The map would be too crowded with many more.

Looking at size and fame, I was thinking that Moncton, Saskatoon, Hamilton, Kitchener/Waterloo, Tremblant, Banff...might all be on there...

What about funny ones like: Ball's Falls, Head-Smashed-In-Buffalo-Jump, Saint-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!, Dildo, Climax, Big Beaver or Swastika (who voted to keep their name after WW2 cus "We had it first")... :)

Not everyone allways do the things they know they would get 100% for... You would learn nothing new that way.

sports(people) is something I wouldnt do for fun, I dont know anything there and am not interested in knowing and I dont really see the point, cause it is different in 10 years again.

this one I took especially to see what I would score and new it wouldnt be great, but thought it was time I DID know where some of the most known ones are.

Nice quiz. However, I think they should have added Saskatoon, Inuvik and Kamloops. The north of this maps is very desolate-looking and British Columbia and Sakatchewan are empty, for the most part.

Ok, it is confirmed... I know absolutely nothing about canadian geography. My first guess was iqualit being something very northern because it seemed a more native name. And the one on the isalnd seemed a little less accesible, so seemed like the best guess and I was right..

Other than that I guessed thunder bay for anything that could be a bay ( and got it on the last one..) And knew toronto, vancouver, montreal and ottowa would be south and perhaps central and or on water ( didnt help me get them though..)

Dont feel bad though, I dont know the geography of any country :D All the countries thát I do know, but when it comes to cities....(or regions)

Could we consider maybe adding Prince George, British Columbia? I'm not entirely unbiased because it's in my area, but it's commonly referred to as BC's northern capital and serves as a hub to basically the entire northern half of the province. It's certainly more important to its region than some cities currently on the quiz (cough Sault St Marie cough). Additionally, Northern BC looks pretty empty on the quiz.

Also, Saskatoon is a major city... it might be too close to Regina for a clean quiz, though.

Something cool I learned recently is that my Biochem professor's brother lives in Yellowknife! While I don't personally know him, my professor has told a lot of stories about him. It's an area that is still very heavily influenced by Dene culture, a First Nations group living in the Subarctic. Apparently, they are big on communal living. A lot of people (including non-Dene people) in the city share food, especially meat, from a single source/animal and live in each other's houses. Also interesting is that the Dene are closely related to the Navajo--they likely have the same ancestors and still speak mutually intelligible (or almost mutually intelligible at least) languages!

Anyways, that's my fun fact for the day.
