Confederation, Canada was formed as a federal dominion of four provinces

increasing autonomy from the United Kingdom

active volcanoes, notably Mount Meager, Mount Garibaldi, Mount Cayley, and
the Mount Edziza volcanic complex
The volcanic eruption of the Tseax Cone in 1775 was among Canada's worst
natural disasters, killing 2,000 Nisga'a people and destroying their village in

CANADA Geography Canada is the world's second largest country in total area after Russia , since it covers nearly 10 million square kilometres, but is one of the most sparsely populated, with only about 34 million inhabitants. The majority of them live within 300 kilometres of Canada's southern border. Much of the rest of Canada is uninhabited or thinly populated, because the country has a rugged terrain and severe climate. Canada extends across the continent of North America, from Newfoundland on the Atlantic coast to British Columbia on the Pacific coast and northward into the Arctic Ocean. Canada shares land borders with the United States to the south and north-west. Canada is a land of great variety. Towering mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and lush, green forests make Canada's far west a beautiful region. Farther inland, fields of wheat and other grains cover Canada's vast prairies
