Geoguessr - Canada 3 minutes per round - Country Spotlight #5

[@JonFromRhodeIsland]

Nice job. A couple of comments: 1. Learning Canadian area codes is worth the effort. There aren’t that many. The area code 403 on the sign in round 1 tips you off that you’re near Calgary. 2. New Brunswick and PEI are the only provinces with bilingual road signs. In addition to “STOP ARRET” you’ll also see “Ch ___ Rd” and “Rue ____ St” on street signs. 3. Quebec is very diligent about signing route numbers. Finding a main road is always your best bet. 4. The sign in the last round actually said 22 km, i think you were mistaking a bolt for a 1.

Thanks so much for the tips! #4 makes a lot of sense, thankfully i figured that 221 km couldn't be right haha

[@Benjiefrenzy]

NB is the only bilingual province. PEI is English.

[@amelieparent4981]

PEI doesn't have bilingual signs

[@danc1513]

Some places in Ontario will have bilingual signs if there's a significant french population. Ottawa signs will often be bilingual.

[@Ea-Nasir_Copper_Co]

You'll also see bilingual street signs in southeast Winnipeg. It'll look like "ch St. Mary's Rd" or "boul Sunset Blvd". If the stop signs are bilingual you're in St. Boniface, if unilingual English St. Vital.

watching this again after a year and still it's so much fun

[@jxavier3876]

First place :) got really lucky finding the highways in NB quickly and on the last one i scoped out the town just from looking on the map with only 15 or so seconds left. I live in alberta so the rounds around there i had some insider knowledge. It was helpful to know that Ontario, Manitoba, BC, and NB (until 2019) have front plates while the other provinces do not. Look forward to more canadian content. :)

I’m in NB! Thank you for pronouncing Quebec properly haha

[@sunfis]

People pronounce it wrong? I- it’s so simple

[@chloegrills1638]

@@sunfis A lot of people pronounce the Que like in queen and not a hard C sound like it should be. It just annoys french people when people do that 😂

[@sunfis]

@@chloegrills1638 dang. I live all the way in BC and we were still taught how to pronounce it right.

[@chloegrills1638]

@@sunfis oh cool! I lived out there for a few years haha. Good to know they are teaching the correct way lol

[@bdeg1234]

If the signs says "ch" xxx name "rd" it's bilingual. Ch = chemin
