My Travels, Volume 5: The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Lowland

We have now reached the most populous region of Canada, the Great Lakes-St.Lawrence Lowland. Now you may be asking why is the smallest region, the most populous region. This is because millions of years a go, cracks in the earths surface lead the St.Lawrence to sink and in turn caused the Atlantic Ocean to flood the mainland. The flood however helped to make for rich soil and by the days of exploration, many people were choosing to live hear because of the rich soils great crop surplus. Though this area is heavily industrialized because of big cities like Toronto and Montreal, it has a wide array of forest as the entire region is a river valley that encourages tree growth. This region is known to have a climate that is continental. So since it was summer, we enjoyed some nice heat(low 20's temperature, though if it was winter it would've been the opposite(-5 below). We took some time to visit Toronto, while we were there we were able to see one of the largest towers in the world, the CN Tower. We also went right at the Canada-US border to visit Niagara Falls. Our last leisure activity was sitting in on a Montreal Canadiens game at the Bell Centre. Now off we go to our final region, the Appalachians.
