Alberta also offers many beautiful lakes that can be visited just to enjoy the scenery they provide. Onto the cultural features. I previously mentioned that Alberta has a farming community. The farms that run in Alberta are canola, wheat, dry peas, cattle etc. Alberta is known for farming because the province has an abundance of sunshine and excellent soil that make it a prime place to grow crops. That means produce in Alberta is usually fresh and better. The business industry in Alberta is big due to their oil and gas sector, those are their biggest businesses. Alberta is made for those who really enjoy the outdoors and exploring what is around them.

Finally, is Prince Edward Island. Prince Edward Island is located in the EAST part of Canada. PEI is known for their physical features like relatively flat land, their red soil, big cliffs, etc. Flat lands can be found in PEI and are beneficial. They are beneficial for farming because it is more suitable for the crops and they are deep with fertile soil that essentially helps with farming crops. On top of that PEI has red soil that develops in warm or moist climates. This is helpful because PEI tends to be warmer because of the warm waters found in the Gulf of St Lawrence. The big cliffs found in PEI can be explored as they are massive and you could even hike to the top of them for an aerial view of your surroundings that ends up to be a beautiful view. Some cultural features of PEI are the golfing community, fishing, music, etc. PEI is most famous for their golfing. PEI is considered the best place to golf in Canada. There is also a big fishing community in PEI because of the amount of water that surrounds the province. That makes it easier for fishers to fish in open bodies of water and catch goods to bring home. “Fishing here is heaven” said Joshua Jones, a local fisherman. This means the province is more of a seafood province since fishing is so popular. Music tends to be known in PEI because the music is usually tightly knitted. There is also a big Acadian culture there along with Scottish, and Irish. They are passionate about their own culture and music. 

To conclude, Ontario, Alberta, and PEI are only 3 of the 13 provinces and territories in Canada. These 3 provinces each have their own unique physical and cultural features to be explored!
