    Canada For First Time Visitors

    Canada is a vast country - the second largest country in the world after Russia. Canada encompasses territory from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from the high Arctic to the northern border of the continental U.S.A. Although very much a "northern" country the terrain and geography of Canada is very diverse. As well as the popular image of Canada as a country of pristine forests and snowy vistas, there are also deserts and badlands, temperate rain forests and long and wide beaches. continue

    Geography for writers Geography can really perplex a writer, not so much because of the mountains and lakes themselves, but because we're always renaming everything. Then there are confusing bits. Granada is in Spain, for example, while Grenada is in the Caribbean. This essay will help you stay current on the geopolitical lingo. It includes information on Canada, the United States, Africa, East Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, the Pacific and the Poles (North and South, not Walesa and Chopin). Feel free to e-mail us with comments, corrections or updates. CANADA Adjectives Do not inflect the names of provinces when used adjectivally. Huh? Put in plain English, that means it's okay to use Albertan as a noun, but not as an adjective. "The Alberta doctor saw many Albertans in her practice." This doesn't work for all provinces though. There is no real adjectival form for Saskatchewan or Ontario, although in a pinch you can get away with Saskatchewaners and Ontarians. People from PEI can just be called Islanders. Quebeckers can be called Quebecois. St. John's and Saint John

    60. Census Geography - Highlights And Analysis
    The population of nunavut increased 8.1%. This gain represented 57% ofthe total growth in canada's population between 1996 and 2001.
    http://geodepot.statcan.ca/Diss/Highlights/Page4/Page4_e.cfm

    Geography
    Index
    Three provinces and one territory recorded growth rates above the national average of 4.0% between 1996 and 2001. By far, Alberta had the highest rate of growth, 10.3%, more than 2.5 times the national average. Ontario gained 6.1%, while British Columbia rose 4.9%. The population of Nunavut increased 8.1%. The 2001 Census counted 2,974,807 people in Alberta, which comprised 9.9% of the total population enumerated by the census, compared with 9.3% in 1996. Alberta's booming economy attracted an estimated net inflow of 140,000 migrants from the rest of the country over the 1996-2001 period. This was in direct contrast to the period between 1986 and 1991, when more people left Alberta than moved into it. The positive net growth in Alberta's population was the strongest since the early 1980s at the height of the "oil boom". The census enumerated 11,410,046 people in Ontario, an increase of more than 656,000 since 1996, the largest growth in absolute numbers among the provinces. This gain represented 57% of the total growth in Canada's population between 1996 and 2001. Ontario accounted for 38% of the nation's population in 2001. The 6.1% growth in Ontario was due to a high level of immigration, as more than one-half of the immigrants who came to Canada during the past five years settled in Ontario. Unlike Alberta, Ontario's net interprovincial migration, while positive, did not contribute significantly to its population growth.
