  Like I said...if you think InterPol is dumb enough (or dishonest 
enough) to deliberately offer up false comparisions, tell *them* about 
it.  Or do you think that your theory is some sort of 'revelation'?  Are 
they going to slap themselves in the head and say "Damn!  I *knew* we 
should have been more careful..."?

  (but, in case I didn't make it clear, there is more than one source to 
state the same thing...at least while comparing Canada and the US.  Or do 
you think StatsCan and the FBI are in on this 'collusion' too?)  ;)
