Bug Description

For several releases, now, when you click on Montreal's location in the map for choosing location during fresh installation of Ubuntu, it does not give you Montreal.

Worse, if you start typing Montreal, it gives you two options. If you pick either of them, the "Continue" button remains greyed. You may not proceed. This is the second largest city in Canada...

The probleme is with ubuntu 16 as well and to fix it you must choose (during install) "Mont-real" and not "Montreal" The city name is miss spell ;)
