	I'm Canadian, so it'd be rather sad if I didn't get all of these.

	so Mr. Negative, do you regularly wear hats that are bigger than you are?

	D'oh gave up before getting to PEI. Nunavut didn't exost when I was in school. I had no shot at that one.

	JoeFish:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 19:58 GMT	9 points
	SafetyBear, his hat is bigger but 50% of it lives within 50 miles of his head. Also it's about 20 or 30 times less densely populated. But it doesn't have as many geese or beavers probably. So I guess it's even

	you dont get DC as a bonus for the american one, why ottawa for this?

	weizenugb:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:15 GMT	18 points
	Ottawa isn't a capital of a province, why should it be a bonus?

	fatfifer:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:17 GMT	8 points
	bah! i didnt but "city" on the end of Quebec, then moved on. couldnt spell Iqaluit!

	Kicking222:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:24 GMT	5 points
	I should really go to Canada- I've only been there once, and that was ten years ago, even though I live less than six hours (and have previously lived 3 1/2 hours) away from it. The one time I went was lovely, though- Quebec (City) is a beautiful place. What was the point of this? Oh yeah, I got seven.

	...I thought that we could name them in any order for a minute. I was going crazy trying to figure out why half of what I typed wasn't working. 13/13

	shoredude2:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:35 GMT	8 points
	12/13. I missed Yukon. Not bad for an American.

	johnlk:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:47 GMT	11 points
	"Quebec" ought to be acceptable - the city is just called "Quebec".

	SafetyBear:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 20:58 GMT	8 points
	oh sorry JoeFish, I didn't realize we measure hat size by population density now. good to know.

	@Mr. Negative you wear hats that have world power. Where can I get me one of those?

	Kicking222:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 21:23 GMT	6 points
	@chumley, yeah, I feel like that's something you'd acquire for completing a particularly difficult quest in the next "The Legend of Zelda".

	SafetyBear:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 21:48 GMT	9 points
	@Mr. Negative. Okay I'm not that stupid, I'm not going to claim that Canada has more world power/importance than the states. But your comment about canada being America's hat seemed to be a mostly geographically based joke, therefore my reply was similarly so.

	Oh, and I'm shocked at the lack of 'Regina' jokes, especially from Mr. Negative and Dirty Kash...maturity abounds.

	Patteroast:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 22:07 GMT	4 points
	So glad to finally see this quiz. Been wanting it since the provinces one. :)

	vyllym:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 22:08 GMT	-1 points
	@zalagreensbury try twice that population, and yeah, we need more regina jokes. i hate that city. smells like it sounds.

	Lean:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 22:09 GMT	4 points
	@zalagreensbury, not quite sure where you got your population information, but it's closer to 33 million. Still, a lot of wasted space, but you're welcome to move to the Arctic-I sure won't!

	As a kid, I always felt lucky that we only needed to learn the names and capitals of 10 provinces and two territories (Nunavut wasn't one back then yet), whereas our neighbours to the south had a whopping 50 states and capitals to go through. (Although, now with Sporcle's help, I can definitely tackle the 50 states and capitals, too.)

	SafetyBear:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 22:16 GMT	0 points
	okay then, good to know.

	yay nunavut. or the states could be our shoes... whichever really.

	DonnyB:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:09 GMT	-1 points
	4/13. If they don't have a hockey team, I pretty much had no chance. As an American, I'm a little alarmed at how few I got.

	newenglander:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:18 GMT	3 points
	@zalagreensbury: you probably heard it wrong, or history channel is wrong. just because it has a copyright doesnt mean its correct. but canada definitely has at least 30 million people.

	btroup1:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:34 GMT	4 points
	Jeopardy had it at 30 mill, and Trebek is Canadian.

	Brandon:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:36 GMT	4 points
	um, well, the fact that you were watching the history channel could be the problem. empahsis on the history part

	FrenchTeacher:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:38 GMT	3 points
	Being a history teacher and all, the population is now over 34 million. 16 million of those people live within 4 areas of the country, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and the Edmonton-Calgary corridor.

	zalagreensbury:	Jun 18th, 2009 at 23:44 GMT	-2 points
	No, I believe you guys hell, google said it too I just remember hearing them say 16 million and thinking 'Wow, no one lives there' if anyone's seen a series they had called 'The States' that's when they said it during the California episode. Brandon, that was one of the dumber things to say...I guess the channel to find out about Canada or anything other country is of course 'Cartoon Newtork' wtf

	Québec (and Quebec) should be acceptable. Why isn't it so?

	Tommy_C:	Jun 19th, 2009 at 01:07 GMT	7 points
	I moved from Canada to the US 21 years ago, so I guess I'll forgive myself Iqaluit, but I'm so ashamed I missed Whitehorse as well. I've losing all my Canadian essence. I've stopped saying eh, and I hardly ever watch the NHL. I guess you can't go home again.

	rockhopperlad:	Jun 19th, 2009 at 01:29 GMT	5 points
	I'd have gotten them all if I could spell Iqaluit! :)
