O Canada!
According to NedStat, the Canadian (Canadienne) readership of this page is 8/10 of 1%. With such a low overall hit-rate, I think we can substantially increase this by reaching out to our cousins to the north. (I am a geographer who has never figured out when to capitalize compass directions in writing. Steve, a little help?)
The first thing we could do is to make everything bi-lingual, which I believe is statutory with our northern neighbor. Oh, I guess the title of this blog already accomplishes this. Maybe that's enough.
I don't think including META tags about Canadian porn will be that helpful. ...but maybe that is worth a shot as well.
Maybe a comment on the loss of the Expos would bring up our readership. No, that won't work, they wouldn't even attend their games. When I was in graduate school, there were two Canadian Football League teams with the same name (Rough Riders), but the Ottawa team folded. Now only Saskatchewa possesses that team name. Interestingly, Ottawa now has a team called the Renegades.
The winner of the Grey Cup should play the Green Bay Packers (the culturally immanent football team in the States). We would call this the World Bowl, and the CFL teams would definitely have a shot since it would always be the Packers (they're close enough, and that Sacramento team never really worked out - so distance seems to be a factor).

I think when a direction is used as a name of the region (e.g., the South, the Midwest), then it's in caps. If it's merely directional, then it's not capitalized.
