[Meta] Canadians- level with me. What's going on?

Okay, maybe this is just me. But it's been bugging me for a long time, and is one of the most persistent questions and unsolved mysteries of DPP for me in my time here.

Well over half of the female posters I've ended up talking to in PM's, whether idle chat or RP, no matter if it lasts or not, profess to be Canadian. There are a couple possibilities I see here-

  1. It could be some odd in-joke I'm not privy too.
  2. People just claim they're Canadian as some "oh, that sounds exotic enough for this kooky American, but not too foreign to scare him off" ploy.
  3. I'm just appealing to Canadians for some unknown reason, and draw them in with my prompts. Or I accidentally sound Canadian in my PM's to others, making them more likely to respond.
  4. For some reason, there actually are more Canadians, or at least Canadian ladies, on here. I've talked to other guys and one or two bi/lesbian ladies and a couple of them have also mentioned they've been having more interaction with Canadian's lately, lending credence to this.

In the case of the latter... why? Is DPP frequently recommended on Canadian-frequented sites and in daily life in the Great White North?

I suppose more generally, I'm curious if anyone else has noticed any unusual demographic quirks of their experience on DPP? (I've noticed I tend to attract partners who are much older, usually, and I've not to my knowledge RP'd much with fellow Americans, for instance.)

But really...

Canadians, what's going on?
