Canadian Geography

In this CBC news article, Canadian Alliance MP Peter Goldring is pushing once again for Canada to annex the Turks and Caicos islands in the Caribbean as our 11th province. The islands are west of Cuba and north of Haiti. Sounds good to me—fun in the tropical sun without needing a passport.

In other (probably unrelated) news, the American travel guide folks at Fodor’s, for $600,000, published a magazine for the Canadian Tourism Commission. Several cities and a couple of provinces were left off the map while other names were misspelled. Look for the special fall errata issue!
