In this treatment, we leave out the national designation (CA) at the end of each destination, coming back to the familiar form of postal address used by Canadians when sending domestic mail. Note that the provinces of Alberta (AB) and British Columbia (BC) can now join in!
A blogsite offering 30 entertaining oddities each month since January 2020. We are currently approaching 1800 posts in these five years. Images -- poetic (including song-lyrics), photographic, and computer-simulated -- are drawn from daily life as well as from poems and wordplay grouped by topic on our parent blog "Edifying Nonsense". The poetry displayed is all original (as are the song-lyrics), although portions evolved through rigorous editing on a collaborative website.

In Canada, we seem to have a propensity to name many of our towns and cities to highlight adjacent geographical features, e.g. Niagara Falls, Goose Bay, Rankin Inlet, Rainy River, Trois Rivieres, etc. The following collection honours that propensity.
Stay tuned, and there will be more 'fun-with-anagram' wordplay-maps showing further variants on this theme!
OR, if you really want to get into this form of wordplay, you could delve into a series of posts on "Edifying Nonsense", starting here.
