1. Viewed by satellite, the face of Canada reveals six clearly defined landform regions: Cordillera, Interior Plains, Canadian Shield, Great Lakes–St. Lawrence, Appalachian, and Arctic. All these regions occupy significant portions of Canada’s vast expanse. Each possesses similar geologic structures, physical features, climatic conditions, soils, and vegetation. Considered as a whole, Canada’s landforms encompass an unrivaled diversity of landscapes: spectacular mountain ranges, sweeping plains, rocky uplands, temperate lowlands, and frigid tundra.
