Apple seems confused about Canadian geography

Darpan News Desk Canadian Press, 12 Sep, 2014 11:00 AM

TORONTO - Apple seems to be a little confused when it comes to Canadian geography.

Consumers who hit Apple.ca to pre-order one of the company's new iPhones and clicked on a link about delivery timelines saw an error-riddled map of Canada.

Apple appeared to have mixed up the nation's capital and Ontario's capital, and placed Ottawa roughly where Toronto should be on the map.

Edmonton is also seen to be northwest of Calgary, instead of northeast.

And St. John's, N.L. is missing its apostrophe.

A comment from Apple was not immediately available.
