Can you please go burn down the White House again?

Jesus fucking Christ already!

The orange butt plug and fElon need to keep their fucking hands off Canada.

What I don't get is some are labeled park and some state parks.

I'm not seeing this at all.

Provincial Parks in BC are all still called 'xyz provincial park'.

If you explicitly search for 'state park' all the provincial ones come up, but there's nothing in any of their details mentioning 'state' in anyway.

/edit: found it.

It's subtle, but it's there.

Mount Robson Park from both search and maps:

They don't let you specify in the 'edit suggestion' what it should be; but they let you add images.

/edit submitted one for every park in BC.

Since we are renaming things, why not abandon the America noun to designate the USA?

That would please millions on Americans from many countries that calls themselves Americans since they are referring to the continent.

Congrats. It's a lot of parks.

Looks like they have not changed all of them yet

May as well start calling temples "churches" and change all speed limits to Mph since it seems we're in a "being wrong" contest.

Just checked and sure enough, nearby provincial parks are labelled 'State Park'

Man, all these tech giants keep making convenient "mistakes"....

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

I wouldn't be surprised if the orange utan asked Google to "make a mistake" on purpose, to float the idea and see what would happen.

The app is showing provincial and national for me. I'm in NS and have a few around the city and they aren't mislabeled from what I see.πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

~~Either I'm the odd one out or they changed it back.~~

Edit: found one, how have you been reporting this?
