Now that Windows > 8, Mac OS X, and Ubuntu all use YYYY-MM-DD for Canadian
English by default, should this be revisited?

[Bug localedata/9842] New: Incorrect date format in en_CA.utf8 locale

[martin dot pitt at ubuntu dot com]

>From https://launchpad.net/bugs/214730:

The date format in /usr/lib/locale/en_CA.utf8/LC_TIME specifies the date format
as "%d/%m/%y". (This is also the case if you run the command 'locale LC_TIME'
with your locale set to en_CA.utf8.) However, it should be "%y-%m-%d". This is
the standard date format in Canada (as specified by the Canadian Standards
Association in CSA Z234.5:1989, which adopts the ISO 8601 standard).

Here's the web page from the National Research Council of Canada citing ISO 8601
as the standard date/time format in Canada, by the way:
http://inms-ienm.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/faq_time_e.html#Q8.

I very much doubt this would go over well.  Yes, it is the proposed format.  But
the locale information is what people expect.  And I suspect they expect the
current format especially since the US format isn't going to change any time soon.
