"There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who have peed in a pool. And those who lie about it."
In this case, I am suggesting that if you survey some large group of Canadians, and 58% admit to peeing in a pool, there is also some non-trivial number of Canadians surveyed who have peed in a pool, but will not admit it to you.
Maybe not 42%, but also maybe not 2%.

And why, when chlorine was used as a chemical weapon in warfare, it wasn't as a chlorine-urine binary agent.
