A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

Just outline the GTA and call it a day.
Vancouver is not on Vancouver Island.
According to whose geography?
Well he landed there. But he's not there now, not for a while. Nor the town: that's on the mainland (aka the Big Island with Moncton and New Denver on it) .
Fun fact: there's a Victoria Island but Victoria isn't there either, the person nor the town.

? It's just a fact. The urban agglomeration commonly known as Vancouver (any of them) is not on the large, west-coast island known as Vancouver island.
I suspect you're trolling.

The real anarchy would be to make Canadians live anywhere BUT what's on the map
I'm a Canadian and I would have to drive ~8 hours to end up on that map.
IIRC one of the 19th century presidents basically campaigned on that, at least as far as the western side was concerned.
54/40 or fight!
They're gonna have to take that ocean pearl out of my cold, dead hands.

I am sure some US hardliners see the map and wonder how is this country still independent.
These positions are not defensible from military perspective.
C'mon, it even looks like a rifle
Who would be insane enough to invade a country, that already looks like a weapon?
Careful how you phrase that, I heard a militia of collectors is forming to capture the biggest depiction of a gun in the world
Trump did call Trudeau governor of the great state of Canada yesterday and suggested it should become the 51st state a ~week ago
dude is too stupid to understand why he should not do it.
until i hear some GOP chaney and kissegeer types, i aint worried.
Yeah, I'm not worried about imminent invasion either. A trade war will already basically cause chaos, though, and it could escalate from there. Hopefully the government is up to the task.
You want to know why Canada still exists despite having a fraction of the manpower or military of the United States?
It's because the United States likes Canada. We think they're fun to have around.

The War of 1812 disagrees.
Touche but US capabilities are now that of a global empire, all of Canada is within few hundred mile from US border and its core literally cuts into the US while power disparity is wider than Ukraine/Russia.
Nobody who knows much seriously thinks we'd win a conventional war. We could slap together nukes pretty quickly, but we'd probably rather just get annexed. Our defences are all diplomatic.
That took place entirely in the Great Lakes area. The other bit was still very, very Native.
Also, we like to take credit for that, but that was basically the British Empire fighting for one of it's colonies, and IIRC most of the British soldiers involved were not from here.
No, we're going back to the North Atlantic triangle days if the US goes funny like it appears to be going.
Excellent. I’m cut out from there so I can make my own country.
I don't think I've ever noticed BC's cute lil wiener till now.
Canada looks like a shit gun.
I was thinking a gun from warframe
It's Legendary though and will cost you $1867 to unlock.
Do you hear that, Randy? The Americans cocked the shit gun
Canada is the north side of the st. Lawrence river, everything else is just that area's backyard
Whitespace pride! (Okay, only by a bit in my case. I wonder if we have any Yellowknifers)
Also the whole East Coast
I'm just happy the line on the west is so thick and dark. I'm not used to this kind of representation for the Island and I'm loving the token charity there.
Oh shit, Newfoundland left again and took NS, PEI and maybe NB with them. I didn't even notice.
Still in the provinces, but technically northern Canada here! There's like at least 2 or 3 other people living up here!
Wow, maybe even 3! /s
