Old Toronto: Don Valley Parkway near Prince Edward Viaduct
The Don River defines the setting of Old Toronto — its deeply incised valley channels the Don Valley Parkway through a wooded urban corridor. The parkway follows the ravine on a north–south axis, linking downtown Toronto with the Don Valley and Highway 401, and ranks among the city’s principal road routes. Above it, the Prince Edward Viaduct carries Bloor Street East across the valley. Opened in 1918, the bridge was built with a lower deck intended for rapid transit; that provision later became part of Line 2 Bloor–Danforth. Together, the road, viaduct and river valley illustrate how Toronto fitted major infrastructure into a landscape that remains a defining green break within the city.

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.
