Canadians left outraged at worrying first sign US is set to make country its 51st state
Canadians have been left outraged by a telling clue that the United States is edging closer toward making its northern neighbor the 51st state.
Amid repeated warnings from President Trump that he's interested in acquiring Canada as a state of America, Canadians noticed some provincial parks have recently been mislabeled as 'state' parks on Google maps.
Speaking to CTV news, resident Rachel Deren said: 'I would like to draw attention to this disgusting display of American oppression of Canadian culture and autonomy.
'This alarming revelation has stirred many who have noticed, as it is an attack on our Canadian identity.'
Mount Robson Park, Whaleboat Island Marine Provincial Park and Pinecone Burke Provincial Park are among a handful of parks in Canada that go by 'state park' on Google maps.
This is despite being almost exclusively referred to as 'provincial' parks within Canada, while 'state' parks are considered an Americanized term.
We are proud to be Canadian and will remain so despite attempts like this from our ever increasingly hostile neighbours to the south,' Deren said.
On Reddit, dozens of users have noted the same concerning trend and have set about reporting them as 'errors' to the tech giant.
'It is a big issue,' one user explained.
