Delete per nom. This is a trivia question masquerading as an encyclopedic list, like U.S. states without a desert. It's simply not a statewide issue, and as such, doesn't get any real press coverage. (Cities are another story.) Also delete Canadian provinces without major sports teams. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:00, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
