Yesterday I tuned my TV to CBC to watch the Red Wings game since I don't get the Versus network. It turns out the game wasn't on, but this post isn't about that. I hadn't bothered to change the channel since last night, so I watched the Windsor, Canada news while I cleaned my apartment this evening. Anyways, they had a story about the swine flu but what really impressed me was the end of the story. When they cut back to the anchor, she finished the story with this (I'm paraphrasing): "Just to keep things in perspective for our viewers, there are over 9000 Canadian deaths each year from other types of the flu." For a second I was really impressed. Then I remembered that I was watching Canadian TV.
