7. Too Far North is Too Cold
Canada’s population distribution is about 70% of Canadians live south of Seattle, a city known for its northern position in the United States. Additionally, 90% of the Canadian population resides within 100 miles of the U.S. border. This pattern highlights the stark contrast in habitability across Canada’s vast territory.
While Canada extends all the way to the North Pole, claiming a vast expanse of the Arctic, the majority of its landmass is characterized by extremely harsh weather conditions, making it less suitable for large-scale human settlement. Consequently, the southern regions of Canada, being the warmest and most hospitable, serve as the primary living areas for Canadians.
