    I can’t argue with this, it’s been a place holder for a real name for I don’t know how many years lol, weird.

    Probably for the same reason that America hasn't made Puerto Rico a State.

    Outside of Yellowknife, does anybody live in the Northwest Territories? This post was edited by Slartibartfast at August 23, 2020 6:28 PM MDT

    I believe the people of Puerto Rico have voted against statehood.
