Beautiful landscapes of Canada
Canada is located in North America and stretches all the way from the Atlantic to the Pacific, being made up of ten Provinces and three Territories. To the North is the Artic ocean; Davis Strait on the North East separates it from Greenland, to the East is the Atlantic Ocean; the South is bordered by the United States of America and the West by the Pacific Ocean and Alaska.
A country of outstanding natural beauty, Canada has a wide variety of landscapes; the mountains, the prairies, lakes and rivers with many national and provincial parks to protect the habitats. With a total land mass of 9,984,670 sq km (3,855,103 sq mi), Canada is the second largest country in the world. There are more lakes and inland waters in Canada than any other country, in fact 7.6% or 755,180 sq km (291,577 sq) is made up of fresh water.
Most images of Canada refer to the Mounties, bears, snow or the Rocky Mountains with the amazing turquoise lakes though there is truly more to this vast landscape. Tourism is a large part of the economy with the abundant natural resources quickly turning Canada into a rich and vibrant country that is a permanent listing at the top of the best places to live. With distinct seasons – the winters are cold with plentiful snow and then warm summers, the best way to survive is to make the most of natures offerings
Skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling are popular pastimes and great exercise and fun. In the summer, hiking, camping and exploring the great outdoors are fantastic ways to spend your free time. This is especially true when you are amongst the most breathtaking and fabulous scenery the world has to offer!

I’m sitting here in the mountains of lovely Guatemala, away from the frozen prairies of Kansas. But, if it were summer I’d wish to be in Canada. Viva todos de las Americas! This new world is very beautiful!

Most of the scenes in the photographs contained snow and ice. Those are the most dramatic of course. Canada is a beautiful country with beautiful people. It just needs to hope that Global Warming becomes a reality.

I am not a Canadian, but I wish I would be one day as I have applied for immigration to Canada. If God wanted to reside somewhere on the earth, He would sure choose Canada. Here you can feel the power and mercy of God the best.
I love Canada and its people, though an Iranian.
