If you're Canadian and your BMI is coming out all wacky in Wii Fit, one of two things could be responsible:

1. Tim Hortons
2. You've entered your weight in kilograms.

Wii Fit, it turns out, continues to use the imperial measurements more common in the U.S. even if you've set your Wii's location to Canada. This could cause some confusion to those who didn't notice, and annoyance to those who did and have been forced to convert their familiar height and weight measurements to the crazy moon system we use. Setting your language to Spanish or French ameliorates this issue, but adds the obvious complication.
