The geographical location of Ontario

Ontario is bordered by Hudson Bay in the north, Quebec in the east, Manetho in the west and Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York in the south. The border between Ontario and the United States is basically a river or lake, from the forest lake in the west to the St. Lawrence River in Cornwall in the east. These include Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario (hence the name "Lake Ontario" means beautiful lake in Iroquois). There are about 25,000 lakes and100,000 kilometers of rivers in Ontario.

Toronto, the largest city and provincial capital, is a major member of the so-called "Golden Horseshoe" urban belt on the west coast of Lake Ontario. Ottawa is the capital of Canada, located on the Ottawa River in the easternmost part of the province. The Ottawa River is also the main boundary river between Ontario and Quebec.

Northern Ontario is basically the rugged mountain range of canadian shield. The highest point in the province is on the Ish Patyna Ridge.

The whole province can be divided into three geographical regions: canadian shield in the west and the middle, with barren land, rich minerals and numerous rivers and lakes; The northeast is the Hudson Bay lowland, mostly forests and swamps; The Great Lakes in the southeast have the largest population and a warm climate. The industrial zone is mainly here, and the Atlantic Ocean can be directly connected through the St. Lawrence seaway.

Many immigrants from all over the world, especially to Toronto, are rapidly diversifying the cultural composition of this province. About 5% of the population in Ontario speaks French.
