what's it like in the three Canadian territories? I literally know nothing about its geography other than some pictures. feels like a hidden gem
First, most of it is rightful Danish landSecond, the rest is gay and stoopid bad bad poo pooThird. getting a Canadian pilot license for small aircraft is easier then mot of Europ or america, allegedly
>>2780963Mostly uninhabitable wasteland.
My guess is freezing bog ridden msoqutio tundra for the most part, unless proven otherwise.
It sucks. Great Bear Lake and Great Slave Lake are some of the largest lakes on Earth, and yet they only have like a thousand visitors a year.
>>2780963nothing, no trees, polar bears, expensive food, i guess fish is good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDFLtdCtwhc
>>2781037Not watching that trash omfg, 20 minutes of some idiot scammers face idk how you "people" can do such thing
>>278096320 bucks for a single bell pepper.
>>2780976Yeah and we're also full, stay in Toronto and Calgary

>>2780963The land is beautiful and some of the most remote /out/ing on the planet. Only Siberia, Greenland, and Antarctica can really compare.That being said, it's nearly inhospitable for 99.999% of people. There's a reason no major settlements ever really took off, I'm surprised Yellowknife does as well as it does. They also have the highest crime rate in all of Canada. Really goes to show just how hardcore the Inuit are. It's just life for them, and it has been for thousands of years.
>>2780963I dont know, but I love staring at maps of Northern Canada and daydreaming about being an explorer in the days of old like Amundsen and such on a weekly basis.
>>2781290didn't know Yellowknife existed.interesting read, thanks.what makes the northern territories so much more inhospitable than say Alaska, Siberia or even Finland ?is it just the overall lack of infrastructure?
>>2781290The Inuit are not hardcore, they didn't traditionally live that far north in the past and only currently manage it because the government pays them to live there and drink themselves to death.
>>2781304The Canadian Shield is a big part of it. Glaciers receding and growing over and over scrubbed away what little soil there was to support vegetation growth, and any soil that does remain is mostly infertile and can't support much life beyond short, simple grasses. No soil means no crops means no agriculture means no civilization. Inuit have a diet that is almost entirely animal-based as a result.They can't even really build permanent roads and buildings there because of poor soil and/or permafrost. Or well, they can, but it's super expensive and hard to maintain. They have temporary winter roads that get put up over ice fields to move resources out to any communities in the far north, whereas Alaska has a much larger amount of usable coastline compared to the northern Canadian interior. Even in Alaska though, communities are very sparse north of Fairbanks. Oil is the biggest reason anybody bothers with industry in the far north at all. Siberia by comparison has more useable land in the southern portions of its territory, Krasnoyarsk for example reaches into the 80's in the summer and has a climate similar to northern parts of the continental US.I don't know much about Finland, honestly. But the fact that they have much more trees and shrubs tells me that their soil is a lot more suitable to agriculture.

>>2781136>t. drunken sister fucking eskimo
>>2781340damn, very insightful.I learned something today.the northern territories sounds pretty fucked lol.still sounds like a very interesting place.
>>2781032That would be Northern Ontario. The Yukon and NWT are full of mountains and crystal clear rivers. Some of it is a wasteland but some of it is Boreal forest. It's a huge chunk of land with huge variance. Jim Baird has a couple video series' canoeing around the rivers. Xander Budnick also has a recent one.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GglkYN2l018
>>2780963Agriculture is only possible in the Yukon and NWT and even then it's barely something you could call agriculture. The majority of the areas highlighted are worse than 80% of Siberia, and fun fact, several of those provinces are even *less* populous by density and by total people than *any* oblast in Siberia Russia. The only place on Earth with a lower density is Antarctica. It is that way for a reason, no agriculture potential means no people or development. Most of that area was miles under ice less than 20kya, an ice cap larger than modern Antarctica centered over Hudson Bay.
>>2781339None of this is true, of course.
>>2781340Go soil yourself. The bread basket of the Prairies got glaciered to hell and seem to do fine. Maybe Finland being at the ass end of the gulf stream has something to do with their bush.
Pretty cold up there
>>2780963>>2780963idk but I went to the very northern part of one of tte provinces (Sask, MB or ON, keeping it anon) and it is like somehow even worse than a 3rd world country. The feeling of despair is hard to describe, like as if the earth was bleeding. the stereotype is that all the injuns live in poverty while the white people lord it over them, but what I saw was everyone living like shit. The towns were literally falling apart.Went to a first nation reservation with my dad and honestly the people lived pretty good there, but there was tension thick as soup in the air. I'm a ytoid but my dad passes for mixed (I just appear white) and he was majorly triggered because he's not comfortable at all being part "one of them" and started loudly saying racist shitI hear similar stuff about the north. It's just like bleak and hopeless
>>2783087also all the white women were absolute hogs and some of the most beautiful women I have ever seen in my entire life where the tall, thin, ghostly looking first nation women. FN women seem hardly any more free than afghan women in burkas. You just kinda got a sense they were property there. But I mean, jaw-droppingly hot women.
>>2781959The prairies are likely so fertile because they were the dumping grounds for hundreds of feet of glacier meltwater sediment that ripped across all of North America but especially from the glacier margins in the middle of the country without any blocking mountains (like the western glaciers which ripped open mile deep canyons up to 13 miles wide in the north and south west). Places like Iowa have up to 400 feet deep glacier flood sediments that also got a top dusting of fertile loess as the waters receded and flow forces lessened (allowing lighter more fertile material to be deposited on top).
>>2783091And the sad part is due to generations of mismanagement and farmers with "that's just how my daddy did it", the soil in Iowa is slowly but surely being rinsed downriver into the Gulf. It's not too late, but the damage is done.
>>2783088This is news to me. Have any pics?
>>2783087>>2783088can confirm, i lived in desmarais on wabasca lake as a kid and it was bleak as hell culturally. beautiful nature though (i dont remember the women much because my balls hadnt dropped yet)
>>2783457i was shocked to find out recently that most grain farmers in southern alberta have been practicing no-till for the last decade or so after realizing the old ways really arent working. well DUH
>>2780965>First, most of it is rightful Danish landThis isn't even remotely true
>>2785406lol theyre making a viking joke
>>2780963The Northern part of any Canadian province is literally warmer and has better living conditions. Moving to the northern territories when places like Prince George exist is silly.

>>2780963Fucking empty. I had company the guy who was doing geology work to Bassin Island via Ugave bay.One of the most empty places I've ever been on earth. And I did a winter in spring in Tuktoyuktuk
>>2781348Sorry I don't fuck men like you do down in Ontario and BC
