Canada's current definitions are from 2021-03-15 (YMD). Today I will start updating it to newer data. Canada was also the only country that didn't use OSM only. It was a mix of OSM and some census data. With the new version this will be fixed. OSM didn't have the polygons needed two years ago.

The update includes some changes though.
Quote

Northwest Territories
* Removed Behchokǫ̀ Region (now part of North Slave Region).
* Added Gwich'in Settlement Area (splitted from Inuvik Region)

Ontario
* Sudbury and Greater Sudbury merged (new name Sudbury).
* Haldimand-Norfolk splitted into two, Haldimand and Norfolk.

British Columbia
* Powell River renamed to qathet Regional District.

At least the following challenge checkers are likely to be affected:

Not affected, since it's UK and not Canada.

The import of polygons has completed. Now I will start a few jobs that will update the county names and such. That will probably require a few hours (maybe 5-10h). Meanwhile both old and new will exist.
