Ontario is one of the largest provinces of Canada, equivalent in size to all of Europe. It naturally divides into two parts – the more southerly third and the much larger north. Its shape is determined by the Great Lakes, which form a natural boundary with the USA, but results in the most southerly portion of the province being on the same longitude as northern California.
In fact, Detroit is actually north of Windsor, Ont. By North American standards, Ontario is loaded with history, having been settled by United Empire Loyalists fleeing the rebellion in the southern American colonies. Toronto, then called York, was raided and burned by American soldiers during the War of 1812, an act that led to the British sacking of Washington and the burning of the Presidential mansion.
Yonge Street, built by my ancestors, is the longest street in the world, stretching north from Toronto’s waterfront to Georgian Bay and then becoming the main highway through northern Ontario to join the province to Manitoba. This is also the capital of Canada, in Ottawa, and of Ontario, in Toronto.
The province is also home to several great universities. In the north, three grand attractions are the giant Nickel in Sudbury, the giant Wawa Goose, and the grandest fur trading post in all of the Americas, Fort William (near Thunder Bay).

Scale 1:550,000. International Travel Maps edition. The Canadian province of Ontario is intimidatingly large. It is also mostly tundra with extremely few settlements and few roads; in fact, the geographic center of Ontario is about 1,500 kms north of the nearest road. The very first map I prepared, at age 10, was of Ontario; and it took me six weeks to trace all the lakes. My point is that the developed portion of the province is a much smaller wedge of fertile ground south of the mineral belt of the Great Canadian Shield. This double sided map focuses on the area south of Sudbury and North Bay and expands the scale to a much more useful purpose for most users. Imagine Detroit in the southwest corner of the map, with Highway 401 joining it to London and Toronto and a branch motorway cutting across to Buffalo. Add in the Bruce Peninsula and the major routes north to cottage country and you have side one. The other side stretches from Toronto east to the Quebec border and Ottawa, with the lovely Kawarthas region for exploring. My personal favourite highway is number 7, from Peterborough east through land settled two hundred years ago by Scottish Gaels. Perth is a perfectly preserved Scottish town of granite buildings. The map also includes a regional map of the main roads in the greater Toronto area and a separate inset of the downtown. - $14.95
