About Canada
Canada is bordered by three oceans - the Arctic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean
and the Atlantic Ocean. The Great Lakes, shared by the United States and
Canada, consist of one fifth of the world's fresh surface water! Canada
is 9,984,670 km2. That's almost the same size as the whole of
the continent of Europe and about a third the size of Africa. You could
fit the United Kingdom into Canada almost 40 times! Approximately 85% of
Canadians live within 300 km of the US border! There are six times zones
in Canada! Lake Superior is so large that it has its own tide! The lake
rises and falls a few centimeters due to the gravitational pull of the
moon. Waves obscure the tide so much that it is difficult to measure!
There are many climatic variations in Canada, ranging from the
permanently frozen ice caps north of the 70th parallel to the lush
vegetation of British Columbia's west coast. On the whole, however,
Canada has four very distinct seasons, particularly in the more
populated regions along the US border. Daytime summer temperatures can
rise to 350C and higher, while lows of -150C are
not uncommon in winter. More moderate temperatures are the norm in
spring and fall. Over the years, Canadians have adapted extremely well
to the colder periods of weather by installing heat in housing and cars,
by having heated public transportation systems, and in some instances -
in walkways to and from buildings in schools.
Educational System
In Canada, education is regulated by each separate provincial government
through the individual ministries of education. The ministries of
education oversees smaller bodies called boards of education or district
school boards (such as the Toronto District School Board) which oversee
the individual schools. There are 10 provinces and three territories,
each with their own way of organizing education, but there are some
generalizations that one can make about Canadian education. Most
children attend publicly-funded schools which are run by the ministries,
though some children do attend private schools. These private schools
are run by independent operators who must conform to
government guidelines regarding education. There are some children who
are taught at home by their parents or tutors. These children are said
to be "home schooled". Which school children attend most often depends
on where they live. In the public school system, a certain school
services a certain region; all the children who live within that region
will attend that school. In some provinces, students from outside a
school's region may apply to go to school there. This generally happens
when a school has a reputation for excelling in a certain academic area.
Students attending a private school may come from many different areas.
The schools may have dormitories for out-of-town and overseas students
to live in. The Canadian system of schooling requires 12 years of
education before a High School Diploma is awarded. After this, students
have the option of joining a two year Associate' degree or a 4-year full
Bachelor's Degree.
