gives

... University of British Columbia. Vancouver, Canada.

with biblatex-apa 7.6, biblatex 3.11 and biber 2.11. But according to the APA Manual it should give

... University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.

7.04.36 is a similar case. The APA Manual reads

... Symposium conducted at the meeting of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Jackson Hole, WY.

However, the biblatex-apa-test-references.bib has a comment

Note this renders with a period before the LOCATION which is more consistent with other entries

I'm not convinced, it think it may actually be the other way round. The pattern seems to be

place/building/event, city, country.

Compare also to 7.05:44 and 7.10:65-70. Only 7.10:69 has a period. That is, however, in the way

Project, organization. Archive, city, country.

Thus, there is still a comma and not a period before city. So in need of correction may be the code handling 7.04:36, 7.09:58, and 7.10:70.
