Random fact - Canada and Australia both have higher foreign born proportions - http://www.statcan.gc.ca/daily-quotidien/071204/dq071204a-eng.htm http://www.statcan.gc.ca/daily-quotidien/071204/dq071204a-en.... The article seems to phrase things specifically to not mention them.
- randallsquared 17y agoNeither Canada nor Australia have as much population as Mexico City. The article author could be forgiven for overlooking them. Edit: actually, it appears that the official figure for the Mexico City metro is 21M; I'd thought it was over 30M. Still true for Australia, though. :)
- ojbyrne 17y agoIt still weakens the author's thesis, and the paragraph talking about the comparison to other major countries doesn't read like he overlooked them, more like he deliberately omitted them. EDIT: I actually read the whole article now, and he actually mentions Canada and Australia as threats to the US near the end.
