A Brief Overview of Canada

3. Canada is located in the Northern and
Western Hemispheres of the globe
Canada is bounded on the north by the Arctic Ocean, on
the west by the
Pacific Ocean and on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and
its associated bodies of
water, including Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea. Its only
international land
boundary is which the United States—on the
northwestern, between Canada and
the state of Alaska, and on the south, where the U.S-
Canada border is 6,416km
long.

5. Canada is surrounded by three of the
Earth’s major oceans and, to the south,
the United States, with which it shares
a 3,000-mile-long border – the longest
unguarded border in the world.

6. Canada is rich in natural recourses =. It is a world leader of
mineral exports and produces and exports many of the
minerals needed for modern industrial economies, although a
few minerals, such as manganese, chromium, bauxite, and tin,
must be imported. Its soils, which are especially rich in the
three prairie provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and
Manitoba, are intensively utilized and make Canada one of the
world‘s largest exporters of agricultural products.
Forests cover much of the land, and Canada is the world‘s
largest exporter of newsprint and a leading supplier of lumber,
pulp, paper, and wood products.

7. Forests in Canada are a major natural
resource, with an abundance of
timber, which is harvested for use by
Canadians, as well as traded with
other countries around the world.
The forests are also home to abundant
wildlife.

8. Canada also has a large supply of
natural energy resources, such as
coal, oil, and natural gas – enough
to meet its own needs and sell the
rest to other countries.

9. Good soil in Canada enables farmers to grow
crops for the inhabitants and have enough
left over to trade with other countries.
About 5% of Canada’s land is arable
(farmable)
While this may seem like only a small amount
of land, 5% of Canada is actually quite large
(remember that Canada is the largest country
in the Western Hemisphere).
