Makes sense... but what if your province is usually known by its abbreviation? I live in B.C. (Canada), short for British Columbia, but I'd almost never use the full form. On the other hand, I'd never say AB for Alberta (is that even the right abbreviation?), and I don't think any Albertan would either.
