Canadá

Canada is located north of the United States, and together with it and Alaska, they form the North American subcontinent.

Its west coast is bathed by the Pacific Ocean, the south by the Atlantic, and the north by the Arctic Ocean.

Canada, with 9.9 million square kilometers, is the second-largest country in the world, only after Russia.

It also has the longest coastline in the world, with a total of 243,000 km.

If we talk about population, Canada has nothing less than 36 million inhabitants. But although it seems like a lot, given the size of the country, the average number of inhabitants per square kilometer is 4, so you can easily enjoy great peace and tranquility.

21% of the population is foreign, with a large majority being second or third-generation immigrants. It’s also noteworthy that there is a lot of Asian immigration, which has contributed a lot to Canadian customs.

Canada’s relatively recent colonial past makes people very tolerant and have a very open mindset in which they consider anyone who comes from abroad as one of their own.

Canada is divided into 10 provinces and 3 territories: Alberta, British Columbia, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Nunavut, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador, the Northwest Territories, and the Yukon.

The Canadian government system is widely admired worldwide, as Canada’s education, healthcare, and safety are widely recognized.

In Canada, there is a constitutional monarchy and a parliamentary democracy, with Justin Trudeau as Prime Minister for the Liberal Party

Toronto, with almost 3 million inhabitants, is a very cosmopolitan city with a fast-paced and fun nightlife. No wonder it’s known as the New York of Canada!

In Toronto, you can enjoy a wide variety of events, concerts, musicals, museums, restaurants… and if you get bored of the city, just outside Toronto are the Great Lakes, one of the great attractions of this country.

Despite its size, Toronto is a very safe city and it is easy to get around. Just remember to bring a warm jacket to combat the low temperatures and strong winds!

Vancouver has 2 million inhabitants and over 30% of them are of Asian descent, contributing to the city’s great cultural diversity.

Vancouver cites are known for being very welcoming, respectful, and friendly. The people here are more than used to welcoming foreigners as one of their own.

What we love most about this city is that it perfectly combines the dynamism and opportunities of a big city with the tranquility and comfort of smaller places.

In addition, Vancouver is surrounded by numerous natural parks that you can visit any weekend to do outdoor sports or have a picnic.

Montreal, located in the province of Quebec, is also known as the capital of Canadian culture and was one of the first cities founded in the country. Today, it has more than 1.7 million inhabitants and a great university atmosphere.

As a fun fact, you’ll be interested to know that ice hockey, Canada’s most important sport, was invented here.

Montreal has a lot of history and it’s delightful to stroll through its streets in the fall and spring.

Canada has more than 2 million lakes! Of which more than 31,000 have an area of between 3 and 100 km², and 563 have more than 100 km².

And many of its National Parks are the size of countries.

Canada is also home to many unique species in the world. In total, it has 2.4 million caribou (a majestic cousin of the reindeer), 15,000 polar bears, and 22 different species of whales swimming in its waters.

Canada is crossed from coast to coast by the Great Trail of Canada, the longest path in the world. With a total of 24,000 kilometers, it’s longer than the Great Wall of China, which is “only” 8,851 kilometers long.

This simply shows once again the great cultural diversity of the country, which, fortunately for food lovers, also translates into a great culinary variety.

In Canada, 1 in 2 citizens has a university education, making this country the most educated in the world.

Although many people think it’s ice hockey, the national sport actually ranks second.

Specifically, from the maple trees in the province of Quebec.

Canada is a country for true adventurers. Here, there are thousands of activities that you can do in stunning natural settings. From surfing on icy beaches, kayaking among icebergs and humpback whales, rafting with huge waves, paddle surfing with orcas…not suitable for the faint of heart!

It seems that in Nunavut, the northernmost human settlement in the world and bordering the North Pole, they have enabled a Canadian postal code so that children (and not so children) and Santa Claus can maintain correspondence.
