This is a MapHist list message (when you hit 'reply' you're replying to the whole list)
o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + 

Strange maps also has another one, 
http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/2007/09/11/174-the-nine-nations-of-north-america/ 
, describing Quebec as one of the "nine nations" of North America.

Looking at the 2008 map you link at the strange maps site, I wasn't 
clear that the map depicted Quebec favoring the USSR, but rather only 
showing Cuba and Nicaragua as pro-Soviet.
