Canadian Abbreviations.

Hi all.

As Canadians living here in the USA, we keep track of the (pitifally
few) LBs in Canada. I know it's probably picky to a lot of you, but
we'd really appreciate it if the site would reflect the proper
abbreviations for the 10 provinces and 3 territories...

BC - British Columbia
AB - Alberta
SK - Saskatchewan
MB - Manitoba
ON - Ontario
QC - Quebec
NB - New Brunswick
NS - Nova Scotia
PE - Prince Edward Island (PEI is still widely used)
NF - Newfoundland
YT - Yukon Territory
NW - Northwest Territories (NWT is still widely used)
NU - Nunavut

Thanks, eh?

Is NB also Nebraska? Can't wait to plant one in Nunavut! I actually thought we'd planted the first ones in Neuveau Brunswique and Acadi... erm, Nova Scotia, until I did a 'search by state/province'. Oh, well. Has anyone visited the Poutine (well, the letterbox, really) in Quebec City lately?

Nebraska is NE. Which annoys the heck out people from Nebraska when
people from 'New England' or the 'NorthEast' hijack the abbreviation
for their own diabolical purposes. =)
