Good job!
I want you to cover the texts about Canada. Each group has own texts.
First group part I, second group part II, third group part III. You must read these texts and find out main
information and prepare posters about your text. I will give you about 5 – 10
min.
Group I. Canada Part I
Canada has an area of
nearly ten million square kilometres. Its western coast is washed by the
Pacific Ocean and its eastern coast by the Atlantic Ocean. There are many
islands in the North of Canada.
Canada has mountains, high
plains and low plains. The Rocky Mountains run parallel to the Pacific coast.
East of these mountains are the high plains. The low plains lie in the region
of the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River. There are also mountains which
run parallel to Canada`s east coast, in Labrador and Baffin Island.
Canada is a country of
lakes. Besides the Great Lakes – Lakes Superior, Huron, Erie and Ontario ( the
fifth Great Lake, Michigan, lies in the USA), there are many other very large
lakes, for example, Great Bear Lake, Great Slave Lake and Lake Winnipeg.
Canada also has large
rivers: the Mackenzie flows from the Rocky Mountains into the Arctic Ocean, the
Yukon rises in Canada and flows into the Pacific, the St. Lawrence River flows
into the Atlantic Ocean.
The Niagara Falls are one
of the most splendid sights in the world.
Since the building of the
St. Lawrence Seaway the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River from a great
waterway from the Atlantic to the heart of the country.
Canada has several
climatic regions. Winter in Canada lasts from four to five months with heavy
snowfalls. There is much rain in the east and west, but less in the centre.
The north of the country
near the Arctic is tundra with great forests to the south. The central plains
form the prairies.

Group II. Canada Part II
The population of Canada
is over 24 million people. In the country there are 330,000 Indians and 25,000
Eskimos, who live mostly in the North. Today more than 40 per cent of the
people of Canada came originally from Britain, about 30 per cent from France
and 20 per cent from other countries.
The capital of Canada is
Ottawa. Other large important towns are Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton,
Hamilton, Winnipeg and Quebec.
Canada is rich in metal
ores, oil and gas, and the metal, machine-building, motor-car and ship-building
industries are highly developed.
The hydro-electric
industry is highly developed, its main centres are in the provinces of Quebec
and Ontario. There is a very large hydro- electric station at the Niagara
Falls.
Canada`s main agricultural
products are wheat, meat, some kinds of fruit, especially apples and dairy
products.
The provinces of Quebec,
Ontario and British Columbia, with their great forests, produce wood for paper-
making and building.
Many ofthe lakes and
rivers are polluted today and few of them have fish now. But Canada`s fishing
industry is still important on both the Pacific and Atlantic coasts. Canada`s largest
ports are Vancouver, Montreal and Halifax.

Group III. Canada Part III
Canada is a federal state
and a member of the Commonwealth. Formally the head of the state is the King
or Queen of England represented by the Governor- General who is named by the
Canadian cabinet. The leading figure in the political life of the country is
the Prime Minister.
Canada consists of the
provinces of Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick,
Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and Yukon
and the North- West Territories.
The Federal Parliament
consists of Senate, whose members are appointed by the Governor- General, and
the House of Commons whose members are elected by the people for a period of
five years.
The cabinet is headed by
the Prime Minister, usually the leader of the party which has the majority in
the House of Commons. The ministers are members of the House of Commons, but
the Prime Minister may name one minister from the Senate.
In all the provinces there
is a legislative assembly elected by the people for five years.
The seat of the Federal
Parliament and government is Ottawa, the federal capital. The legislative
assemblies and governments of the provinces have their seat in the provincial
capitals.
There are several
political parties which are represented in Parliament: the Progressive
Conservative Party, the Liberal Party and New Democratic Party. They differ
mostly in policy, their attitude to the USA, to the question of the French and
English elements of the population and to provincial policies.
