Canada (— the state in the North America, takes the second place in the world on the area and on hockey (after Russia). It is washed Atlantic, Silent and Arctic by oceans and borders on the USA in the south and in the northwest.

Today Canada is a constitutional monarchy with the parliamentary system, being the bilingual and multicultural country where English and French languages are recognised by official at federal level. Technologically advanced and industrially developed state, Canada has the diversified economy which is based on rich natural resources and trade (in particular, from the USA with which Canada in a complex co-operates since existence of colonies and the Confederation basis).

Based by the French researcher Jacque Cartier in 1534, Canada originates from the French colony on the place of the modern city of Quebec occupied by originally local people. After the period of English colonisation from the union of three British colonies (which were before territories of New France) the Canadian confederation was born. Today Canada is the federative state consisting of 10 provinces and 3 territories, received independence of the United Kingdom as a result of peace process with 1867 on 1982.

Canada consists now of one province with the prevailing French-speaking population — Quebec — and mainly English-speaking 9 provinces also named «English Canada» in comparison with French-speaking Quebec. Being one of nine mainly English-speaking provinces, New Brunswick is unique officially bilingual Canadian province. Territory Yukon officially двуязычна (English and French), and North-West territories and territory of Nunavut recognise 11 official languages (among which also there is an English and French).

Canada
Canada is the second largest country in the world. Only Russia has a greater land area. Canada is situated in North America. Canada is slightly larger than the United States, but has only about a tenth as many people. About 28 million
people live in Canada. About 80% of the population live within 320 km of the southern border. Much of the rest of Canada is uninhabited or thinly populated because of severe natural conditions. Canada is a federation of 10 provinces and 2 territories. Canada is an independent nation. But according to the Constitution Act of 1982 British Monarch, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom is recognized as Queen of Canada. This symbolizes the country's strong ties to Britain. Canada was ruled by Britain completely until 1867, when Canada gained control of its domestic affairs. Britain governed
Canada's foreign affairs until 1931, when Canada gained full independence.
Canada's people are varied. About 57% of all Canadians have some English ancestry and about 32% have some French ancestry. Both English and French are official languages of
the country.
French Canadians, most of whom live in the provinces of Quebec, have kept the language and customs of their ancestors. Other large ethnic groups are German, Irish and Scottish people. Native people — American Indians and Eskimos — make up about 2% of the country's population. 77% of Canada's people live in cities or towns. Toronto and Montreal are the largest urban areas. Ottawa is the capital of the country.
Today, maintaining a sense of community is one of the major problems in Canada because of differences among the provinces and territories. Many Canadians in western and eastern parts of the country feel that the federal government does not pay enough attention to their problems. 80% of Quebec's population are French Canadians. Many of them believe that their province should recieve a special recognition in the Canadian constitution.

Канада
Канада — это вторая по величине страна в мире. Только Россия имеет большую площадь. Канада находится в Северной Америке. Канада немного больше Соединенных Штатов, однако в ней живет в десять раз меньше людей. В Канаде — около 28 миллионов жителей. Около 80% населения живет в пределах 320 км от южной границы. Боль-
шая часть остальной территории Канады не заселена или
мало заселена из-за суровых природных условий. Канада является федерацией 10 провинций и 2 территорий. Канада — это независимое государство. Но согласно Конституционному акту 1982 года английская королева Елизавета II признана главой государства Канады. Это
символизирует прочные связи страны с Британией. Британия правила Канадой вплоть до 1867 года, когда Канада получила контроль над своими внутренними делами. Британия управляла иностранными делами Канады до 1931 года, когда Канада получила полную независимость.
Население Канады разнообразно. Около 57% канадцев имеют английское происхождение и около 32% жителей - -канадцы французского происхождения. Как английский, так и французский являются государственными языками страны.
Французские канадцы, большинство из которых живет
в провинции Квебек, сохранили язык и обычаи своих предков. Другими большими этническими группами являются немцы, ирландцы и шотландцы. Коренные народы, американские индейцы и эскимосы, составляют около 2% населения страны. 77% населения Канады живет в больших и малых городах. Торонто и Монреаль — самые большие
города. Оттава — столица страны. Сегодня сохранение чувства общности является главной проблемой в Канаде из-за различий среди провинций
и территорий. Многие канадцы в западных и восточны* областях страны считают, что федеральное правительство не уделяет достаточно внимания их проблемам. 80% населения Квебека — французские канадцы. Многие из них считают, что провинция должна получить специальное признание в канадской Конституции

Canada

Canada is the second largest country in the world. It covers the northern part of North America and its total area is 9,975,000 square kilometres. Canada's only neighbour is the USA. The border between the two countries is the longest unguarded border in the world.

Canada's motto, "From Sea to Sea," is particularly appropriate because the country is bounded by three oceans — the Pacific, the Arctic and the Atlantic. Its vast area includes some of the world's largest lakes and countless smaller ones. One-third of all fresh water on Earth is in Canada.

Canada's name comes from an Indian word kanata, which means "village". The first French settlers used the Indian name for the colony, but the official name was "New France". When the area came under the British rule in 1897, the new country was called the Dominion of Canada, or simply Canada. Canada is a union of ten provinces and two territories.

Compared with other large countries, Canada has a small population, only about 27,300,000. The country, however, is one of the world's most prosperous. Canadians I developed its rich natural resources and, in the process, have achieved a high standard of living.

Canada is a constitutional monarchy. It is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations and Queen Elizabeth II is its official head of state. Although the Queen holds this high position, she doesn't rule. She serves as a symbol of British tradition. Her representative in Canada is the Governor General, whom she appoints on the advice of the Canadian Prime Minister. The Governor's duties are limited to symbolic, mostly ceremonial acts.

The real power belongs to the Prime Minister and his Cabinet. The Canadian Parliament consists of two chambers: the House of Commons and the Senate.

There are two official languages in the country: English and French. All Canadian children have to learn both French and English at school, but Francophones and Anglophones do not enjoy learning each other's language.

"We have two races, two languages, two systems of religious belief, two sets of laws ...two systems of everything," said one Canadian journalist.

There was a time when Quebec Province (its population is 90% French) decided to separate from Canada and form a new country. Fortunately, the movement has waned.

The capital of Canada is Ottawa.
