BC, Canada not showing up on Fill Map

I am using a Fill Map for Canadian locations. BC is not showing up. 

 

If I use the MAP Visual and add in City & State the point is visible. When using just the State/Province only BC does not show up. 

 

Help! Here are the locations I have

 

City      State

Airdrie   AB

Langley  BC

St Bruno  QC

Vaughan ON

@savanahubio,

 

Power BI integrates with Bing to provide default map coordinates (a process called geo-coding). For tips to increase your geo-coding success, see Tips and tricks for map visualizations. You may first make it work at https://www.bing.com/maps.

Bing can be a little, well, confused at times...  We've found giving it locations combing city & state or state & country or county & state help it "Only return one possible result..." to show filled mapping.

 

See below where we added " Canada" to all the State fields and BAM, good to go!
