223:. Yes, the topic would be lost, but lets face it, the sub-lists are pretty much exact copies of the main list tables (except some are split into public and private). The only differences are individual maps and a larger lead (although much of the text is repeated). Generally, I'm not a fan of sub-lists using the exact same table format as the master list. Sub-lists need to offer something new before they should be given their own page. -- 121:(no bold title). Inclusion criteria not explained. Why group as Prairie region? This region exists in one once place in Canadian law, the Senate, which has nothing to do with Universities. Why only universiries and not colleges or other post-secondary?

Whilst I still think this should be merged, even if this could stand alone legitimately the information is all out of date (fall 2007) so I think this should be delisted regardless.
