,.but yeah, I'd say the reason is that the numbers just aren't the same. You've got the NPC in the States...you've also got better access to better drugs. That right there sez a lot.

But, yeah, nowadays it's harder to find one. The reason might be the sheer number of bodybuilders in the US. There are probably more competitive bodybuilders in LA than in all of Canada... greater number of competitors = increased chance of finding a phenom.

Post by: Canuck on August 30, 2007, 09:04:45 PM: Well since Canada has a smaller population then California (Greater LA almost has us beat) I could say it is a numbers game, but the real reason is that the damn Polar Bears eat all the really good ones every time we try to get a Muscle Beach started.

Dillet and Henderson Thorn are the only two that actually did something and placed in the top 10 in there respective hey days. Kovacs, Scott Milne, Nelson DaSilva and Art Dilks did absolutely fuck all because their egso's got ahead of their training.
