      We have broken these down into the 8 natural geographic & demographic boundaries that are within Canada. We have kept consistant throughout the website with these Geographic Areas. When playing a national championship (i.e. Women's Hockey U-18 & U18 Football Canada Cup) these are the natural georgraphic and demographic boundaries that are used (note: in 2010 only Nova Scotia is sending representation from Atlantic Canada to the U18 Football Canada Cup tourney...the entire Atlantic region sends one team to the Women's U18 Hockey National Championship).

      Further, the Ontario boundary is broken down in our high school forums page as East and West (it is done in greater detail there). There is a natural border which both the provincial body (Ontario Football Alliance) and the provincial High School association (OFSAA) have used in determining provincial teams and regional championship boundaries.
      The "East Regions" western border extends to and includes Toronto, York, and Simcoe Regions. The "West Regions" eastern border extends to and includes Peel Region. Using the High School regional championship model: National Capital and Metro Bowls are in the East. Western and Golden Horseshoe Bowls are in the West. North Bay & Sudbury are in the East. Sault St. Marie and Thunder Bay are in the West. (NOTE: Thunder Bay residents participate for Manitoba in National Championships due to proximity).

      Very interesting that all of the NAIA players come from the Prairies.

      Interesting to see that Ontario sent almost 46% of the Canadian players in US College programs while having approx. 38% of the Canadian population. Ontario has the highest ratio of players to population. The next best is Manitoba which has less than 4% of the Canadian population but has over 8% of the players.

      I wonder how that compares to the CIS?
