This is a crude map of the northern reaches of North America (note that
the name has of the continent has not been changed yet). For the truely
Geographically Challenged (and for someone from the U.K. also Historically
Challenged) Canada occupies most of the northern portion of the 
continent, generally above the 49th parallel, but also farther south out
near the "Eastern Bums & Creeps" (a description, attributed to the
ex-mayor of Calgary Ralph Klein when "The Boom" was in progress and folks
from east of the Saskatchewan border were flooding into Alberta). The BOG
is a term of endearment used by Anglophone Canadians to help promote
unity and understanding between the inhabitants of the Bog (who *lost* the
war against the British but have forgotten about it) and those who live 
elsewhere in Canada.      

Note: In Canada we have a *Prime Minister* not a president.
      In Canada there are *Provinces* not states.
      In Alberta the mosquito is the provincial bird.
