April 1 1999 and the Canadian map changes forever as the new territory
makes its mark. Nunavut is mostly made up from the new lands revealed by
global warming, as the ice caps have receded (literally 'land from
nowhere').
 
This new territory has created a major problem for many Canadian
businesses who publish an annual calendar. WE have had 10 provinces and 2
territories since the annexation of Newfoundland in 1949. For 50 years,
every calendar has had one monthly photo (or map) for each
province/territory. Now we have one too many. A classic Canadian dilemna.
