(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). Here's the web page from the National Research Council of Canada citing ISO 8601 as the standard date/time format in Canada, by the way: http://inms-ienm.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/faq_time_e.html#Q8.

Yes, it is the proposed format. But the locale information is what people expect. And I suspect they expect the current format especially since the US format isn't going to change any time soon.
