<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt;Sticking to my &quot;same level&quot; principle, the only tri-Province points that<br/>
&gt;Canada may have are wet ones in the Gulf of St. Lawrence or the Cabot<br/>
&gt;Strait.<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>well i think we can safely rule these out<br/>
since they would require allocating or breaking the queens waters<br/>
just mentioning which is probably tantamount to treason in many places<br/>
as well as legally impossible in canada<br/>
where all coastal waters are reserved to the crown in right of canada<br/>
as a single huge federal territory<br/>
<br/>
actually this entity falls into 4 separate parcels tho<br/>
a huge atlantic to arctic one<br/>
plus a smaller pacific one<br/>
with 2 tiny pacific exclaves<br/>
<br/>
so it truly is looking like we have one major canada goose egg here<br/>
or rather zero of them<br/>
  by the conservative standard<br/>
& what a lovely weirdity that is<br/>
<br/>
indeed i have been admiring it for days<br/>
while also claiming visits<br/>
  measured by the liberal standard<br/>
to 3  in a class of 32  premier allcanadian multipoints<br/>
of which 28 involve this crown waters territory<br/>
& the rest of course comprise the elite 60th parallel column<br/>
of the so called 4 dry mounties<br/>
<br/>
& i really do dig it that here within easy reach of us is this very rare &<br/>
special country trypunctologically both living & dead at the same time<br/>
