Ok, good to know. Thanks.

On the mkgmap generated map of Canada, POIs have the city and province
name displayed. If the POI has full address information in OSM, then
the full address is displayed. I think the bounds are being set
correctly.

One thing I noticed is that the built-in map of Canada uses the
province abbreviation whereas the mkgmap generated map uses the full
province name. For instance, the built-in map uses ON for the province
while the map generated with mkmap uses Ontario. Could this somehow be
causing the problem?

In any case, I would like to use the province abbreviations instead of
the full province names. Is there a setting that I can use in mkgmap
to get this behaviour?

Thanks, Ben
