History At the time of first European contact and later colonization, Algonquian, Iroquoian and Inuit tribes were the peoples who inhabited what is now Quebec. Hélène Desportes, born July 7, 1620, to the French habitants (settlers) Pierre Desportes and his wife Françoise Langlois, was the first child of European descent born in Quebec
Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west and northward into the Arctic Ocean. It is the world's second largest country by total area, and shares land borders with the United States to the south and northwest. Canada is a federation composed of ten provinces and three territories; in turn, these may be grouped into regions. Western Canada consists of British Columbia and the three Prairie provinces (Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba). Central Canada consists of Quebec and Ontario. Atlantic Canada consists of the three Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia), along with Newfoundland and Labrador. Eastern Canada refers to Central Canada and Atlantic Canada together. Three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut) make up Northern Canada. Provinces have a large degree of autonomy from the federal government, territories somewhat less. Each has its own provincial or territorial symbols.

He sighted land on 24 June rediscovered of Canada's eastern shores and landed somewhere near Newfoundland, Maine or Cape Breton Island. King Henry VII gave him 10 pounds for "finding a new isle" and sponsored a new yoyage. Jaques Cartier did three expeditions to Canada. He sailed from Northern France in 1534, 1535-1536 and 1541-1542 and sailed up the St Lawerence River. He visited the sites of the present Quebec City and Montreal then Indian villages. Samuel de Champlain founded New France and Quebec City on July 3, 1608. He is important to Canadian history because he made the first accurate map of the coast and he helped establish the settlements. 9. Who founded the first permanent French settlement in Canada? Where? The first permanent French settlement attempt occurred in 1604 when Samuel de Champlain founded the first settlements in the Bay of Fundy region
They survived in Nova Scotia but they soon decided that their settlement was too far from the centre of fur trade and they chose to establish a new settlement along the St. Lawrence river. Some people decided to go back to Nova Scotia and they are the ancestors of the French-speaking Acadian peole today. Samuel de Champlain established to first settlement along the St. Lawrence river because of that he is known as the "Father of New France". The settlement had a good harbour and it was called Quebec. Most of the settlers died during the first winter. Samuel de Champlain realised that the colony needed more settlers to keep it alive. Unfortunately there were only 65 settlers in Quebec by 1627. By 1663 the population of New France was still quite small. Louis XIV decided to make New France a royal colony governed by the King. It ensured that more settlers would come to colony and it encouraged farming and industry. By 1700 New France was still not as great colony as Louis XIV wanted
settlement was called Port Royal. By 1607, France wanted to establish a new French settlement along the St. Lawrence River. French went there and came back and in 1610, some of them returned. They were the ancestors of the French speaking Acadian people in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick today. Champlain is also known as the "Father of New France", as he picked out the location of the first French settlement along the St. Lawrence River. The settlement was called Quebec. Most of the settlers died because of the winter and although Champlain tried to get more settlers, his efforts failed. By 1663, the population of New France was still very small. The settlers were trading and not farming or making settlements. Also war between French and the Iroquois made the settlers feel unsafe. Louis XIV ended the rule of fur traders and made New France a royal colony governed by the King. That ensured more settlers to come to New France. Still, by 1700, New
The official language is French. Quebec is the largest province in area and the second largest in population. Ontario Ontario has a larger population than any other province. About a third of Canada's people live there. About half of Ontario's people are of British or Irish descent. Ontario produces about half of Canada's manufactured goods and is the leading agricultural province. The territories are The Yukon Territory, The North-west Territories. Cities Montreal, Quebec and Toronto, Ontario are the two largest cities in Canada. They are the centres of two metropolitan areas, each of which has 3, 5 million people. Ottawa, Ontario, is the nation's capital. Government The form of a government is a Federal Republic. Each province has its own government. The territories are self governing, but the federal government plays a large role in their administration. The cabinet system of Canada unites the legislative and executive branches of the government
Ottawa Ottawa is the capital of Canada and a municipality within the Province of Ontario. Located in the Ottawa Valley in the eastern portion of Southern Ontario, the city lies on the southern banks of the Ottawa River, a major waterway forming the local boundary between the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec. The 2006 Census recorded the population at 812,129, making it the fourth largest municipality in the country and second largest in Ontario. Connected by several bridges to its Quebec neighbour , the City of Gatineau on the northern shores of the Ottawa River, the two cities had a combined 2006 population of over 1,130,000, making it the country's fourth largest metropolitan area. On December 31, 1857, Queen Victoria was asked to choose a common capital for the
