FNGD Q2 09-01-16; CANADIAN, ACTUALLY

#1 Post by etaoin22 » Fri Jan 16, 2009 9:50 pm

Q2 - ACTUALLY, CANADIAN

B - Name a Canadian provincial capital, in which the provincial parliament buildings lie east of Yonge St. in Toronto. (my half of the country)

G - Name a Canadian provincial capital, in which the provincial parliament buildings lie west of Yonge St. in Toronto (Saucy's half of the country).

(To paraphrase Rich Little). Then there's half of the country for Ellen.
I will give an extra point for a particular correct answer, won't say which one.

I will implore all Canadians to accept my most sincere apologies for my particular kind of oopsie, above.

I was misinformed at an early age, or maybe I wasn't listening closely at some vital moment.

Wait a minute - let me change it!

The Parliament buildings in Toronto are west of Yonge St.

Sooo - my answer would be Toronto for west and Quebec City for east.

Well heck, just add me in if you're apologizing. I know so little about Canada, it's pathetic! I've only visited
Ellen's side - I wanted to say Ottawa - there are some gorgeous buildings there - but I was sure that would
be wrong.

My head hurts - and I do not know anything much about Canada - Halifax?

G - Name a Canadian provincial capital, in which the provincial parliament buildings lie west of Yonge St. in Toronto (Saucy's half of the country).

Same thing - Victoria?
