When asking this question, you have to be more specific. Canada has 15 ecozones, each with their own unique properties, and yes, you guessed it, their own unique soil properties. The types of soils in the different ecozones depend greatly on the climate, vegatation, and precipitaion. The climate affects the soils because the climate factors the vegetation. In coniferous forests, the soils then tend to be thin, wheras in deciduous forests the soils are thick. Precipitation is a factor because of leaching. If you have a lot of precipitation and are in a coniferous forest, you will have almost white top layer of soils with the soild becoming darker in the B and C horizons. Thick and thin leaf litter and humus layers affect leaching because they dictate the amount of water that is available to flow through the soils. When you ask that question, it is much easier to focus on the soil of one specific ecozone than to try and lump all of the ecozones into one large category.

No, not always. Moss is acidic - yes, but having moss grow is not usually a sign of acidic soil. To grow moss in your lawn, all that is required is insufficient sunlight, low soil fertility, compacted soil, dampness, low pH. If moss is growing, it is more likely a problem with soil compaction.
How is Mars like earth's moon?
Similar: Both earth's moon and Mars are (as best as we can tell) biologically dead places. Both have considerable evidence of volcanic activity in their past. Both have some water locked into the rocks and soil in their polar regions Different: The Moon has no atmosphere. Mars has a very thin CO2 atmosphere. There is no obvious sign of oxides of iron in the moon's soil. There is considerable evidence of oxides of iron in the soil of Mars.
Deforstation erosion and pollution?
Deforestation leads to soil erosion as tree roots that hold the soil in place are removed. This can result in sedimentation in water bodies, leading to pollution. Pollution from deforestation can also come from the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change.

Test your soil in the fall. Then you will know what you need to add to the soil. The soil report should tell you exactly what you need. You can do an estimate based on which weeds grow in your garden.
