I’m from one of those provinces. I’m a 10th Generation Canadian whose family fled after the Revolutionary War because they supported the Brits, and we’ve lived in our small community since then. I am not, and have no intention to be an American.
But all the same, something like this doesn’t need more than a simple apology. Maybe they used the US instead of ‘Eastern North America’ and didn’t think anything of it. Maybe they’re just bad at geography. But if it was intentional, that’s when I get mad.
People in several Canadian provinces may need an apology after that.
Unfortunately, we’re getting used to it. Reference Rick Mercier’s Talking To Americans series.

Or they could’ve cut through the Erie Canal and kept it all in the US.
