CM Magazine: Beautiful Ontario Towns. map of Southern ontario that precedes the Introduction is a helpful aid that establishesthe larger context for readers unfamiliar with ontario's geography. http://www.umanitoba.ca/cm/vol8/no2/beautifulontariotowns.html
Extractions: excerpt: In Beautiful Ontario Towns , Fred Dahms explores the recent popularity and economic growth of ten Southwestern Ontario towns in relation to geography, geology, and history. He based his selection of towns upon the following criteria: "Each had to be within a two-hour drive of the major cities of Southern Ontario. None were to have a population over ten thousand, and none were to be swamped by creeping urbanization. The architecture of each community had to reflect local geology and building materials. All had to be appealing to visitors and to those who might wish to move to them permanently. The selection needed to reflect the diversity and complexity of Ontario's beautiful rural communities. Local economies had to be healthy and attractive to potential migrants. All needed to be engaging, prosperous places with friendly residents and helpful merchants." The following places were finally chosen: Creemore, Dunnville, Elora, Fergus, Meaford, Neustadt, Paisley, St. Jacbos, St. Marys and Thornbury. In or near these communities you will discover crafts, breweries, fine dining, historic limestone architecture, sandy beaches, and outstanding fishing, skiing, hiking and caving. Like most Ontario settlements, all began at dam sights providing power for sawmills and gristmills. In many, these early industrial buildings have been recycled into trendy shops or restaurants. In some, local culture dominates, while elsewhere, entrepreneurial activity has transformed the character of the towns. Many offer historic properties and new homes at prices far lower than any in the city. All provide pleasure and stimulation for the day-tripper or shopper, and affordable properties for those seeking a home away from the city.

Extractions: Covington, Kentucky Pullman Kids: Geography: Canada: Ontario contains pictures and descriptions of the province of Ontario, Canada. Ontario used to be known as Upper Canada. It is the second largest province and the most populated (i.e. more people live in Ontario than any other province). Its official language is English. Four of the five Great Lakes are partially in Ontario; Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, Lake Huron, and Lake Superior. The water flows from Lake Superior into Lake Huron into Lake Erie, then through Niagara Falls into Lake Ontario, and then through the Saint Lawrence Seaway (i.e. St. Lawrence River) into the Atlantic Ocean. Please help support the Pullman Kids web site by purchasing books about Ontario from our children's book store. We have listed picture books and novels for children there.

Extractions: Covington, Kentucky External Links Pullman Kids: Geography: Canada provides pictures and descriptions of various parts of the country. Canada is the largest country (i.e. in area) in the world. It is composed of ten provinces and three territories. It is bounded on the western edge by the Pacific Ocean, on the northern edge by the Arctic Ocean, on the eastern edge by the Atlantic Ocean, and on the southern edge by the United States of America (USA) . The edge running between countries is called a "border". In Canada, the country of the United States of America (U.S.A.) is either called "the States" (as in "We're going to the States for the weekend") or "the U.S." (as in "There's no public health care in the U.S."). If you want to enrage a Canadian then go ahead and refer to the States as "America". After all, Canada is in North America and so is Mexico A popular symbol of Canada is the mountie. A mountie is a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (R.C.M.P.). Their fancy dress uniform is brilliant red as illustrated in the photo taken on Parliament Hill, Ottawa on Canada Day. Canada Day is July 1st and is Canada's birthday. It used to be called Dominion Day.

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.
