Bruce Hutchison, a prominent newspaper editor and author, once described Canada as "The Unknown Country". To a large extent, Canada, with its complex weave of languages, cultures and regions, is very often compared to a geopolitical conundrum. Canada is the second largest country by area in the world and the largest one in North America. It only has land borders with the United States, a very long one at Canada's Southern edge and a shorter one with Alaska in the Northwest - it is the longest unguarded border in the world. Once you come to this country do not be afraid of its great magnitude - just remember that making plans for weekend in the other city must involve taking into account the huge distances. Canada consists of 10 provinces (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador) and 3 territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut). There is a great number of cities in Canada and the most important cultural and industrial centers of Canada like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa (the capital) are recognized among the best cities of the world in terms of living and working conditions, cleanliness and safety, cultural activities and attractive lifestyles, and many other factors. All of these cities have numerous educational and career opportunities for you to offer. The authorities of the United Nations Organization in their survey, for nine years from 1994 to 2002, stated that Canada is among the best three places in the world to live in. Canada got these particularly high marks because of its access to education, high life expectancy (due to universal health care system) and low crime and violence rates.
