Definition Canada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The capital of Canada is Ottawa, home of the nation\'s Parliament. Both the Governor General of Canada, who exercises the personal prerogatives delegated by the monarch, and the Prime Minister, who is the head of government, have official residences in Ottawa.
Originally a union of former French and British colonies, Canada is a Commonwealth Realm, and a member of La Francophonie and the Commonwealth of Nations. Canada is officially bilingual:
French is the majority language of Quebec, and is widely spoken in New Brunswick; it is also spoken in Eastern, Northern and Southwestern Ontario and in specific communities throughout Atlantic Canada and the West.
English is the majority language elsewhere with the exception of certain communities, and the territory of Nunavut where the majority of the population speak Inuktitut.
Canada is a technologically advanced and industrialized nation, largely self-sufficient in energy due to its relatively large deposits of fossil fuels, nuclear energy generation, and hydroelectric power capabilities. Its economy has traditionally relied heavily on the abundance of natural resources and trade, particularly with the United States, with which it has a long, extensive relationship (see U.S.-Canada relations). Although the modern Canadian economy has become widely diversified, exploitations of natural resources remain an important driving force of many of country\'s regional economies.
Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories.
