Extractions: Main What is Ontario? Geography of Canada's (Perhaps North America's future) Heartland According to Thomas Courchene, one of Canada's foremost economists, Ontario has evolved into one of North America's leading economic regions, and may become the new heartland of North America. So what makes Ontario so special? Geography, beit Physical, Political, or Economic, is perhaps the primary rationale behind this bold statement, and so is the focus of this week's post. -Ontario: The Alpha Province As of 2000, Ontario accounted for -Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Lowlands>flat and rolling landscapes, reflects the underlying sedimentary rock. The St. Lawrence Lowlands subregion shaped by the Champlain Sea, which receded 10,000 years ago, leaving behind mineral deposits that make the land very fertile and agrable.The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Lowlands region form Ontario's southern boundary with the United States, Manitoba lies to the West, Hudson/James Bays lie to the north, and Quebec to the east -Canadian Shield> result of solidification of molten rock 3 billion years ago. Landscape altered by the glacial erosion caused by the movement of ice sheets during an ice age 18,000 years ago. Since it is essentially solid rock, is not desirable in terms of agriculture. Climate, soils, and physiography combine to limit agriculture. However, the region does have a vast forest, superb scenery(hello, tourists), and vast mineral wealth. Encompasses most of Ontario between the Great Lakes and Hudson Bay.

Extractions: Craig Space Historia : Basic Geography of Ontario The most prominent important feature of Ontario is arguably the Great Lakes . The Great Lakes are more like freshwater inland seas than lakes found in other parts of the world. They provide an superb means of travel and trade, and the rich agricultural potential of the region is beyond calculation. When you consider the countless smaller lakes and rivers north of the Great Lakes, the region is well-suited for the development of trading and farming societies, though the winters are harsh. Southern Ontario was the centre of a rich Native cultural zone. Because of the lake system, Southern Ontario is separated by water from the United States, so it is seen as a peninsula , surrounded by water on all sides (except the north). The border separating the U.S. from Canada reinforces this geographical feeling. The Great Lakes basin drains into the Atlantic Ocean via the mighty St. Lawrence River , once called "Canada's Highway". The Canadian Shield occupies most of Northern Ontario (and a big chunk of Canada). The shield is a massive, very stable plate set in the middle of the country. Its precambrian rock is the oldest existing geographical feature in the world. Over time, the hard rock of the shield has been eroded and scraped clean by glaciers, lakes, seas, rainfall and wind. It's pock-marked with thousands of lakes and rivers. The ancient rock is rich in minerals and the land is filled with bountiful primary resources, though the climate is vicious and the environment often hostile to human habitation. It takes a resourceful culture to survive there. Much of it is still totally inaccessible to the modern world.
