Give CANADA some respect

For one of my projects, we've been hand filling out a lot of prog application forms. Actually hundreds. One thing I keep noticing is that the country selection forms do not realistically reflect population pool of webmasters. In particular, most programs have the US (correctly so due to sheer numbers of webmasters and origin of the programs in question) as the default choice. However, instead of the EU countries or CANADA being the next choice its usually Uganda scrolling up or something like that.

First, no disrespect to the webmasters in Kampala, but shouldn't this be Canada or at least a European (affiliate accepted) country since there's a higher likelihood of webmasters being from those countries?

Just a minor quibble. But hey, lets give our Canadian and EU friends more respect...since many of the other countries in a typical country drop down shouldn't even be there since many processors/sponsors don't take traffic from those locales.
