Canada Geography
There are ten provinces and three territories in Canada spanning a few
geographic regions. These are detailed in brief below with links to more
reading and pictures on the Canadian Tourism Commission website. Agents
should direct students wanting to learn about Canada to this website and use it
to familiarize themselves with the different parts of Canada.
Atlantic Canada:
This region includes the provinces of Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Nova Scotia. In these picturesque and charming provinces, you’ll find some of the most unique and friendly people in the world. The music, folklore, seafood, and scenery in Atlantic Canada are unlike anywhere else. The region boasts countless beaches, coves, parks, and forests, and the towns and cities are often quaint and filled with Maritime artifacts. Tiny villages abound, but there are also exciting cities like Charlottetown, Fredericton, Halifax and St. John’s.
Central Canada:
Quebec and Ontario are the provinces of Central Canada, and the exciting cities of Toronto, Ottawa (Canada’s capital city), Montreal, and Quebec City are found in this region. Excellent cuisine is to be found in these cosmopolitan centres, but also in the smaller villages and towns, where fresh, local ingredients are proudly featured. There are glorious wine regions, the largest skating rink in the world (the Rideau Canal), Parliament Hill, dense forests, and excellent lakeside camping grounds. Central Canada is a perfect mix of urban delights and outdoorsy adventure.
The Prairies:
In the prairie provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba is some of the most extraordinary natural beauty anywhere—from seemingly endless fields of wheat in the summer to almost Arctic conditions in the winter. This region is made for those who love hiking, boating, skiing, or fishing—and lots of space. At the same time, the cities and towns of Saskatchewan and Manitoba are incredibly diverse, friendly, and interesting—boasting a wonderful mix of immigrant cultures, cuisines, and celebrations.
The West:
Like Central Canada, the western provinces of British Columbia and Alberta feature an extraordinary mix of nature and ultra-urban delights. But the nature is on a different scale— bigger, taller, and more open. Think mountains, ocean (British Columbia), wineries, golf, whale watching, stunning gardens, and the mildest climate in Canada. World-renowned ski resorts Whistler and Banff are in this region, as are the famous Rocky Mountains. British Columbia’s city of Vancouver is one of the world’s most beautiful with an eclectic mix of ethnicities and influences, many from Asia. Alberta’s Calgary is one of the fastest-growing and newly affluent, thanks to an oil boom.
The North:
Canada’s North—encompassing the Yukon, Northwest Territories
and Nunavut—is one of the most striking examples of pristine wilderness left
in the world. Arctic creatures include polar bears, walruses, seals, white
wolves, snowy owls, and caribou. Yet, while this region draws rugged
adventurers and thrill-seeking tourists, it also contains some of Canada’s most
interesting, vibrant cities (e.g., Yellowknife, Whitehorse, Iqaluit) and amazing
arts festivals featuring Inuit art and culture as well as those from more recent
arrivals in the region. Read more…
