well I know the provincial capitals, and territorial capitals all off the top of my head, going west to east or east to west.
NF - St John's
NS - Halifax
PE - Charlottetown
NB - Freddy-ton
PQ - Quebec City
ON - Trawanna
MB - Winterpeg
SK - Regina
AB - Edmonton
BC - Victoria
NV - Iqualit
NW - Yellowknife
YK - Whitehorse
I dunno if I like the capital being in the largest most propserous city or not. Some provinces it's the most prosperous because it's the capital (gov't concentration there) others it's quietly doing the work in the background.
Should Calgary be the captial? I don't see why you should bother changing it. It'd cost an arm and a leg (mind you if any province could afford it...)
Might be better to have it in Red Deer, inbetween the two cities with the fragile egos :P

I would hope most Canadians know this as well. It was taught to me in grade 7. I am a bit of a geography buff so I know all 50 States capitals too ... B-)

I didn't know the Capital of NV to be honest. Other ones are quite obvious. [/b][/quote]
Carson City. One of four state capitals that end with "City". Can you name the other 3?
