The name proposed by Harvey Adams, a ship captain, and his wife, Barbara Schmeisser, an historian, from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, for the ocean of inland waters formed by the James Bay, the Hudson Bay, the Foxe Bassin and Channel, the Hudson Strait, and the Ungava Bay, as a means to promote Canadian unity. They were hoping for a decision before the year 2000; the toponymy commissions or authorities from the bordering Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Northwest Territories(or after April 1, 1999, the territory of Nunavut) have to be consulted before the Canadian Permanent Committee on Geographical Names(CPCGN), now the Geographical Names Board of Canada, makes official the designation. 2, record 1, English, - Canada%20Sea

Nom proposé par Harvey Adams, capitaine de bateau, et son épouse, Barbara Schmeisser, historienne, tous deux de Dartmouth, Nouvelle-Écosse, pour l'océan que forment les eaux intérieures de la baie James, la baie d'Hudson, le bassin et le détroit de Foxe, le détroit d'Hudson et la baie d'Ungava, comme moyen de promouvoir l'unité canadienne. Ils espéraient une décision avant l'an 2000; les commissions ou autorités toponymiques des provinces et territoires riverains, le Québec, l'Ontario, le Manitoba et les Territoires du Nord-Ouest (ou, après le 1er avril 1999, le Nunavut) doivent donner leur avis avant que le Comité permanent canadien des noms géographiques (CPCNG), maintenant la Commission de toponymie du Canada (CTC), ne rende officielle la désignation. 2, record 1, French, - mer%20du%20Canada
