During the last ice age, the great weight of the glaciers covering what is now The Great Lakes area actually lowered the land. It has been slowly rising up again since all the glaciers melted.
The melting of the glaciers provided tremendous amounts of water that scoured out pathways to the Pacific. They also filled the Great Lakes and overflowed to make rivers to the Atlantic.
The water flow created a river to The Great Salt Lake but not enough water enters it now to let it overflow to the sea. So the water just evaporates and keeps getting saltier.
Voters who live on the US coasts and around the Great Lakes tend to be more liberal and Democratic-leaning compared to voters in other regions of the country. These areas often have more urban and diverse populations, which contribute to their political leanings. Additionally, the presence of major cities and universities in these regions can attract voters with progressive views.
The primary religions in the St. Lawrence Great Lakes area are Christianity (including various denominations such as Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodox Christianity), as well as Indigenous spiritual beliefs practiced by First Nations peoples in the region. There is also a growing presence of other faiths such as Islam, Judaism, and Hinduism due to immigration and diversity in the area.
The population of the St. Lawrence Great Lakes Lowlands region is approximately 9.4 million people. This region includes major cities such as Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa, as well as smaller communities along the St. Lawrence River and Great Lakes. It is one of the most densely populated areas in Canada.
The Great Lakes contain about 84% of the freshwater in North America and approximately 21% of the world's surface freshwater. Therefore, the Great Lakes hold a significant portion of the Earth's freshwater lakes water.
