True, the Akureyri cong in Iceland is in 65° North.  

There is Ilulissat cong in Groenland : 69° North  

 

I guess it was only for North America.

It's them thinking that America is all there is

I'm no geography expert - but this location looks pretty far north to me

That was my question too. It's not the Kingdom Hall that we're speaking of here.

 

I hereby declare @Qapla's post

Maybe we should just agree with him.  He is "no geography expert" and the spot he has picked looks to be "pretty far north"...🙂

That was the location returned by Google using the address of the KH in the article

 

OK - I tried it again by typing it in (instead of letting it "search" the highlighted address) and got this

Farthest north for Canada is what I got from article. A good witness since equipment had to be brought in and workers are unpaid volunteers.
