About Canada
Stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific and north into the Arctic, Canada is the second-largest country on Earth by total area. Its capital, Ottawa, sits near the Ontario-Quebec boundary in the populous southeast, while vast boreal forests, prairies, mountain ranges, and tundra unfold beyond. A federation of ten provinces and three territories in northern North America, Canada is officially bilingual in English and French.
- Canada has the longest coastline of any country, measuring over 200,000 kilometres along the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic oceans.
- The name Canada comes from 'kanata,' a St. Lawrence Iroquoian word meaning village or settlement.
- Alert, a military and weather station in Canada's Nunavut territory, is the northernmost continuously inhabited place on Earth.
