These are the common vegetation ofCotton grass, sedge, dwarf heath, shrubs,mosses and lichens. At the most southernpoint there is tree line in between The Arcticand other biomes. The physical geographyof the arctic is quiet flat with low mountainstowards the cordillera. Most of the ground isrocky and not suitable for agriculture. TheArctic was formed by continental platescolliding with each other and ice ages withglaciers receding has caused themountains to become more gentle hills.
The Hudson baycompany was set up inthe park. You can visitthe first settlements of it.There are also manyactivity’s to do duringthe day such as hikingand boat tours aroundthe bay. It is located onthe edge of the Hudsonbay and wraps aroundthe north west part ofthe bay.

Naturel recourses
The Canadian arctic is filled with a lot of naturel recourses such as naturel gas and oil. These depositsstill exist due to the fact the climate change is making drilling in the arctic a viable option. In addictionthere is also large amounts of diamond deposits it parts which have also just been unlocked from thereceding of glaciers. This is there second highest amount of gdp per industry at 439.2 Million. Thishowever only makes up about 20% of there employment as told by statistics Canada.
The population of the arctic is verysparsely populated but what smallcommunities exist tend to be on the coastnear the ocean is lower elevation places.
The climate is pretty similar all over the arctic. Itranges from -54c in the coldest months and barelygets above freezing in the summer in parts. Thisdoesn’t effect the population as much as locationsince the temperature ranges don’t really change.

Most eastern region of Canada. East of theCanadian shield and west of the Atlantic ocean. Itis north of Maine and south of Newfoundland andLabrador.
The Appalachian region was formed by the oceanic plate colliding with the northAmerican plate. This caused the continental plate to be pushed up wards and themountains to be created. Then they were made to be more rolling hills like orhighlands from ice ages happening and glacier receding. There for the topographyof the Appalachians are rolling hills, highlands, fjords and boreal forest.
Fjords in new Brunswick are something you should visitbecause they are a naturel phenomena that happen fromthe water eroding the bay and edging out parts of hills untilthey collapse and it repeats this process. These createnaturel peaks to jump off into the water and providesamazing views.

This is located just east of shaginaw.
The Appalachian mounts are full of coal andnaturel gas. This due from the plate collisionforming mountains where these recourses arestored. This is the fourth highest part of the gdp at4 million dollars. It also employs about half thepopulation of this region is employed in some partconnected to these naturel recourses.
The population of the Appalachianregions tends to live in more valley likeregions or highlands. This is similar to thepopulation in the cordillera. It is alsoquite dense compared to the interiorplains.
The climate appears not to affectsettlement patterns in the Appalachian.How ever most like to live on the coastalparts and where there tends to be moreprecipitation.

The St. Lawrence lowlands is locatedon the St Laurence river and right inbetween the Canadian shield andAppalachian regions.
lowland's present landscape are the result of the last continental glaciation, followed by marinesubmergence, emergence and, finally, river erosion and deposition. Once this all happened the riverbecame smaller until it size today and it causes the soil to be very ritch in nutrients making it a very forestedarea.
A place you should visit in this region is oldQuebec. It is located right on the StLaurence river and is right next to Quebeccity. It is one of the oldest cities in Canada.It also has the field where the battlebetween the English and French wasfought. It also has small Fjords on the riverand rolling his which make for greatphotos.

The main naturel recourse in the region is the very fertile soil. This makesagriculture the biggest part of it’s gdp. But there is also naturel gas andfresh water and mining.
Mining and Oil and Gas extraction – 6% (8.7 billion)
Agriculture, forestry, fishing, hunting – 3.5% (4.9 billion)
Primary Agriculture – 3% (4.1 billion)
The population appears to not be affectedby topography and is very dense. Most ofthe towns are set up along the river. It ishowever a highly populated area.
The population is affected by the temperatureas this region keeps a pretty consistenttemperature. They how ever tend to live inhigh precipitation areas for agroculture
