 $ grep Canada nsd_cccc.txt

 Can you create a simple mapping ( station_ID state_ID) and review the
 state_ids below, please?

 [CA]
 name=Canada
 states=AB BC MB NB NF NS NT ON QC SK YK 	Also PE and NU; and according to
Wikipedia, YK is commonly used, but the 
official code is YT. (!)
	And, Newfoundland (NF) is now Newfoundland and Labrador (NL).  This seems to 
be up to date now.  Note, though, that abbreviations in the nsd_cccc.txt file 
might not be as up-to-date as this list: :-)

| New   | Old (Eng., Fr)  | Name
| ----- | --------------- | ---------------------
| AB    | Alta, Alb       | Alberta
| BC    | B C, C-B        | British Columbia
| MB    | Man             | Manitoba
| NB    | N B, N-B        | New Brunswick
| NL    | Nfld,N L, T-N-L | Newfoundland and Labrador
| NS    | N S, N-E        | Nova Scotia
| NT    | N W T, T N-O    | Northwest Territories
| NU    | Nvt, Nt         | Nunavut
| ON    | Ont             | Ontario
| PE    | P E I, I P E    | Prince Edward Island
| QC    | Que, Qc, PQ, QU | Quebec
| SK    | Sask            | Saskatchewan
| YT,YK | Yuk, Yn         | Yukon Territory

	Many of the entries in nsd_cccc.txt have the province appended to the 
location instead of in the State field, but many more have none at all.  What 
fun!
