It's north of the 49th, as is the bulk of the landmass. It's common to use "south of the 49th" as a euphemism for the States, but if you draw the line across the rest of the country you find that the historical nucleus as well as the bulk of the population fall south of that line.
As a Vancouverite born, I'm obliged to say that the Canucks are indeed mighty warriers. As an anti-fan of hockey and sports in general, I'm obliged to say "meh". As far as I'm aware, they didn't make the playoffs this year. That is all.

We're allowed to use it to refer to things that aren't in Canada, like the 72% of the planet that's located at lower latitudes.

Yeah. Ever been hit in the face by a kicked volleyball?
My research supervisor's former postdoc supervisor didn't like any of the team sports offered at his school, so he and another guy asked the headmaster if they could form a running club. Turns out that other guy was Roger Bannister. Now I just need to work out how to get to Kevin Bacon in another couple of steps.

Oh, probably.
Oddly enough, I played beach volleyball with fellow chemists last summer and didn't suck at it nearly as much as I did in high school.

Then again, presumably they didn't force you to play...?

Something like that, yeah.
Plus I was a bit taller and stronger at 25 than I was at 14.
