This is the CBC story from the Regina Coronation Park & Democrats Abroad US Election viewing party last Tuesday. (You can also play “spot the Jason” and “spot the Shea” in the background of a few shots.)

Cool idea but not too many surprises on this list – the science sub-reddit is really high (just shy of grade 9 level) and the one for people who smoke pot is really low (just shy of grade 5 level). Also nice to see /r/atheism come in as one of the top three most advanced […]
