You may not like the idea of people living on top of others, but the urban lifestyle far outstrips the rural lifestyle in most measurable health statistics -- especially in British Columbia where there are more smokers, obesity, diabetes and heart attacks in Northern BC versus the South.

The activity options provided by the metropolis standard also outstrips those of most rural areas, where -- sure -- you can go out and hunt, go out and hike and go to an isolated lake, but your options start to run dry from there... not that you'll be dry.

But there is a nation where population control is already in effect: China. If that's a nation you'd like to in well then Zàijiàn punk.
