How many illegal occupiers live in that stretch of BC coast improperly claimed by the US?

This is what it looks like if I claim to have visited PEI:

I generally imagine PEI as being more, I don't know, islandy.

I'm glad to see that Newfoundland and Labrador's finally finished filling in Ungava Bay - I thought that project would be dragging on forever. Or does that land properly revert to Nunavik, now that it's land?

I also note that by "percent" zie isn't talking about anything actually relevant, like area or population: Nunavut is way more than 7.6% of the area, and way less than 7.6% of the population. (No, I haven't been there, I just wanted to see the output.)

Is there anything to not spelling it "Québec"?

[rwpikul.livejournal.com]

Ontario, BC, Quebec, etc. also aren't countries.

(No matter how much some in Quebec want to change this.)

What are you complaining about, they names a whole new section of Canadia after you: Jamesland.

ANd it seems they ceded part of Quebec to Labrador. And what of the territories?

I always feel triumphant when someone not from the US displays a horrible knowledge of geography (the gentleman who wrote this is from the Netherlands) because the stereotype that only people from the US suck at geography is so profound. (And untrue--almost everyone sucks at geography, and in fact people from Mexico suck even worse at it than we USericans do.)
