[edit]In the last 24 hours, three new names have been added: Layton, Smokey Smith, and Maurice Richard. The only one of those three who should be included on the list is Layton, and he should be identified as "An Eminent Canadian", as it is for that reason that he is receiving the honour. While Smith lay in state, he received a military, not a state funeral. Richard also did not receive a state funeral. Does anyone have any evidence to support the claims, or should I just remove them?PoliSciMaster (talk) 20:34, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, found the source of the error. Provinces and territories can give state funerals: Richard was given a provincial state funeral, by Quebec. Haven't researched the Smith claim, but I presume you're correct. Do we have a Military funerals in Canada page? Or does this term technically apply to all vets? -- Zanimum (talk) 23:42, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
- If Smith's funeral wasn't a state funeral, should we not remove the image from the top of the article? --Ħ MIESIANIACAL 15:56, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Notice of discussion at WP:CANADA
[edit]Seeing as there appears to be a disagreement over 'what' to call the provincial government leaders? I've brought content dispute to WP:CANADA's talkpage. GoodDay (talk) 19:26, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- Always following me around.
- What disagreement? You created an edit conflict. I pasted in what I copied from my edit window, so as to not lose my work because of your edit conflict.
- "Premier" and "prime minister" are synonyms, anyway. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 19:32, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- Are you in agreement that "Premier" is the correct english language terminology, for provincial/territorial government leaders? GoodDay (talk) 19:36, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- [Another edit conflict.] No, I am not in agreement "premier" is the correct "English language terminology" for provincial/territorial government leaders. As I wrote, quite clearly, "premier" and "prime minister" are synonyms. In correct "Enligsh language terminology", they are completely interchangable. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 19:52, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- If you're in disagreement? I'll notify (via link), this discussion at WP:CANADA. GoodDay (talk) 19:55, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Deleted said WP:CANADA discussion. It was a edit glitch, rather then a disagreement. GoodDay (talk) 19:49, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
