That is strange.

I wonder if there was a time overlap between when I was renaming "City of Thunder Bay" and when they were implementing the province code...

WME-Addons does that... But won't edit the State field separately from the City. It was real fun working on Sault Ste Marie, let me tell you!

I haven't found one segment in the city of Thunder Bay, ON to have Ontario assigned to it...

I haven't found a new version of the WME add-on that supports mass-editing of individual properties inside a selected landmark yet. Have you? Like how would one change just the State field without blanking out the City or Road name?

I've found that streets with no town name will not have a province associated with them, or the wrong province. It's kind of weird, Quebec seems to be paired with Alberta, and Ontario seems to be paired with PEI.

Canadian CM's -- you might want to take a look along the borders between provinces just to make sure that the segments are properly assigned to the correct side of the boundary; other than that, there shouldn't be anything extra that you'll have to do as a result of this. I already checked out part of the Ontario / New York border, and what I've seen so far has been correct. 8-)
