Correction: #11 - Canada has TWO land borders! One with the US and a very small one with Greenland/Denmark on 'Hans Island' in the Nares Strait.

Canada’s Easternmost point is closer to St Petersburg in Russia than it’s Westernmost point, just shows how insanely huge the country is.

The western most point is also most likely closer to Russia than the eastern most point too (not 100% sure but I imagine it is)

The Bay of Fundy between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia has the highest tidal differences in the world of about 14 metres. It means the water level falls and rises over 2 metres an hour. Crazy.

@@wannaplaythisdavid tell you what there’s no fear of me just touring Toronto. I’ve always been for travelling the road less traveled and I’ve never been into living in cities which is why I’ve at 61 have only lived in 3 cities with the biggest being Sydney here in Australia for 8 years before I headed back out into the country. Seen a lot of videos on Canada and I know there’s a lot I’d truly enjoy and love. One thing that I reckon would be must is seeing an ice hockey game those fellas are nuts even by Aussie standards. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Not just the longest border but the longest undefended border in the world. There are Customs crossing/checkpoints but it isn't a place where you have military presence in some unstable situation. Also, in that last area you mentioned, you can drive from Detroit SOUTH into Canada.

Great video, really interesting facts! Along with Greenland, Canada shares an (ocean) border with France.

Lytton has long set records for the hottest place in Canada; this goes back to my earliest memories in the 1960s. What I cannot tell you is whether these record-setting temperatures have gradually become higher over the decades: my impressions is that they have. I imagine Environment Canada would have the statistics.

I don't believe the Island thing is true. Rocks that are called island in Norway and Sweden and counted are simply not counted in Canada. Labrador, much of the north and large parts of Newfoundland have the same type of rugged coastline that gives the Nordic countries so many islands. Unless someone does a full physical survey I will not accept that the Nordic countries have more islands. Also Canada now has a short land border with Denmark on a small northern Island.

Geography Bible, you put the em-PHA-sis on the wrong syl-LA-ble regarding Lake Huron, which is HUGH-ron, rather than hugh-RON. You stated that Mt. Logan is 5250m tall, but the inset figures say it's 5959m. #9 is also wrong, since the north coast of AK also faces the Arctic Ocean. Technicality here: Nunavut is a territory, rather than a province, with its 2 others being Yukon and NW Terr. Re. point #25 , it's actually farther south than all or part of 27 of the US' 50 states.
