[@kyrap5385]

As a Canadian, it was very interesting to watch someone who doesn't know the context of the street/place names! Atlantic Canada is generally the Maritime provinces. The Algonquin are a Canadian First Nations people, and the Red River is a river in Manitoba but also refers to the Red River Settlement of Métis people (another aboriginal group - for non-Canadians). "Thunder Bay is near Toronto" was hilarious, and the French in Quebec immediately jumped out. We also tend to have both English and French on many things, including school buses. "RGE" is Range Road, not Ridge Road. The "marks" on the road are actually filled-in cracks caused by the cold weather. When you asked if Peace River was a place, I actually shouted "Yes!" out loud - it is where some of my family is from, my dad actually grew up right in that area by Peace River on a farm. And as many people have mentioned, we have 10 provinces and 3 territories, NOT states! Hope that my little notes were interesting :)

Great vid. A little tip for Canada: if you ever see a sign for "The Beer Store" or the "LCBO", you are in Ontario. Both are Ontario government-owned alcohol stores. You can buy alcohol in grocery stores or whatever, but there are no dedicated liquor stores in the province except The Beer Store and LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario). Both stores are very likely to be in most Ontario cities (even fairly small ones) so it is a good thing to look out for in Canada.

If you see french-only road signs, you are automatically in Québec. If it's in both english and french, it's usually because you are in a city bordering Québec, like Ottawa. Québec storefronts also by law have to be predominantly written in french. You'll see lots of bilingual signs, but french has to be upfront.

[@LiTTleGaBi21]

New Brunswick also has french.

As usual,english-speaking communities in Quebec are ignored, not enough novelty value to minority-of-majority populations within minority populations I suppose.There are plenty more small communities in Quebec with significant english speaking populations and/or history then there are communities in Ontario or Alberta with french speaking populations. There are bilingual stopsigns in some communities in greater Montreal and the regions of Ouatouais,Monteregie, Soulanges,Laurentides, Estrie, Cote-nord and Gaspe.

[@mike200017]

Tip on road numbers in Quebec: Odd numbered roads generally run perpendicular to the river (St-Lawrence / St-Laurent), so roughly north-south, and the numbers increase the more you go east. Even numbered roads run parallel to the river, so east-west, and increase as you go north. So, finding a particular intersection of main roads in Quebec is really easy. Anyone who has had to travel around Quebec in the pre-GPS days knows that system to locate yourself on a paper map. It's a super smart and useful system. There are other rules that are a bit less useful for geo-guessing. Like numbers below 100 are highways. 100 roads are main country roads. 200 are slightly smaller main country roads (e.g., that go through towns, at lower speed limits). And higher numbers (300, 400, 500, 600, ..) are usually a branch of a highway with the same lower numbers (e.g., the 440 would be an auxiliary branch of highway 40, in this particular case, the 440 is a section of highway within the city of Quebec that merges with highway 40 once you get out of the downtown area).

Mi'kmaqs presumably named the area thus because the shoreline juts out into the Minas Basin at what is now known as Economy Point. East of this point marks the beginning of Cobequid Bay. Mi'kmaqs hunted and gathered throughout the region for thousands of years prior to the settlement of Acadian families in the Economy area."

Ah yes, saskatoon. A province where you could watch your dog run from home for a week straight.

@@jxavier3876 I know, but a lot of people from Ontario call it Saskatoon cause it simpler to say.

Rural roads in western Canada are usually divided range and township roads, the numbers are in order.

[@jgroenveld1268]

Never been to Canada but I learnt things like looking at the language used on road signs, highway shield designs, colour of hydrants, how the traffic lights are oriented. etc not totally foolproof but random things you learn when you play the game.

The Algonquin are an indigenous people situated in and around the area of Ontario

[@hbowman108]

"Algonquin" is an entire family of Native American languages, stretching along the Atlantic from North Carolina to Labrador and from there west to Alberta. A major subgroup is "Anishnaabe" which is the major languages of Quebec and Ontario like Ojibwa and Cree. Anishnaabe languages provide common material for US and Canadian place names, including the river name "Mississippi". The last part of that is "river", as in, for instance, the town "Chisasibi" at the northernmost roadhead in Quebec on James Bay.

I got one in Apex, just outside of Iqaluit, and the streetview network isn't connected to Iqaluit. No information about where it is from streetview, besides snow, ocean, and cold.
