At no point have I ever heard western Canada called cascadia.

Now I’m curious about the entomology of both of these names. Thanks for the Google rabbit hole! 😅

I saw Cascadia play World Cup football at the alternative World Cup CONFIA.

So the inclusion of the part of the Newfoundland here is suspect. This really is not at all considered “Acadia”, as it was not settled by the French Acadians. Sure, there were French in areas where the fishing rights were secured even after 1763, but it isn’t Acadia.

Unrelated but Acadian folk music is pretty good

I’m pretty sure the Gaspé Peninsula in Québec is (or at least used to be) considered part of Acadia.
Never knew that piece of NFL was too.
I don’t get confused, but that’s probably because I live in Nova Scotia
I love how “Cascadia” is all of BC except for the Peace region.
