PHP Array Of Canadian States

Use the following array to print out a list of Canadian states, also know as provinces.

$canadian_states = array( 
    "BC" => "British Columbia", 
    "ON" => "Ontario", 
    "NL" => "Newfoundland and Labrador", 
    "NS" => "Nova Scotia", 
    "PE" => "Prince Edward Island", 
    "NB" => "New Brunswick", 
    "QC" => "Quebec", 
    "MB" => "Manitoba", 
    "SK" => "Saskatchewan", 
    "AB" => "Alberta", 
    "NT" => "Northwest Territories", 
    "NU" => "Nunavut",
    "YT" => "Yukon Territory"
);

Here is the same array, but with the French versions of the states.

$canadian_states = array( 
    "AB" => "Alberta",
    "BC" => "Colombie-Britannique",
    "MB" => "Manitoba",
    "NB" => "Nouveau-Brunswick",
    "NL" => "Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador",
    "NS" => "Nouvelle-Écosse",
    "NT" => "Territoires du Nord-Ouest",
    "NU" => "Nunavut",
    "ON" => "Ontario",
    "PE" => "Île-du-Prince-Édouard",
    "QC" => "Québec",
    "SK" => "Saskatchewan",
    "YT" => "Yukon"
);

Some corrections for your Canadian provinces and territories array: Newfoundland should be "NL" => "Newfoundland and Labrador" and you're missing: "NU" => "Nunavut"Canadian subnational postal abbreviations

One more comma needed! Line 13 after "Nunavut"

Thanks for the arrays. Just FYI, they are never referred to as "states". It's "provinces" and "territories".
