Taking inspiration from The United States of Autocomplete, I've autocompleted Canada, particularly the provinces and territories:
Apologies to Google for massacring their Google Map of Canada.
In Summary?
Canada's search results are generally more boring, more functional, less amusing. For the most part, it's the sort of search results you'd expect.
British Columbia
... is a great place to get your education:
- colleges
- institiute of technology
- news
- universities
I checked 'BC' just to see if 'BC Bud' would be in the top list, and it isn't.
Alberta
... is a good place to convalesce:
- health services
- jobs
- blue cross
- health care
Saskatchewan
... is all about football:
- roughriders
- jobs
- weather
- time zone
Manitoba
... is all about the hockey:
- moose
- hydro
- judge
- health
Ontario
... is a good place to bring the kids:
- place
- colleges
- parks
- science centre
Quebec
... is a nice place to visit, maybe do some shopping:
- city
- city hotels
- tourism
- sales tax
New Brunswick
... is just finishing an election:
- election
- election results
- tourism
- leper colony
I have to admit, I was caught totally off-guard by that last one. Someone in New Brunswick Tourism has gotta get to work on the SEO.
Nova Scotia
... is still excited about electricity.
- power
- bank
- weather
- real estate
Prince Edward Island

Nunavut
... is looking for work:

Autocompleted Cities
Seemed worth covering some of the bigger cities in Canada as well.
Vancouver
- sun
- canucks
- weather
- airport
Edmonton
- oilers
- journal
- sun
- weather
Calgary
- herald
- flames
- weather
- sun
Winnipeg

Ottawa

Montreal

Quebec City

For the most part, this just shows that Canadian cities care about the news, weather and hockey.
Brilliant.
