TIME to chill out, eh?

So the March 12 TIME Canada got a little over-enthusiastic in its canuckitiness, or a little paranoid of CRTC censors, or something...



What stands out? (Yeah, I kind of spoiled the search.)

See, the thing is, when I'm on the Dufferin bus, and not next to my calculator, even if I do vaguely know that an inch is about 2.54 cm, and that 180 cm is roughly six feet, what the fuck is 170 cm supposed to mean to me in two seconds or less? Or ever? Is it tall or short? How many centimetres is Stephen Harper anyway? What kind of a headline is that? How many Canadians would actually understand what this headline is saying? I didn't! And I'm young! (And patriotic enough to spell metre just so.) And how many Canadian magazines would print a howler like that? I'm guessing none. So there you have it.

(I checked, and yes, in the American TIME, it's written right; the deck isn't given, but it's there in paragraph four. Ps, my roommate thinks the vegan mention is weird too. He had veal tonight...)
