On the Google Maps Help page, where users can post questions and concerns, one person with the username Louise N wrote that provincial parks are being “incorrectly listed as State parks” on Feb. 22. She added that “we do not have states in Canada” and asked, “How can this be fixed?”

Recently, some Canadians have called out the tech giant over its mislabelling of provincial parks as “state” parks on Google Maps. In TV interviews and on social media, local residents have lambasted what some have deemed "American oppression" of Canadian culture.

Canadians have taken to social media wondering why Google Maps is referring to some provincial parks as "state" parks, an incorrect designation that's ruffling feathers at a time of heightened tension between Canada and the United States.
