After two days’ travel, the girls began to realize that Canada is quite empty. At school, they had learned that mostly Canadians live within a few hundred kilometer of the USA border, and Canada population is only slightly over thirty million, and now they were amazed to see such an empty country. They went through a wheat — growing province and saw farms that were covered thousands of acres. After dinner, they were back in an urban area, the busy port city of Thunder Bay at a top of the Great Lakes. The girls were surprising at the fact that ocean ships can sail up the Great Lakes. Because the Great Lakes, they learned, Canada has much fresh water than any other country in the world. In fact, it has one—third of the world’s total fresh water, and much of it are in the Great Lakes.
