Well, let's assume that this poll is a decent indicator of the overall population by way of averages (an amusing and most likely incorrect assumption..but for fun...) then:
Let's grab some numbers.
Canada: pop. 34,482,779
US: pop. 311,591,917
UK: pop. 62,641,000
So.....on to the fun bit.
"Human Beings evolved etc etc etc..."
Canada: 21,034,495
US: 109,057,170
UK: 42,595,880
Well, well, roughly 5 times as many Americans managed to pay attention in highschool biology as Canadians, and twice as many as our very special friends across the Atlantic. The flipside being that we have a vastly larger number of people who didn't. Nevertheless, I hereby propose that the US is better educated on the subject than either Canada or the UK by brute force of sheer numbers....
Amurika! Fuck Yeah!