mountains. The three Prairie Provinces are known for their rolling plains and their extreme climate with long, cold winters and hot, dry summers. Part of the Rocky Mountains are in the there. A lot of the Prairie Provinces' area is covered with farms producing wheat and other grains. The region is rich in oil and natural gas. In fact, Canada is the second largest oil reserve holder in the world, after Saudi Arabia. Central Canada which includes Ontario and Quebec is not the geographical centre of Canada. It is called that because it has historically been the political and economic centre of the country. Central Canada is the most heavily populated and industrialised area. In there lie the Great Lakes the largest body of fresh water in the world. Some of the first settlements in Canada were, naturally, built around those areas. In the Atlantic Provinces, the most important activities include fishing and farming of all sorts
melts the snow. Winters are mild and wet on the west coast, in cities such as Vancouver and Victoria. Territories and provinces Canada consists of 3 territories and 10 provinces. Very few people live in the territories, but it has more power on deciding important questions. Newest territoy is Nunawut, it became a territory in 1999. It was created from the eastern part od North- West territories. Quebec and Ontario are the biggest provinces. In the central part of Canada there are prairies and agriculture is very common. Alberta is rich in natural resources such as oil and natural gas. In Quebec and Ontario are many manufactories and industries. In the west there is maritime climate and so they fish and ship there. Toronto is the biggest city in Canada, with a population of 5,1 million people. It is
terrain and contains thousands of lakes. These lakes are the sources of rivers that break into great rapids and waterfalls used for hydroelectric production, providing power for pulp and paper mills, and a variety of other industries. Relatively few people live in the Canadian Shield because of its poor soil and cold climate. The Canadian Shield has much of Canada's mineral wealth, producing most of the country's iron ore. Central Canada, which includes Ontario and Quebec, is not really the geographic centre of Canada. The region gets its name because, historically, it has been the centre of political and economic power in the country. Canada's capital city is Ottawa, Ontario. Toronto and Montreal are the two largest cities in Canada. Central Canada is also the most heavily populated and industrialized area of Canada, particularly in the south around the Great Lakes and the St Lawrence River. The Great Lakes are the largest body of fresh water in the world
The northern part of Canada is called Eskimo land and there are very cold winters. Only in the southern part and the west coast is the climate as mild as in the western part of the United States. During the Ice Age almost all of Canada was covered time after time whit great sheets of ice. These sheets carried away much of Canada's soil to the United States. Parts of Canada were first settled by the French, part of it by the English. Picturesque Quebec is the most French, of Canada's big cities. Canada's largest city, Montreal, is also largely French. Next to Paris in France it is the largest French- speaking city in the world. Canada belongs to British Commonwealth of Nations. It rules itself in very much the way the United States. Its capital is Ottawa. The country is divided into provinces and territories. Both the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia are much bigger than the states of Texas.
In general Toronto is the cleanest and safest city in Canada. The city is also well-known for its three famous universities. Montreal is a city with almost 2 million people. Montreal has a harsh winter which makes it great for winter sports. The nation's capital is Ottawa. It's a government town. The population is about 1.2 million and that makes Ottawa the fourth- largest urban area in Canada. Quebec has a large French speaking majority, about 85% of French speaking Canadians live in Quebec. It's the oldest city in Canada. In appearance Quebec remains the most European of North American cities. Canada is a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. The head of state is Queen Elizabeth II. The governor-general is officially the representative of Queen Elizabeth II. The prime minister is the leader of the political party in power and is the head of the cabinet. There are two Houses of Parliament: the House of Commons and the Senate. The
The Pacific border of the coast range is ragged with fjords and channels. The highest point in Canada is Mount Logan (6,050 m), which is in the Yukon. The two principal river systems are the Mackenzie and the St. Lawrence. The St. Lawrence, with its tributaries, is navigable for over 1,900 miles (3,058 km). Government: Canada is a federation of ten provinces (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan) and three territories (Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Nunavut). Formally considered a constitutional monarchy, Canada is governed by its own House of Commons. While the governor-general is officially the representative of Queen Elizabeth II, in reality the governor-general acts only on the advice of the Canadian prime minister. History: The first inhabitants of Canada were native Indian peoples, primarily the Inuit (Eskimo)
