Where is Canada?
On the map
Canada is a large state (the second in the world after Russia), which is located in the northern part of America. The country's western neighbor is Alaska, the southern neighbor is the United States.
From the west, this country is washed by the Pacific Ocean, from the east by the Atlantic, and from the north by the Arctic Ocean.
Given where Canada is, it is not difficultto guess that the climatic conditions in the country are very difficult. Temperature indicators for winter and summer in different parts of the state are different. But in general, we can talk about a severe long winter, when the air temperature can fluctuate from -15 to -45 degrees, as well as a very hot summer, when the thermometer's column rises from +30 to +40 degrees. The most comfortable in terms of climate is the coast of British Columbia and especially Vancouver Island. Here the climate is temperate, and therefore the winters are mostly mild, with rains. That's why this part is the most attractive, desired for emigrants, which are many here.
The administrative-territorial division is represented by 10 provinces and 3 territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut).
Favorable geographical locationled to significant natural resources, which made the country one of the leaders of the mining industry. The key role in the economy of the country was played by the raw materials industry, especially logging and oil production. As a result, today Canada is considered one of the most prosperous and wealthy countries in the world with very high per capita income.
In addition, the state is well developed sectorservices, tourism. Unbelievably beautiful at any time of the year, with grandiose snow-covered mountains, crystal clear lakes, full of fish, delightful forest thickets and nature reserves, Canada is a corner of the world that everyone should see.
