Yes they did mention that it is in both countries

From about 47:15, the commentary is honest, well-reasoned and fair. I appreciate the realization that we must alter our course if we want to leave a responsibly stewarded continent to the Americans of 2054, and 2084, of 2124, 2224, 2324 or even 2424! (If you don't get that sentence, it's not important. I just mean let's live with respect for the future). I definitely want to be remembered as a generation who saw the delayed ill effects of careless technologies, wasteful economies and a cavalier attitude toward this world's fabulous but finite resources. And North Americans can be an example--from the Panama Canal to the Plain of Abraham, from the smiles of San Salvador to the club Blues of old-town St. Louis, from pyramids of Yucatan to the shores of Labrador--we could become the "beacon continent," the world's lighthouse for living sustainably, but prosperously. We citizens of Canada and the Caribbean Nations, of Central America and Mexico and of "El Norte" itself, the United States, have lived largely in peace, by living cooperatively, for over a century. If only we add "sustainably" to "cooperatively," we could lead a world refreshed and heartened by good will, one restored for good by willing hearts.

California averages 10 tornadoes each year. They do occur occasionally, particularly in the Los Angeles Basin and Central Valley. Tornadic activity in California, to my understanding, is usually (but not always) associated with winter storms. As with most tornadoes, most of these are weak (EF0-EF1). With regard to strong (F2/EF2+) tornadoes, there are a few on record, including an F2 that struck Los Angeles in March 1983.

no mention of big cats?! puma, lynx, bobcat

At around 5:30, this video states that plate tectonics caused the Bering Land Bridge to sink below the sea 11,000 years ago. Actually, this submergence, which did occur roughly 11,000 years ago, I believe, was caused by the melting of the Ice Sheets that covered much of Canada and Europe, primarily, at the end of the latest Ice Age.

Yeah. That's a new word for me. In 75 years of learning about my home continent I have never heard that term until this video.

There’s a lot of confusion around the word “discovered.” In simple terms, to discover something is to find or see something for the first time. Whether or not it was the Vikings, Christopher Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, or someone else who discovered it first will always be debated. To discover something does not nullify the fact that it did not exist before. It means that the subject had no prior knowledge of what they discovered. It does not negate the fact that there were, indeed, Indigenous and/or Native peoples inhabiting and thriving on their land.

"You people" need to stop being Semantiphobic. If I say, "I discovered a Chinese Restaurant downtown yesterday", it doesn't mean that I Constructed the building and Invented egg rolls or was the first person to ever eat Chinese food. Discover means to find something Unexpectedly. The discovery is on the part of the person doing the looking NOT on the object being found. So something can be discovered by more than one person. For example, just because I discovered you are an Idiot doesn't mean that Many People haven't discovered the same thing before. Imagine living in 2024 and not knowing the definition of Discover. Furthermore, even if you were correct, you are still wrong in This instance because the narrator specifically quantified the use of the word "discovered" by adding the context of European in the previous sentence.