Government that reports to the Parlament. The Prime Minister is the leader of the party that holds a majority in the Parlament. Every Province has it's own Parlament and Government. The monarchy is represented by the leutenantgovernor. The Frenchspeaking province of Canada (Quebec) is very different culturally. Since the 1960s there has been a strong movement to became an independent country (separatist movement). 80 % of Canada's French speaking people lives in Quebec. Canada has ten provinces and two territories (the capital of each is shown in parentheses): Alberta (Edmonton), British Columbia (Victoria), Prince Edwars Island (Charlottetown), Manitoba (Winnipeg), New Brunswick (Fredericton), Nova Scotia (Halifax), Nunavut (Iqaluit), Ontario (Toronto), Quebec (Quebec City), Saskatchewan (Regina), Newfoundland and Labrador (St. John's), Northwest Territories (Yellowknife) and Yukon Territory (Whitehorse)
concentrated on the eastern side of the Canadian Rockies. The Saint Elias Mountains in the Yukon hold some of country's highest mountains, including the highest, Mount Logan at 5,959 metres. The Appalachian mountain range extends from Alabama in the southern United States through the Gaspe Peninsula and the Atlantic provinces, creating rolling hills indented by river valleys. It also runs through parts of southern Quebec. The Appalachian mountains are an old range of mountains about 380 million years old. Notable mountains in the Appalachians include Mount JacquesCartier and Mount Carleton. Lakes Canada is known for having the most lakes in the world. There are about two million of them and they cover about 7.6% of its land. The southern parts of Quebec and Ontario, in the
coastal waters of Canada. Finally the contest of claims came down to two: England and France. French claims date from explorations by Jacques Cartier (1534) and Samuel de Champlain (1603). Neither Cabot's nor Cartier's explorations left any permanent settlers behind, but after Champlain's trip , in 1604 the French founded the first permanent settlement in what is now Canada. The first city founded by the french was Quebec. New France was generally the name given to the french colonies of Canada and Acadia. British settlements appeared along the Atlantic coast. As the colonies grew, a struggle for control over North America started between England and France. For almost a century Canada was caught up in the struggle for power, until in 1763 England finally gained control over almost all of Canada. Gradually the British started to move westward and new provinces and territories appeared

The Canadian Centennial was a year long celebration held in 1967 when Canada celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Canadian Confederation. The 1967 International and Universal Exposition, or Expo 67 as it was commonly known, was the general exhibition, category one World's Fair held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada from April 27 to October 29 The "Canadian Railroad Trilogy" is a song by Gordon Lightfoot that describes the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway. "Farewell to Nova Scotia" is a popular folk song from Nova Scotia of unknown authorship. It is believed to have been written just prior to or during the First World War. "Farewell to Nova Scotia" brings the listener back to an age when Nova Scotia was renowned for "wooden ships and iron men".
Territory and landscape Canada is one of the largest countries in the world. It covers nearly 4 million square miles. It is dividend into ten provinces( British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Alberta, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan, Newfoundland ) along with two territories( the Yukon, the Northwest territories ). The capital city is Ottawa. Canada is a country rich in forests. It borders in the south with The United States and it's surrounded in the west by the Pacific Ocean, in the east by the Atlantic Ocean and above by many smaller bays, but is also borderedd with Alaska in the north-west. To the north of Canada is the broad Canadian Shield, an area of rock scoured clean by the last ice age, thinly
gold with production of US$2.05 billion, copper US$1.47 billion, nickel US$1.45 billion, and zinc US$1.25 billion. There was also significant production of lead and iron. There are about 50 major gold mines in Canada and the country leads the world in technologies which extract gold from rock and soil. The nation is the world's largest producer of zinc and the fifth largest producer of lead. Among the provinces, Ontario is the top producer of non-fuel mineral resources, followed by Quebec, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland. Each year Canadian companies spend over US$600 million to find or develop new mines and fuel supplies. However, environmental concerns and increased regulation have led many Canadian mining companies to shift exploration elsewhere. Latin America is becoming a favorite choice for Canadian mining companies. While overall mineral production is dispersed throughout Canada, fuel production is concentrated in the west, with a few major exceptions
of the entire land area of the world. So the population density is 3.5 persons per sq.km. There are 10 provinces and 3 territories. The biggest provinces are Alberta, British Columbia and Manitoba. The biggest city is Montreal with 3.8 million people. The capital Ottowa has only 1.2 million people and is listed fourth biggest city. 32% of population is Canadian, 21% is English and 15.8% is French. First Nationist are only 4%. 80% of Canadians live in 3 urban areas concentrated in the Quebec City- Windsor Corridor, the British Columbia Lower Mainland, and the Calgary-Edmonton Corridor. 80% of the population live within 150km of the US border; 90% lives within 300km of the US border. Most First Nations live in reservations in the southern part of the country. If you look at the map of the world, you will notice what a huge country Canada is. It is the second largest country in the world, xceeded only by Russia. From St. John`s to Victoria Canada stretches about 7000km.
