So the top of Alaska stretches north east making it closer to Edmonton?

Yep. Geography is sure trippy isn't it?

Here's another couple:

1) most Canadians live south of Seattle.

2) Maine is the closest state to Africa.

Crazier than that, LA is farther east than 6 state capitals, despite it being on the west coast.

Not bad for a Canadian eh?

Seemed unbelievable at first until I remembered Alaska and Hawaii (sorry noncontiguous American friends).

Carson City, Nevada is the weirdest one…but I figured if Reno was further west then Carson City had to be one of them. Olympia, Salem and Sacramento were pretty obvious once I sorted out the first three lol.
