Canada

Canada, the world’s second largest country by area, occupying approximately the northern two-fifths of the continent of North America, is an area of unspoiled landscape.

Although Canadians are comparatively few in number, they have created what many observers consider a model multicultural society, welcoming immigrant populations from every other continent.

In addition, Canada is home to and exports a wealth of natural resources and intellectual capital matched by few other countries. It also has the longest coastline in the world, at over 149, 130 miles.