Canada. Canada is a very big country in the continent of North America. It is about 10 million square kilometres and that makes it the second largest country in the world after Russia. Quebec (the province) is six times as big as the UK. Canada borders the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, the Arctic Ocean and the USA. The capital of Canada is Ottawa and other main cities are Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. It is a very developed country. Montreal is the largest city and it is called the Paris of North America because most of the people there speak French. The population of Canada is 28 million people. It is a very multicultural country
Cities of Canada Ottawa is the capital of Canada and a municipality within the Province of Ontario. Located in the Ottawa Valley in the eastern portion of Southern Ontario, the city lies on the southern banks of the Ottawa River, a major waterway forming the local boundary between the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Connected by several bridges to its Quebec neighbour, the City of Gatineau on the northern shores of the Ottawa River, the two cities had a combined 2009 population of 1,220,674, making it the country's fourth largest metropolitan area. Although a recent StatsCan estimate in February 2010 surmises that the Ottawa metropolitan area has recently been surpassed by the Calgary metropolitan area as the Canada's fourth largest metropolitan area. There is no federal capital district in Canada. Although it does not

The crop, which previously had provided 60% of the nations' food needs, failed. Many families were evicted because they couldn't pay for their land. Hand in hand, starvation and diseases spreaded all across the country. As soon as spring began, people started emigrating to Canada - ships bringing lumber to England were glad to receive paying passengers. Almost every ship had a third of their passenger's die at sea or upon their arrival. On the shores of Quebec eyewitnesses saw hundreds literally flung on the beach, left in the mud, dying. Yet, it was only the potato crop that failed wheat, oats, pork, mutton etc. were excellent, but all was shipped to Europe to ease the starvation there. The British government refused to help with money or by opening soup-kitchens they were afraid that young rebels would buy guns and that the Irish would get used with free food and never work again
The population is 3.7 million people and there are many nationalities. Besides English and French there are also immigrants from Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Germany, Ukraine and Scandinavia. In Edmonton and Calgary there are also historic Chinatowns, and Calgary has Canada's third largest Chinese community. Geographical features Alberta covers an area of 661,848 square kilometres, an area about 5% smaller than Texas or 20% larger than France. This makes it the fourth largest province after Quebec, Ontario, and British Columbia. To the south, the province borders on the 49th parallel north, separating it from the U.S. state of Montana, while on the north the 60th parallel north divides it from the Northwest Territories. To the east the 110th meridian west separates it from the province of Saskatchewan, while on the west its boundary with British Columbia follows the 120th meridian west south from the Northwest Territories at 60°N until it reaches the Continental Divide at the

9. Ameerika Ühendriikide sünd Põhja-Ameerika koloiseerimine 16. sajandi algul jõudsid Põhja-Ameerikasse hispaania konkistadoorid, siis inglased prantslased, hollandlased jne. Väljarändajate sulgas olid esindatud kõik sotsiaalsed kihid. Oluline oli usuline taust: inglise puritaanid asustasid Ameerika kõige kirdepoolsemad alad Uus-Inglismaa, katoliiklased koloniseerisid idaranniku keskosa Maryland ja prantsuse hugenotid rajasid oma kodu idarannikul lõunaossa- Carolinasse. 17. sajandil oli koloniaid paljudel riikidel, kuid see tõi kaasa omavehelisi võitlusi. Esialgu tulid nendest võitjatena välja Inglismaa ja Prantsusmaa. /1626. A kaotasid New Torgi hollandalased/ 1763 kaotasid oma alad ka prantslased inglastele. /tänapäeval ainus prantsusekeelne piirkond veel Quebec/ Inglise kolooniate elukorraldus 1776 aastal tuli Philadelphias kokku teine kontinentaal...
