  37. Background In size, Canada is the second largest country on earth. In terms of economic power, it is a member of the Big seven, the world’s leading industrial nations, ranking along with the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany and Japan. Canada plays an active role in international affairs, often taking part in peacekeeping and humanitarian missions and spearheading aid and development programs.

Most Canadians live in the south of the country, along the 49th parallel: about 90 per cent of the population is estimated to live within a few hundred kilometers of the Canadian-Americans border, in an climate that is much less extreme.
