Arntfield, who had also served as a cop in London for 15 years, reviewed detailed notes on a number of homicides -- 32 in particular that occurred over the years in which the victims were all women or children. While several were ultimately solved, a number of others remain unsolved, and all show patterns that he was able to link together based on his own observations and other reports. He concluded that, over the years, at least six serial killers were in operation in the city, whose population at the time barely topped 200,000.

The reason London was so full of chaos and stabby mayhem was its location and environment. Called the Forest City, London is replete with trees and forested areas. Lots of cover. It's also about halfway between Toronto and Detroit, a great kind of roadside stop for maniacs, with large stretches of open country on either side that were not monitored by local police, but by provincial police. So a victim killed in London could be dumped outside of London, and unless provincial police found it and linked it to London, neither of the two law enforcement groups would have any idea the other knew anything about the case.

Most slavery in Canada involved indigenous peoples, but for the social butterflies, a black slave was considered the best of the best, and they were worth double the price of Native slaves.

Now, it's hard to say if this makes slavery better or worse in Canada, but unlike in the US, Canadian slavery was not economically driven. There were only 4,200 or so slaves in the entire region, as Canada was never able to prove to slave traders that it was economically viable to take slaves up the coast to the St. Lawrence. Instead, the slaves in Canada were nothing more than show pieces, kept for the perceived stature of simply being able to own another human being. And it wasn't merely the French aristocracy doing it -- it was in all walks of life. Anyone who could afford a slave, from blacksmiths to clergy to tailors to the military, owned slaves. The founder of Montreal's McGill University was a slave owner, as was Marguerite D'Youville, the founder of the Grey Nuns who was canonized in 1990.

Of course, slavery was eventually abolished, but the last slave auction in Lower Canada was in 1797, and Britain abolished slavery entirely -- which included all across Canada -- by the 1830s, which was just around the time the Underground Railroad was getting underway, and the perfect chance to PR-spin Canada into Disneyland for former slaves.

Most healthcare in Canada is covered, but the reason it's covered is that the country is hoping you'll either die or get better before you need to see a doctor. Probably.

In 2014, over 61,000 horses were slaughtered for meat in Canada. That may be just a drop in the bucket compared to chickens, but can you hug a chicken while you ride it and tell it your dreams?

You might remember a big scandal in Europe several years back when people found out that the beef they thought they'd been eating was actually horse. Odds are a lot of that came from Canada, since the country is the third-largest exporter of horse meat in the world, shipping out somewhere in the neighborhood of 29 million pounds of the stuff a year. That's enough to make so many majestic and adorable burgers, you don't even know.

According to official Canadian law, those adorable little white furry pups are not allowed to be clubbed to death. Instead, they have to be at least 12 days old before you bash their heads in, once they've started molting and look just barely less cute. The head is the main target because the pelts need to be kept intact for sale, which is mostly why the hunt takes place. Of course, the Humane Society of the US investigated the hunt and determined as many as 40 percent of seals sustained injuries that were not fatal, meaning the seals were probably skinned while they were still alive and responsive to pain. Despite facts like that, Canada continues to conduct the hunt every year, one of only a small handful of countries to do so.

Making the situation worse is the fact that the global market for seal products has decreased steadily for years, while Canada continues to up the quota on seals to be killed. The European market has all but collapsed at this point, and very few countries beyond Norway, Sweden, and a few others have any use for the pelts or oil that is harvested from the seals, while a handful of Asian countries will use the penises for aphrodisiacs, because nothing is sexier than the dong ripped from a helpless little flipper kitten.

Over the years -- the last school wasn't closed until 1996 -- over 150,000 First Nations, Metis, and Inuit were forced into these schools. Upwards of 3,000 (and possibly over 6,000) of those children never left. Children at these schools were made to give up their ancestral languages and speak only English. Many underwent forced sterilization and extensive physical and sexual abuse. In addition, forcible enfranchisement was par for the course, which meant any trace of Nativeness was to be scrubbed from the student, body and soul. They would read and speak English and no longer be considered Native, but proper British citizens.

Mortality rates at these schools were as high as 60 percent over five years in some cases, due to healthy children being housed with others who had tuberculosis. Many of those who made it out alive suffered long-lasting effects such as PTSD, anxiety and personality disorders, and depression. It was a massive load of shit that was instituted by the Canadian government. They've since tried to apologize, but Hallmark doesn't really make a card to cover the systemic abuse of an entire culture.
