DuckDuckGo is your friend. A quick search shows that Canada has been forgotten.

Great sadness! I'm French Canadian on my mother's side, and as an American I feel rejected and dismissed by Disney! NO poutine for Disney!!!

Now be honest. Did you ever in your life think you would be saying "DuckDuckGo is your friend"?

DOn't feel too bad, in the Europe section they pretty much forget all the Baltic countries, all of eastern Europe, and Luxembourg, Andorra, Malta, Liechtenstein, San Marino, and Monaco.

They went for countries with easily recognized touristy cliché sights. The Caribbean is missing, too. Why not show a cigar factory and the famous photo of Che Guevara?

A casino or a grand prix car would be better. I'm guessing anyone younger than 60 has no clue who princess grace is. I mean seriously, if it wasn't for The Bridges at Toko-Ri, no one would have noticed her. ;) Oh, and a couple Hitchcock movies.

Casino, too much detail at that scale and could offend adults who don't want kids to see gambling. Car, yes, good idea.

There's a lot that I would have done differently. Show industries and agriculture. Vineyards for Italy, Gold Rush scene in the U.S. section instead of cowboy and Indian (heap big turnoff to First Nations members, ugh!), or simplified movie set. Fields of grain, fruit, whatever; plowing, harvesting. Too many exhibits are just smiling children in costume. And I would have fixed the numerous misspellings on that map.

True, wasn't thinking about the kids. I suppose space, time and content need to be considered when planning an attraction. I've never been to any of the major parks, Disney World, Disneyland, Cedar Point and the others. Are the attractions manned by animatronics or are there actual people involved? I guess that could be a problem/solution with the massive layoffs Disney recently announced.