Traditional Inuit way of life was influenced by the harsh climate and stark landscapes of the Arctic tundra from beliefs inspired by stories of the aurora to practicalities like homes made of snow. Inuit invented tools, gear, and methods to help them survive in this environment. Read on to learn more about traditional Inuit ways of life, and how Inuit culture has been changed over the past century. Geography Inuit communities are found in the Arctic, in the Northwest Territories, Labrador and Quebec in Canada, above tree line in Alaska (where people are called the Inupiat and Yupik), and in Russia (where people are called the Yupik people). In some areas, Inuit people are called "Eskimos" however many Inuit find this term offensive. The word "Inuit" means "the people" in the Inuktitut language. Inuit Homes In the tundra, where Inuit communities are found, there are not many building materials. No trees
6 million and 20.4 % According to the OECD/World Bank population statistics between 19902008 the world population growth was 27 % and 1,423 million persons Population Population growth is from immigration and, to a lesser extent, natural growth. About fourfifths of Canada's population lives within 150 kilometres (93 mi) of the United States border The majority of Canadians (approximately 80%) live in urban areas concentrated in the Quebec City Windsor Corridor Canada's national symbols are influenced by natural, historical, and Aboriginal sources. The use of the maple leaf as a Canadian symbol dates to the early 18th century The maple leaf is depicted on Canada's current and previous flags, on the penny, and on the Arms of Canada Other symbols: beaver, Canada Goose, Common Loon, the Crown, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and more recently, the totem pole and Inuksuk THANK YOU FOR WATHING
stones. For the next 33 years, during his daily mail route, Cheval carried stones from his delivery rounds and at home used them to build his Palais idéal, the Ideal Palace. First he carried the stones in his pockets, then a basket and eventually a wheelbarrow. He often worked at night, by the light of an oil lamp. 7.Habitat 67 (Montreal, Canada) Architect: Moshe Safdie Habitat 67 is a one-of-a-kind housing complex located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is built as a part of Expo-67. It was designed to integrate the variety and diversity of scattered private homes with the economics and density of a modern apartment building. The project was designed to create affordable housing with close but private quarters, each equipped with a garden. The building was believed to illustrate the new lifestyle people would live in increasingly crowded cities around the world. 8.Cubic Houses (Rotterdam, Netherlands) Architect: Piet Blom

Provintsid on Alberta, Briti Kolumbia, Manitoba, New Bruinswick, Newfoundland ja Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prints Edwardi saar, Quebec ja Saskatchewan. Kaks territooriumi on Yukoni ning Loodeterritoorium. Majandus. Kanada on väga kõrgelt arenenud riik (kuulub niinimetatud "Põhja" riikide hulka), mida ilmekalt tõestab see, et RKP ehk sissetulek ühe inimese kohta oli 1996. aastal koguni 22 333$. Kõrget arengutaset näitab ka see, et põllumajandus andis kõigest 2%, tööstus 26%, teenindus aga koguni 72% RKP-st. Haridustase ja eluolud

(ENE 4, 1989) (Canada, 2009) 4 2. KANADA AJALUGU Kanada põliselanikus on indiaani hõimud (algonkinid, atapaskid, irokeesid) ja eskimod. 1497 jõudis Põhja-Ameerika rannikule G. Caboto, 16. sajandil saabusid prantslased, 1543-36 uuris Saint Lawrence'i jõe piirkonda J. Cartier. Esimesed prantslaste asundused rajas 17. sajandi alguses S. de Champlain (Port Royal 1605, Quebec 1608). Koloniseeritud alasid nimetati Uus-Prantsusmaaks, seal kehtestati feodaalkord ja anti eesõigusi katolikule kirikule. 18. sajandil algas hoogne inglaste sissetung. Utrechti rahulepingu põhjal (1713) loovutasid prantslased inglastele Hudsoni lahe piirkonna, Nova Scotia ja Newfoundlandi. Pärast seitsmeaastast sõda sai Kanada (v.a. Saint-Pierre ja Miquelon) Pariisi rahu alusel Inglismaa valduseks. Inglismaa tunnustas Quebeci aktiga 1744
The Yukon and Columbia rivers, which both rise in Canada, also flow to the Pacific, but they do so through the United States. Five of Canada's rivers -- the St. Lawrence, Mackenzie, Yukon, Fraser, and Nelson -- rank among the world's 40 longest. 5. The territories and provinces Canada is composed of ten provinces and three territories. The provinces are Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan. The three territories are the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon. The provinces have a large degree of autonomy from the federal government, the territories somewhat less. Each has its own provincial or territorial symbols. The major difference between a Canadian province and a territory is that a province receives relatively greater power and authority. The youngest of the territories and provinces is Nunavut, created from the east portion of The Northwest territories
