Magnetic lines of flux travel out of a magnetic north pole and into a magnetic south pole. Modern compassess are designed to follow the direction of the lines of flux. It therefore stands to reason that they are in actual fact pointing towards a south pole. So in answer to your question what is known as "the magnetic north" on earth is in actual fact the magnetic south pole of the planet.

Yesssanno
Correct on the whole north to south thing. However magenetic north is still magnetic north - just the perception changes.
The same idea of misleading ideas can be pointed towards the power socket. The neutral often is not very neutral at all, and has the same "omphf" as the phase/active connection.

The magnetic north is actually different from the real north. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_declination
