Where is Canada, anyway?
Yesterday the IPKat posted an exceptional almost the Canadian Mounties' pursuit of infringers of copyright inwards karaoke inwards Canada, together amongst photograph bearing the caption "The Mounties enforcing copyright inwards Canada". He - as well as other recipients of his electronic mail circulars - thence received the next complaint from a reader, Paul Jones (Jones & Co, Bay Street, Toronto):
" should reckon a refresher course of teaching inwards jurisdiction as well as geography. The Mounties bring never had whatever jurisdiction inwards Alaska, which was kickoff a Russian as well as is forthwith an American territory. Perhaps it meant to write the Yukon or the Rockies?".Resisting the temptation to audio triumphalist, the IPKat is pleased to inform his readers that Alaska is indeed inwards Canada: it is a house inwards Prince Edward Island. You tin honour it past times visiting the Natural Resources of Canada Atlas site here and typing Alaska into the site search box. This Alaska is non to endure confused amongst Alaska Point, upwardly inwards the snowy reaches of Nunavut.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police function both inwards Prince Edward Island as well as inwards Nunavut, the IPKat has learned, though he has his suspicions equally to which of the ii is to a greater extent than prone to sense outbreaks of illicit karaoke.
Merpel says, what almost all the other house names stolen past times the Canadians, no uncertainty to secure payoff when it comes to geographical indications? She's thinking of York, Halifax, Edmonton, Liverpool, Shelbourne, Bridgewater, Airdrie, Surrey, Richmond, Lorraine, Stratford, Peterborough, Pembroke, Pickering ... non to advert London!
