    It’s not going to change in Canada because maps are dynamic. Borders aren’t recognized the same way everywhere, and names aren’t the same everywhere; therefore map providers render the map as it is recognized in the viewer’s location.

      This is Google dot ca from last night. I’m curious if the map app behaves differently.

        Yeah I noticed, I’m not sure why they added the parentheses.
