What would you propose the city placement would be in these?

I like to found more cities than most people, but I personally would go with:
Washington, New York, Quebec, Toronto, Atlanta (1 north of marble), Houston, Albuquerque, Chicago, St. Louis, Denver (on hill), Winnipeg (1 south of the lake), Calgary (1 south of the Canadian oil), maybe Phoenix/Boise/Vegas, L.A., San Francisco, and Vancouver.
But that's just me. I don't like the idea of covering the U.S. and Canada with a few supercities, but I know some people do.

Keep your mind out of settling Canada as America. What would the placement be for being within US borders?

Then it would be the same, except for Boston and Seattle being added to the list.

No New Orleans? I'd rather have a city in New Orleans than one in the Kentucky area.

The thing is, people are going to do it anyway.
I mean, why wouldn't they? It's ripe for the taking.

Then that's a problem with the game. If Turkey was able to take over Russia easy and without handicaps or limitations, it's the game's fault not the historical Turkish people's fault for not taking the opportunity.

I don't find that this comparison holds water.
Canada does not have a civ to occupy it, other than the English and the French,
and they don't build their cities all the way across Canada, usually settling only around Quebec.
As a result, it's just empty and ripe for the taking.
Russia on the other hand is occupied by a civ; Russia.

Why don't the British settle farther westward?

I'm not sure.
Canada is Historical for both England and America though.
The only thing I can think of is that when America DoWs on England on spawn,
it sends it's Settlers northwest while cutting off England with its troops.
The US produces comparable amounts of wine to Spain and Italy, and Californian wines are the most internationally competitive with French.
On a related note, Argentina should probably get a Wine resource at the same time California does.
It's not only a matter of quantity of wine produced (btw in this chart France, Italy and Spain would occupy first three positions), but a matter of amounts of wine exported, in terms of milions of hectoliters or market shares. American wine is mainly absorbed by domestic market, instead of French, Italian or Spanish wine, which share more than a half of global wine exports.

The Wine in the U.S. should be 1N of the San Francisco tile,
directly corresponding to Napa Valley, California's premiere wine-making region.

They do eventually if they are doing well enough. I often see English York Factory and even occasionally an inland city between there and Vancouver.

Yeah, York Factory often makes its appearance in my games (I slightly buffed up the English AI's playstyle, though). It also sometimes gets conquered by the Americans (I made their leaders moderately aggressive, rather then current wimps. It's amusing how Firaxis made Lincoln and Roosevelt to be total unit underbuild wimps and Washington to be sorta wimpy still).
In my last game as Korea, they founded Saskatoon and Winnipeg before American spawn. Sadly Korea was in the Americas as well and kicked them out.

A wine in Argentina sounds good. Moving the wine in california also sounds good.
So far I support widening California and the Snazzy Oregonia, but I still have to analyze the different in gameplay with Giant's big US overhaul since it's so drastic.
