Economic Importance Of Physical Diversity In Canada

These two regions offer unique opportunities for more innovative and creative forms of economic development. North-eastern Ontario has a larger population than the North-western Ontario since it’s closely tied to mining. Whereas, North-western Ontario is closely tied to forestry therefore experiencing a lesser population. The economy in the North-western Ontario faced a downturn during the forest sector crisis with the region outside of Thunder Bay bearing the brunt of the employment and population adjustment. The North-eastern has been sustained by its mining sector , however there is a redistribution of population towards the five largest urban centres including Greater Sudbury, Thunder Bay, Sault Ste. Marie , North Bay (53,966),

Extending from the Atlantic in the east, to the Pacific in the west and northward into the Arctic Ocean, Canada is one of the most prosperous nations on Earth.

Canada is a very large country, with areas of land in various climate regions, and land regions, thus having many ecozones that differentiate from another. The most populated ecozone in Canada is the Mixedwood Plains; the ecozone we are located in, named after the mixedwood forests that are native to the area. The Mixedwood Plains is one of the smallest of the Canadian ecozones, spanning only 175 963 kilometres squared. The Mixedwood Plains is bordered by three of the great lakes on the southern side of the ecozone, and comes up along the St Lawrence river to southern Quebec, and fills the tip of Ontario.

Oil has become extremely vital in our society, so vital that it has affected developed and developing countries. It is a massive contributor to economic growth as well as environmental destruction. The Alberta Oil Sands has destroyed acres of local ecosystems, but has also achieved and ensured that Canada stays as an economic power.

The population of Canada in 2014 was at 35, 540, 400 approximately. It increased around 1.1 percent over the last year (2013).

As the population keeps raising, Canada’s energy demand will also increasing as expected in future. Natural resources and the human survival and reproduction are tightly linked together. The abundant resources can let human beings to live with a steady, and even better living environment and standard. Canada is a country which with plentiful resources, especially in crude oil, coal and other traditional energy are rich in reserves. Canada puts a lot of effort in promote clean energy and renewable energy’s research, development and utilization. It gives people and other country a deep impression.

Canada’s Economy is based mostly on natural resources such as fur trade, farming, fishing, forestry, and mining.

The fur where exported back to Europe and Canadian Codfish was dried and salted and sent to Europe as well.

Canada’s large physical size benefits Canada in many ways such as agriculture, expansion, and large amounts of natural resources. Firstly, Canada has large amounts of agricultural land that not only generates money for the country but also provides jobs to many Canadian citizens.A large amount of agricultural land allows Canada to export the excess food that we produce, this ensures that the country has a steady source of income throughout most of the year.

This not only helps Canada's economy but also helps Canada grow its population from people coming in looking for jobs, further improving Canada’s economy. Lastly, Canada’s massive size means

Canada is the 2nd largest nation on Earth with a total land area of 9,984,670 sq km, and is the largest nation on the North American continent. Although Canada is the second largest country on Earth and the largest in North America, most of Canada's land is part of a rather inhospitable land that is characterized by tundra and arctic features. Consequently, due to Canada's very northern location, most of the Canadian population lives towards the United States border where the most prime locations of land are located. The hospitable land is in the eastern part of the Canadian country is characterized by woodlands and farmland, in this area the widely populated cities of Toronto, Quebec City, Ottawa and Montreal are located here. In the western

Canada has many different natural resources. I have also become aware that us as Canadians have such poor management of these natural resources, despise their sensitive nature.

Out of the seven landform regions Canada consists of, I believe that the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Lowlands is the most beneficial to our country due to its large population, an abundance of industries, and excellent farmland. Firstly, despite it being the smallest landform region, it is the most populated (containing 50% of Canada’s entire population). This means cities are required to be built and developed (creating numerous jobs and tourist attractions, boosting our economy), which can found all over the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Lowlands (ex. Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Quebec City). Secondly, there is an excellent reason why this region is nicknamed “Canada’s industrial and urban heartland” and that is due to the fact that 70%

Even though Canadian government is showing protective approach presently because of several factors that have affected the land, and has taken the country 's wealth to another country. But some believe that because of the foreign investment the wealth of the country has increased, and this has contributed to the overall development of the Canada and the world. Today, there is so much investment done and this looks like it is going to increase in future, and this has shown sign of rejection from the country’s environmentalists because it is taking away the natural resources and polluting the environment. Even though the nation has been benefited, there is contrary feeling towards it. There is different opinions and people are worried about the long run benefits or effects (Avery, Glossop, & Olexiuk, 2013).
