Mississauga: Highway 403 - Highway 407 Eastbound Ramp
The Ottawa River defines the setting of Ottawa — its broad valley and surrounding lowlands have accommodated a capital that extends far beyond Parliament Hill. In the city’s west end, Highway 416 meets Eagleson Road at a large interchange serving Kanata and the wider suburban road network. Highway 416 is the principal north–south route connecting Highway 401 near Prescott with Highway 417 in Ottawa. Kanata grew as a planned community and is now known for its technology sector and the Canadian Tire Centre, home arena of the Ottawa Senators. These arterial roads illustrate the infrastructure linking residential districts, employment areas and Canada’s national capital.

Few cities in Ontario have a history as closely tied to the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation as Mississauga. The city takes its name from the Anishinaabe people whose territory once extended along the north shore of Lake Ontario. Incorporated as a city in 1974, Mississauga has grown into a major urban centre west of Toronto, with a dense business district around Square One and the Civic Centre. Its southern edge meets Lake Ontario, while the Credit River reaches the lake at Port Credit, a waterfront district with a marina and parks.

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.
