Thanks, I wasn't aware that "Salish Sea" encompasses the whole area but also keeps the individual names for the various

bodies of water comprising it. I have no idea what the official Canadian hydrographic office position is on Salish Sea.

Next, though, the Queen Charlottes ought, in my opinion, officially to be renamed Haida Gwaii, which is how many people have long referred to them anyway. Just to get the ball rolling, and better represent the incredibly rich and ancient indigenous culture of this coast.
