Whats wrong with this Map?


The southern Border of Labrador is supposed to follow the parallel.

God Damn Frenchmen.

Thankfully the only place this version of the Newfoundland and Labrador border can be found is in Quebec. I searched high and low and didn't find this version anywhere else.

Maybe it is this way because of translation :)
 
Boarder may as well be there, hunters from Quebec are in that area all the time. NL wildlife people are stretched both financially and bodies that not much can be done about it. Add to that the plans to harvest the rivers that flow from Labrador into Quebec, you have to ask, why not extend the beige part all the way up to Cape Chidley
 
Another thing; on closer look I see the park up at top extends into Labrador. Now I know there is a national park reserve on the Labrador side named after Torngat. And there is supposed to be a provincial park adjoining that on the Quebec side. My French is no good, so cant tell what is what on that map.
One thing that does stand out though is the amount of parks of various kinds in the northern section of Quebec.

Parc des Monts-Torngat-et-de-la-Rivière-Koroc. It would take in the Korok River valley and the best part of the Torngats from the Quebec side of the range.

Or in all of Quebec. Compare that to the pathetic amount of provincially-protected area that the provincial government has created in Labrador.

Heaven forbid that the provincial government have to reduce the amount of fees it collects from claims-staking in Labrador, after all.
 
It is in French.
 
Very good. What about it being in French?
