| description | The aim of this paper is to show to what extent natural conditions and
environment are a factor in the distribution of population in Canada and
their division into north and south. How it historically affected the
different cultural and economic development of Canada, the deep regionalism
between the North and the South. How much that modern climate change has an
affect on “opening” the region of North Canada (the territories of Nunavut,
Yukon and Northwest territories). By analyzing climate tables and maps and
comparing them, we conclude about the magnitude of climate changes that have
occurred in that region in the last few years and decades and their
positive and negative effects on the local population. The results showed
that this historical "barrier" of the region is slowly "melting" with the
ice. This paper is significant for two reasons, the first is to explain the
historical division of the country through natural conditions as the main
factors of division (into the southern more populated part and the northern
sparsely populated part of Canada) and second to show how climate change
really changes the everyday life of the local population in a positive
(economic growth and employment) and negative (environmental change due to
climate change and environmental pollution due to the arrival of industry in
those "remote" areas) aspect. |
