    Canadians in Vancouver, B.C. have long considered themselves to be part of the Pacific NorthWest. I have long considered them to be part of the Pacific NorthWest.

    I'd say no, since it's not physically close to the area.

    What about the pipeline, did you know about that? The caribou rub up against it and have babies.

    It deserves its own thread, but I'll put it here:

    Is Buffalo, New York in the Alantic Northwest?

    Almost.

    The original NW territory, established after the revolutionary war, started were the eastern most part of Ohio State meets Lake Erie. Buffalo, NY is on Lake Erie, but about 100+ miles east of the original NW territory.
