Re: Policy updates for specific countries

Well, this is pretty much the only way I could do it to be honest with you.

I can get Canada and Ontario quite easily. I can do Quebec super easily as well. 

For the other provinces, I'll really need to dig deeper so either way, they'd have to come after.
