The country of Canada has ten provinces, three territories, six distinct climate zones, animals ranging from polar bears to moose to orcas, and food ranging from poutine to maple syrup. Canada's national sport is hockey, but basketball began here. We gave the world Ryan Reynolds, Keanu Reeves, Jim Carey and Michael J Fox, Bryan Adams, Justin Beiber, Neil Young and Shania Twain. We are rich in natural resources, have two official languages, and are known for our friendly, polite citizens.
