Hi - I need a little instruction form SKS. My lines have just gone Canadian and I am lost. I'm from the states and I thought I was educated-not-I know perfectly well that there are Provinces and Ontario is one of them. And I can figure out what a town is. The question is, what are all the divisions between the two? Does Canada have counties? What are the sub divisions? I pulled an extracted census and it came with a string of names divided by commas, then a capital O and Ontario. Does the O mean anything, or does it just mean Ontario? Thanks in advance for the education-- Helen
