Ontario's Federally Inspected Abattoirs

I finally got the Federal plant data, and analyzed it.  You can see it plotted here via Google Fusion Tables: https://www.google.com/fusiontables/DataSource?docid=1Uwv36F2tvNKnqmAnsKS9aY5-FxKjFODamRECEYQ#map:id=5

The data is from CFIA's website here: http://www.inspection.gc.ca/active/scripts/meavia/reglist/reglist.asp?lang=e

Note how most plants are crowded around Toronto.  Click on the map for a larger view, or use the link to create your own.

It would be nice if CFIA provided the latitude & longitude in their Excel spreadsheet table, so I and everybody else didn't need to spend 8 hours to get the data geogrid plottable in Google Maps.
