There is documentation that should help you with setting up GoeCharts:

https://help.gooddata.com/display/doc/Setting+up+Data+for+Geo+Charts https://help.gooddata.com/display/doc/Tutorial+-+Build+a+Geo+Chart

In regards to Canada - As you will see, it is not listed in the above documentation. At this point in time, we only have polygons for "Highest Population Centers" for Canada.

If polygons from "Highest Population Centers" is not sufficient you would have to provide your own polygons from a free source.

To set the geolabel to Canada "Highest Population Centers":

Identify Attribute where your geodata is stored Go to grey pages of this attribute: /gdc/md//obj/ Identify label that has your data (there is an array called "displayForms" in the definition, there is one or more labels). Get the uri value from there (it will be in form of "/gdc/md//obj/" Modify the Label definition (use appropriate label type from the table above instead of "GDC.geo.capopcenters.pcpuid") Go to /gdc/md//obj/?mode=edit and add following to the content part and submit. type: GDC.geo.capopcenters.pcpuid
