Inspired by countless games of Geoguessr! I have chosen the most common highway shields for major routes, although alternatives exist for smaller roadways/specific highways. Keep in mind that every highway in the Yukon has a different colour scheme, albeit with the same design.

Nice quiz Jiao! btw, how you did it so that the province appear in stats, but not in the selector?

Thank you! There is more text pasted under the quiz instructions,

<style>

.map-game-page .map-answer .text { display: none; }

.map-game-page .map-correct-answer img { opacity: 0.4; }

<img src="(image adress)" width="75.5" height="120" /><div >Ontario</div>

And that last line is an example of what the answer looks like, I have the image and its dimensions, followed by the province which is given the class 'text'. This text is set to not display during the game, it only has the chance to appear afterwards. The second line makes correctly guessed images slightly lighter also. I have copied this from a featured quiz using flags, and modified it to my liking (with my limited computer skills). Hope it was helpful :)

You also need </style> after the line '.map-game-page . map-correct-answer img...', I forgot to add it and I cannot edit my comment very easily.

Nice! You can certainly figure most of these out if you know the commons symbols/colours associated with each province.

To be honest I admire how unique they are, compared to just about all other North American highway shields.
