Canada has a Buzz going on...

Canada has a Buzz going on...

-. = ¥ Canada Rocks!


Javier shared some interesting numbers today in a comment on John Vaughan's recent post on the % of Producer Posts by country.

I took the numbers and correlated them to the population size of the respective countries.

_______________________________________________________________________

Canada is producing 7% of the Producer posts with just 1,859 bees

Spain has 4,530,189 bees and 30% of the posts

The USA has 148,173 bees and 23% of the posts

We are less than 2% of the population of the US bees & 0.001% of the Spanish bees.

Perhaps we should be shipping poutine, great beer, and maple syrup to the other bees?


* To see how many bees there are per country, to to the 'Bees' tab, then click on the 'Country' Pull Down menu.

Hmmmm. All the comments are laced with fun amd humor. ..and I presume that Canucks can pen down more comedies to make beBees bees cheery and popularize beBee to make it more freaking awesome. :)

John Vaughan, your contribution to beBee marketing is also huge. Once again I will point out that you are a great beBee advocate marketer and passionate supporter. Customer advocacy business model and advocate marketing are unified and tightly coupled in this case.

One look at the development of the Canadian tech sectors speaks volumes why the infrastructure in Canada is conducive to greater participation. A July 2016 Brookfield Institute Report is one example http://brookfieldinstitute.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/The-State-of-Canadas-Tech-Sector-2016-V2.pdf Couple that with education, demographics and a different attitude to media (while Canada's media can vastly improve, American news media pails in comparison with depth/diversity of news story coverage) and then there is the case for Canada, articulated by media outlets such as Vox in their July 2016 story http://www.vox.com/2014/7/1/5843316/the-case-for-canada - and where American media like Vox succeeds, Canadians with a greater degree of connection have more access options and engage commensurately at a higher rate (rural areas are still lagging) as detailed by CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) making Canada 2nd to the UK in the G9 country ranks for Internet penetration https://cira.ca/factbook/2015/the-canadian-internet.html

It's too bad the election is over Randy. Now we are going to have to come and invade Florida again as the weather cools.

The answer is quite simple. The U.S. election generated a lot of hot air from the north. That's why it's still 60 degrees Fahrenheit in Chicago.

#21 So... let's ask the question... If we are approximately 10% the population of the US, shouldn't the beBee population be representative? What needs to be done to attract more Canadians to beBee? The fact that they are more productive per capita is inconsequential to this question.

Perhaps you could post more cat photos Don (now that you have all the ingredients at home)? Would that increase the adoption rate?

Graham Edwards You are genuinely on to something here. Penetration in Canada is a little off kilter. We have just slightly more members than Romania, Belgium and the UAE.

I hear long, cold winters can cause freezing of the brain, causing citizesn of other nations to attribute a diagnosis of insanity to the citizens of Norway and other countries that have such long, cold, winters.... Oh wait!!!!

Kevin, the election of Don "Grab 'em by the ...." Trump is already providing a lot of incentive to do so.

Yes, Graham, that is one way of looking at it. The other is that Canucks don't have much else to occupy their minds whilst being snowed in 11 months of the year. Frozen wastelands, and all that. :-)

I'm not a stats guy, but that looks pretty freakin awesome, I think.

That's a good way to approach it Graham Edwards... If we had 14,440 more bees, we'd blow the other stats out of the water. I'll leave it to someone else to calculate the PPRPC (Producer Production Ratio Per Capita) of a Canadian vs other countries. Just an afterthought... I wonder what the skew would be should we ever entice Phil Friedman to come back to Canada?
