Ontario is a large province which includes enormous expanses of lakes and waterways. The north part of the province borders Hudson Bay with many rivers and forest areas where you can encounter whales, polar bears and caribou. The southern border lies on a large expanse of the north shore of Lake Superior, the world’s largest freshwater lake, as well as Lake Ontario and Lakes Erie and Huron, where there are some lovely beaches to be found. The capital city is Toronto. Ontario is roughly divided into nine regions.
