Sorry. Since this is a grammar thread, I had to mention:

The Territories of Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut are just that. They are territories. They are NOT a province (seperately or together) of Canada.

We have 10 provinces and 3 territories. Similar to OSU, I think that the people living there would get pretty upset if you called them a province.

Just mentioning. I am not mad or anything.
