Brief confession

[aberrantangels]

As I mention elsewhere, I added DC to the list because I've lived there and felt it wasn't fair on the District to be left off. If people want to add Puerto Rico, they can.

And I'm going to implement, because I know thessalian will get use out of it, a list of Canadian provinces and territories:

1) Alberta
2) British Columbia
3) Manitoba
4) New Brunswick (thanks, turbov21, and thanks for the thought, thessalian
5) Newfoundland
6) Northwest Territory
7) Nova Scotia
8) Nunavut Territory (thanks, etherlad
9) Ontario
10) Prince Edward Island
11) Quebec
12) Saskatchewan
13) Yukon Territory

Northwest Territories got split into the Northwest Territories (the western half) and Nunavut.

There was a lot of discussion over that - if they were calling one half Nunavut, what were they going to call the other half? My favorite choices were "Alluvut" or "The Restuvut."

But they stuck with NWT. Oh, well. (:

As an aside, although your list is technically correct, Newfoundland is usually tied in with Labrador in one go. So "Newfoundland & Labrador." But that's nitpicketty.

Can I metaquote you on that? 8-)
