am sure 90% of them would be immigrants from Asia........

I dont think Original Canadians would waste time developing their "grey cells"..............

They could get good jobs with their Accent/ skin color.......who cares about "Quadratic equation/ Laplace Transformation" ?????????

while perpetrating the same.


Would you plesae explain that, Deep? Even if 90% of the participants are Asian, they are Canadian now, aren't they? If we do not want ethnicity to ever be a factor while looking for jobs, why should we make ethnicity be a factor here?

Apparently reading skills are not necessarily a strong point for some desis.:(

A quick read of the article posted by the OP will indicate that this was not some sort of competition. Rather it was an assessment of math and other skills.

Canada's sample size was 28,000 students

The best results were from Alberta rather than Ontario (which is the primary destination for new immigrants).

Deep, you'd do well to explain how you determined your 90% statement :cheers:

Conspiracy by the Finland’s department of immigration in conjunction with the OECD to get more people to immigrate to Finland.;)

:h Heck on second thoughts, maybe Finland has lots of Asian immigrants, and they included all of them in the study..........
