Canada has ten provinces and three territories in five main regions: the Atlantic area, Central Canada, the Prairies, the West Coast and the North.
Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador make up the Atlantic region. The main industries include fishing, farming, forestry, tourism and mining. Central Canada is made up of Ontario and Quebec. These two provinces together account for almost half of Canada’s population. The Prairies include the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. This region is mainly flat and fertile --excellent for farming and abundant in energy resources. The Rocky Mountains begin in Alberta and have some of the largest peaks in North America. British Columbia has very nice mountain ranges and forests where natural resources such as lumber and fish are considered the cornerstone of the economy. Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut make up the Canada's North Region. This region is great for oil, natural gas, gold, lead, zinc and make up 1/3 of Canada's land mass.
