• Canada is a monarchy. Yep, Canada has a Queen. It’s the same as the UK’s – Queen Elizabeth II. That’s because Canada is a member of the British Commonwealth, having formerly been a colony of the British Empire. Though it became self-governing in 1867, there was a way to go before Canada actually became independent.
• There are two official languages in Canada. Britain wasn’t the only power-hungry colonial power at the time of Canada’s pioneering days. There was also France, who once owned much of North America for a while. That didn’t last, but what did last was the culture and the language of France. Today, English and French are the most widely spoken languages in Canada.
• Canada is the world’s second largest country. This is one of those super important Canada facts to know! You may have been thinking of China, or maybe the USA, but no – it’s Canada. How big are we talking? 9.98 million square miles. Of course, just in case you were wondering, Russia is the biggest.
• Canada has the longest coastline in the world. There are so many reasons to visit Canada, and this is one of them! Have you seen a map of Canada? All those islands and jagged, irregular lines that mark where the land ends? There’s a lot of that kind of thing going on. It all adds up to the longest coastline in the world at over 125,500 miles. This one is another one of my favorite Canada facts!
• Canada also has the longest international border. This giant country’s only land neighbor is the United States, and since they’re both pretty big, you can expect that border to be big, too. It’s the longest border between two countries (well, the southern border) at a very long 5,525 miles.
• The word Canada is derived from an indigenous word. And that word is kanata, which means “settlement” or “village” in the language of the St. Lawrence Iroquoians. Sadly, these indigenous people disappeared in the 16th century, during wars with the Mohawk who wanted a monopoly on trade with Europeans at the time.
• Canada’s national animal is actually a beaver. It played a pretty crucial role in the history of Canada, what with all the fur trappers, traders, and battles over who would be the fur king of the region. Then there are the poor beavers themselves, almost hunted to extinction! Well, at least they became the national animal of Canada in 1975. They’re on the Canadian nickel, too.
• There are a lot of famous Canadians Living in the US. Seth Rogan, Mike Myers, Justin Bieber, Michael Buble, Alanis Morisette, Keanu Reeves, Jim Carey, Celine Dion, Neil Young, Drake… The list could go on. Basically, there are a lot of people from Canada who influence popular culture as we know it!
• The coldest ever recorded temperature in Canada is -63°C.
• Loonies and Toonies One of the most fun facts about Canada is this one! First off, there’s the “loonie,” which is a $1CAD coin. We get this one, because on one side of the coin there’s a depiction of a loon – that’s a duck-type thing (a waterfowl, if you want to be picky). Then there’s the “toonie,” which we get less. It’s a two-dollar coin, so we guess it’s “toonie” like “two-nie.” A pun of the highest degree.
