Tudor and Cashel: Highway 62 near Jordan Lake Road, Looking South
Toronto straddles the Don River valley in southern Ontario, and the ravines cutting through the city have guided both its green corridors and major transport routes. Highway 401, officially the Macdonald–Cartier Freeway, crosses northern Toronto at Leslie Street beside the high-rise district of Don Mills. This broad east–west route is part of the Greater Toronto Area’s road network, while the Don River continues south to Lake Ontario. Toronto began as the town of York in 1793 and was incorporated under its present name in 1834. Metropolitan development here sits alongside a far-reaching system of ravines, parks and neighbourhoods shaped by the waterfront and river valleys.

Built around the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence water system, Ontario grew into Canada’s most populous province. Its vast northern interior lies on the Canadian Shield, a terrain of exposed rock, boreal forest and innumerable lakes, while the south concentrates most cities and farms along the Great Lakes. Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario give the province an exceptional freshwater horizon; Niagara Falls is its best-known natural landmark. Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, is a major cultural and economic centre, while Algonquin Provincial Park, founded in 1893, represents a long tradition of protected wilderness.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
