How has the earths plates shaped Canada in many ways?

There are many tectonic plates. Canada is on the North American plate. This plate meets the Pacific plate and the much smaller Juan de Fuca plate on the west side. The Juan de Fuca plate is moving toward the North American Plate and being subducted beneath it. This has created the volcanoes near the west coast of Canada, part of the Ring of Fire. About 225 million years ago, all the continents were together as one supercontinent, Pangaea. As the tectonic plates moved apart, it separated into two supercontinents, Laurasia and Gondwanaland. As the plates continued to move, we eventually came to the arrangement of continents that we currently have. Canada, as part of the North American plate, moved with it to its current position. The plates are continuing to move and eventually another supercontinent will form
