I joined BIP shortly after it started and was welcomed with open  
arms.  A little later, BIP sent a speaker to an OBA meeting asking  
Ontario beekeepers to take part in the survey.  The Ontario/Canadian  
data was not split out and we were told to look at nearby areas in  
the US until BIP figured out how to deal with Canadian postal codes.   
This autumn, I was unable to respond to the survey with my location  
but told to choose a nearby US location from a drop-down list.  I've  
been to Guam,it was on the list, but neither Ontario nor Alberta was.
I guess their data doesn't include Ontario bees.  Certainly not mine  
anymore.
