Well that's just a moronic take that's just trying to be divisive for no good reason. Objectively, canada has far less useful and valuable land than the US does. There's a reason the majority of the population lives right on the border. Having more lakes isn't inherently good or bad as long as it doesn't tend too far towards either extreme and this says absolutely nothing about the countries listed other than their land area

This is very interesting. I knew Canada had far more lakes in it relative to the US, but I never would have guessed it was to the degree that would make the US the bigger country by land area. Why so many people are upset by a fun fact I will never understand

Probably a safe distance to jump. My cat would regularly jump a similar distance, albeit onto thick carpet while I was growing up. Many cats just don't have enough mass to take a ton of damage from a fall like this.
