Talk:Are You Smarter than a Canadian 5th Grader?

Question

why only 5 shows? -- 172.130.152.221 (talk), 26 December 2008, 20:38 (UTC)

Do you mean: "Why only 5 episodes?". If yes, I suppose it was for testing if the show would be popular before starting the big production. This is only my idea, let see what others think about this. -- Jimmy Lavoie^talk on 26 December 2008 @ 10.25PM (GMT-5)

Errors

Since the "official website" link on this article does not work, I am unable to submit feedback to the show itself.

On the show (re)broadcast on April 17, 2009, the contestant is asked in which group of islands "true north" is located. The show claims that B, The Queen Elizabeth Islands, is correct.

According to Wikipedia, true north is just that, the North Pole where the lines of longitude converge and the earth's figurative rotational axis emerges. Therefore, the program's question should have been, in which group of islands "magnetic north" is located.

The show and the contestant and the panel of students FLUNK!!! I, among others, am smarter than these Canadian 5th Graders. GBC (talk) 02:23, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
