I looked up the parallels for Bellingham Washington and Thunder Bay Ontario. Both are at the 48th parallel but Thunder Bay's sunset is at 9:46. The sunset in Bellingham is 9:00. How can that be if they're both at the same parallel? Would it be due to elevation?

Well, the answer is obvious. The earth must be flat! Also, let me tell you about how viruses aren't real and the gray space aliens control congress but the reptile aliens are even worse.

Just kidding. I'm not a retarded jew faggot. They have different elevations. Thunder Bay is much higher so has a lower horizon.

I looked that up after I left this and there's only about a couple hundred foot difference. I don't think that would make much of an impact. *Yukon brought up a good point.

What, that the earth is flat? Yeah he's right.
