[Bug 214730] [NEW] Incorrect date format in en_CA.utf8 locale

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj):

The date format in /usr/lib/locale/en_CA.utf8/LC_TIME specifies the date
format as "%d/%m/%y". (This is also the case if you run the command
'locale LC_TIME' with your locale set to en_CA.utf8.) However, it should
be "%y-%m-%d". This is the standard date format in Canada (as specified
by the Canadian Standards Association in CSA Z234.5:1989, which adopts
the ISO 8601 standard). I noticed this in Ubuntu 7.10.
