The gravity anomaly grid of Canada shows variations in the gravity field caused by lateral variations in the density of the Earth's crust and upper mantle that reflect variations in composition and thickness. Systematic gravity mapping began in Canada in 1944 and is ongoing. All data are tied to the International Gravity Standardization Network 1971. Local gravity anomalies result from the juxtaposition of relatively high- and low-density rock types. Longer wavelength anomalies such as the gravity low over the Cordillera and the relative gravity high over oceanic crust largely reflect variations in the thickness of the crust.
TL;DR: Canada has spots where gravity is far less then expected.
the fuck you doing to gravity SNOWBOUND!?

Soon we will be up in the sky, claiming parcels of your blood-soaked yankee land from above.
-
Definitely buy gold in that area.
-
So how much difference is there actually.
Is it like instead of falling at about 9.8 m/s, objects fall at approximately 9.7999999 m/s or is it like they fall at either 2 m/s or 200 m/s...because the latter scenario would be awesome while the former would mean that scientists have given me another reason to never take them seriously.

Leo actually poses an interesting question...
Oh no... I said words of cu-
*asplodes*

Actually, the relative gravity wells indicate where we bury our politicians.
Nice to see Helms-Burton make a comeback. Canada still holds the deeds to the first 13 states, the land itself was left to the traitors.

The data used to compile this grid consist of approximately 678 000 gravity observations, including 165 000 on land, acquired between 1944 and 2003. The data spacing ranges from less than 1 km to over 20 km, with an average spacing between 5 and 10 km. All measurements were reduced to the IGSN71 datum. Theoretical gravity values were calculated from the Geodetic Reference System 1980 (GRS80) gravity formula. The observation's coordinates are referred to NAD83. Bouguer anomalies were calculated using a vertical gravity gradient of 0.3086 mGal·m-1 and a crustal density of 2 670 kg·m-3. Areas on land are represented by Bouguer anomalies and areas offshore, by free-air anomalies. The data were gridded to a 2 km interval, with a blanking radius of 20 km.
tl;dr this tells you nothing about anything other then how the data was collected. It just looks super sciencey.
i honestly cant find how much difference there actually is. I did however, neglect to let you know, This 'issue' has been figured out http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/missing-gravity.htm (http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/missing-gravity.htm) . Apparently its just the earth got pushed down by a glacier or something a long long time ago, so there is less mass there to pull on stuff.
Also, I'm willing to bet that gold is weighed by mass not 'weight' so 2 oz would be the same no matter where you were so long as there is a reasonable amount of gravity.

A deep gravity well and a concentration of gold would indicate Brian Mulroney's burial plot.

Since canada is having gravity problems, I'll let them in on a secret:
m1*m2
F= G ---------------

Hopefully this helps.

actually, this is more accurate, just saying. then again, perhaps they tried to do the math here but forgot to carry a 1 or something... it is pretty complicated stuff (for Canada's mathematicians anyhow)

Read first reply, and hide your children.

Neither of these equations take into account the tangential force created by Canadian politicians.
-
My equation is the equation for the force of gravity...
Thus, if they apply it, they can fix their problem.
BTW, how do glaciers cause gravity to change? Methinks canadian mooseshit... (since they don't have bulls)

The effect of Canadian politicians is negligible.

You have obviously never skirted with the event horizon of a Canadian politician. I ran into Brian Mulrooney in the street once - rather he ran into me while I was horsing around with some friends on the back of a statue of an elk - rather elking around with some friends making horses's asses out of ourselves. Yes a statue of an elk. It is Canada. Anyhow, I felt the air drain from my lungs as he approached, and wit escape me as I invited him up to join us. He did not, but seemed to appreciate the offer. A few years later I found myself in Paul Martin's home for a little Liberal party gathering (I am not a Liberal, but the chick I was doing at the time was, and a well connected one at that - and liberals are MUCH more oral). At that event I thought myself lucky to escape with my soul. Yes a force so strong even souls can't escape them.
