How this list was compiled: Items made on 2026-10-01; ids and points are the points file's, except the point of Nova Scotia, which stands further east inside the shape so that its name and the Bay of Fundy's both have room on the Named sheet. The sheet numbers the four provinces and four seas. The four Atlantic provinces are today's units: Statistics Canada counts 10 provinces and 3 territories (https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/92-195-x/2021001/geo/prov/prov-eng.htm), ISO 3166-2:CA as Wikipedia prints it lists the same ten and three (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:CA), and the map source draws these four as it does on the live Canada sheet. Which provinces the region holds: https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/atlantic-provinces (Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador constitute the Atlantic provinces; the first three are the maritime provinces) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Canada, both read on 2026-10-01. Names read the same day in the Canadian Geographical Names Database of Natural Resources Canada (https://geogratis.gc.ca/services/geoname/en/geonames: the four provinces as official names; Fredericton, Charlottetown and St. John's as cities and Halifax as a place and a regional municipality; Gulf of St. Lawrence, Bay of Fundy, Labrador Sea, Atlantic Ocean). Capitals, named in the copy and not marked on the sheet: https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/new-brunswick (Fredericton), https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/nova-scotia (Halifax; the province is primarily a peninsula with Cape Breton Island at its northeastern end), https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/prince-edward-island (Charlottetown; Canada's smallest province, in the Gulf of St Lawrence) and https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/newfoundland-and-labrador (St John's), with the infobox of each province's Wikipedia article; the seas with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_St._Lawrence, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_of_Fundy and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labrador_Sea. Quebec, Maine and the French islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon are plain land without a number.
