I am finding the results rather interesting.

I wouldn't want to tackle the capital of all the 50 states of the USA. Too many to remember for a Canadian let alone for an American.

This is the last night in which you can respond to this poll.

Only three hours remaining for you to participate in the POLL.

What about The Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut? Are they independant governments, yet tied to Canada, or dont you view them as part of the country?

I guess you know your Canadian geography and history too!

I purposefully didn't include the territories of Canada as I thought doing only the provinces would be enough of a task.

As you have noticed the POLL has been closed since 4:30 p.m. ADT.

The answers proved out to be rather interesting, however, the majority of you did make the correct choice, therefore, each answer showing the highest precentage is the correct answer to each question.

Some of them were close though to being wrong on the higher percentage side.

Now, let us see how we all do on the other POLL that Ikan started.

I just had a quick look at the results, and it shows how quickly we read these things (especially when we think we know all the answers!) Did you know that Edmonton is spelled wrong in your poll? So, technically, you did not include the capital of Alberta ... Just kidding....

That's okay. You would think that since I have such beautiful pictures of the legislative grounds in Victoria from my honeymoon that I would have remembered that Victoria is the capital and not Vancouver... talk about a brain stop moment.

Now for the answers:

The capital of the provinces of Canada are:

1 - The capital of Newfoundland is St. John's.
2 - The capital of Nova Scotia is Halifax.
3 - The capital of Prince Edward Island is Charlottetown.
4 - The capital of New Brunswick is Fredericton.
5 - The capital of Quebec (province) is Quebec (city).
6 - The capital of Ontario is Toronto.
7 - The capital of Manitoba is Winnipeg.
8 - The capital of Saskatchewan is Regina.
9 - The capital of Alberta is Edmonton, not Edmondton.
10 - The capital of British Columbia is Victoria.

It was good for me and probably for some of you to refresh myself/ourselves on the provinces and capital cities of each of the provinces of Canada.
