The problem with the mnemonic above is Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories. The Northwest Territories, the Yukon and Nunavut. Please see the this link for proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Provinces_and_territories_of_Canada

Then for the territories: Your Not Nice (Yukon, Northwest Territory and Nunavut)
