Native Tribes in Canada: “Hey can you give back the rest then?”
Canada: “Lol”
Could have just included the Ontario part snd Vancouver Island and it would still be true lol.

They’re not Canadian. They’re Quebecois, remember?
There are 4 variations on the word but none end in -le.

They “reappropriated”, and re-wrote, a ton of french words. As is their right, because all words are made up anyway

As was explained in the link I provided.
“Tabarnak” (or its variants) is a Quebecois French swear word. In essence, it’s a profanity that derives its power from its connection to the Catholic Church. The word is derived from “tabernacle,” which in the Catholic faith is the sacred vessel that contains the consecrated host, representing the body of Christ. In Quebec, where Catholicism once held significant sway over society, the word “Tabarnak” has evolved into a potent exclamation, used to express a range of emotions, from anger and frustration to astonishment and awe.

Quebec =/=Utah.
Just outline the GTA and call it a day.
Vancouver is not on Vancouver Island.
According to whose geography?
? It’s just a fact. The urban agglomeration commonly known as Vancouver (any of them) is not on the large, west-coast island known as Vancouver island.
I suspect you’re trolling.
I am. It is a post about truncate Canada geography after all.
However, being myself not versed in north-american geography, I’ve only learned today that there was such a thing as a Vancouver island.Ah, okay, sorry. It’s the one on the west end of this map. The city of 3 million called Vancouver is just across the channel on the mainland. The same English navy captain charted them both, which is where the name comes from.
The places I’ve heard of on the island are Victoria, Tofino and Nanaimo, but those aren’t very large centers, and if you include them then you have to include all the prairie cities as well. The rest is covered in mountains, temperate rainforest and retired British expats.
The real anarchy would be to make Canadians live anywhere BUT what’s on the map
I’m a Canadian and I would have to drive ~8 hours to end up on that map.
IIRC one of the 19th century presidents basically campaigned on that, at least as far as the western side was concerned.
54/40 or fight!
Apparently Polk never actually campaigned on it, though; it was just around the same time. It seems the British version was going down to the 42nd parallel, and the actual result of the 49th is pleasingly near the midpoint.
They’re gonna have to take that ocean pearl out of my cold, dead hands.
As someone who is not living in this map, please no I like it here.
it would be, no internet.
Excellent. I’m cut out from there so I can make my own country.
I think that if climate change causes a lot of snow in the north to melt, it will create a lot of new arable space further north that people could potentially migrate to (even from other countries, eg climate migrants from the inhabitable equator)
(disclaimer: never been to Canada)
We’ve been choked by forest fire smoke every summer for a few years now. I hear some of the boreal forest that burned down is coming back as plains. Also, interestingly, we never stopped clearing new farmland around the high 50’s of latitude.
It’s really noticeable already as far north as I am. People will talk about how freakish the weather has been here, and then suddenly get quiet if anyone says “climate” instead of “weather” because it’s oil country and they still want to be on the denier train. Man, humanity is depressing sometimes.
The flip side is that the traditional breadbasket areas in the center-west of this strip are basically turning into desert.
I feel bad for them. They’ve got a shit lot in that they know they’re causing damage and they could stem that tide, but in doing so would have to give up what they know and have poured their lives into so far.
Not everyone’s ready to sacrifice their comfort or livelihoods for others and jump when there’s no guarantee they’ll be caught by the social safety net.
There will always be someone desperate and ready to deny the truth of their surroundings to fill the gap left, though.
That’s big of you. I can sympathise with someone who’s doing bad things, but when they’re intellectually dishonest about it as well I start feeling like glassing everything and letting life start over.
It’s just so damn hopeless. If that’s the level we’re at the atrocities will never stop, and we’ll keep blaming the other guy for it.
I don’t think I’ve ever noticed BC’s cute lil wiener till now.
Canada looks like a shit gun.
It’s Legendary though and will cost you $1867 to unlock.
I was thinking a gun from warframe
Do you hear that, Randy? The Americans cocked the shit gun
Canada is the north side of the st. Lawrence river, everything else is just that area’s backyard
Whitespace pride! (Okay, only by a bit in my case. I wonder if we have any Yellowknifers)
Also the whole East Coast
Oh shit, Newfoundland left again and took NS, PEI and maybe NB with them. I didn’t even notice.
Still in the provinces, but technically northern Canada here! There’s like at least 2 or 3 other people living up here!
Wow, maybe even 3! /s
