pronunciation edit

the IPA was ambiguous as to what the u was supposed to represent. Could someone correct if need be? kwami 04:26, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I got this response:

In NWO, we pronounce it "shoe nyuh" vıdıoman (talkcontribs) 12:50, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I take it that's like "shoo"? kwami 12:56, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

As if you are shooing something away, yes. :P vıdıoman (talkcontribs) 14:50, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Name & proper designation edit

Shuniah is not a township or a municipal township. It is a municipality consisting of more that one township. It consists of McGregor township and McTavish Township, and historically McIntyre township before the creation of Thunder Bay. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.76.237.230 (talk) 03:41, 2 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please re-read township (Canada). Geographic townships and political townships are two different things; a municipal township can encompass more than one geographic townships. And "municipality" is not a separate status; any place in Ontario that has "municipality" in its official name is still legally a town or a township; Shuniah's legal status is still that of a township.
