    I got 19 right and basically hadn't heard of the other 20 cities. Love to see what our friends in the Great White North would score ...

    I had never heard of Stratford, PEI. It's the THIRD largest municipality in the province and it's got 7,000 souls.

    Didn't even think of Lunenburg as the 3rd largest in Nova Scotia.

    Missed a few others, mostly in the NWT & Nunavut.

    And then there's the whole "St. John" vs "St. John's" conundrum.

    Got 24. Had no luck with BC after Vancouver, drew a total blank on Nunavut. Took forever to think of the third largest in Ontario even though I'm sitting no more than a mile north of it. Never heard of Stratford PEI.

    I only got Mississagua because once, when I played one of the NHL games on PS2, I moved the Senators from Ottawa to Mississagua and called them Dolphins, complete with a dolphin screech every time the team scored a goal.

    Yes, I'm a dork.

    That would still be better than the IceDogs when they played there.

    Sirs, Madames,

    24 ... didn't get Mount Pearl even though I've been there. Victoria not being there threw me. Thought Gatineau would be there.

    I didn't get CBS and that used to be the HIV capital of Canada, back in the day.
