Geography 101, Please!

Judging from my, at best, mediocre scores playing the ultra-addictive Travel IQ (Come on, I wasn’t killing time; I was doing research!), it’s clear that I’m no geography whiz.

But even I know there’s something not quite right about this map of North America that appears on HolidayCheck’s Web site. I mean, when did the Great Lakes get shifted so far south?

As well, the U.S.-Canada border seems somewhat askew, right? And what happened to Mexico? Has it been annexed by South America or the Caribbean?
