What is the name of all Canadian cityes?
There are WAYY too many cities in Canada to name them all. I live here and I live in Kingston Ontario, it is a pretty big city. Ontario is my province(states in USA), There is also Toronto, Ottawa and like hundreds more of cities in Ontario. That is only ONE prvince, so as you can see now, there are alot of cities in Canada.Answer:In Canada city status is handled by the individual provinces and territories. City status definitions and criteria vary widely. In British Columbia and Saskatchewan, towns can become cities after they reach a population of 5,000 people, but this criteria is 10,000 in Alberta and Ontario.In Ontario city status is also given to merged municipalities or areas. Nova Scotia has abolished the title of city altogether, opting for regional municipalities insteal.In Quebec both cities and towns are legally "villes". Quebec once differentiated between ville (town) and cité (city), but no longer does so.The largest municipalities in Canada are:Rank Name Province Population1 Toronto Ontario 4,263,0002 Montréal Quebec 3.327.0003 Vancouver British Columbia 1,832,0004 Ottawa Ontario 1,010,0005 Edmonton Alberta 863.0006 Calgary Alberta 822,0007 Quebéc Quebec 672,0008 Winnipeg Manitoba 667,0009 Hamilton Ontario 624,00010 London Ontario 399,00011 Kitchener Ontario 383,00012 St Catharines-Niagara Ontario 372,00013 Halifax Nova Scotia 333,00014 Victoria British Columbia 304,00015 Windsor Ontario 279,00016 Oshawa Ontario 269,00017 Saskatoon Saskatchewan 219,00018 Regina Saskatchewan 194,00019 St John's Newfoundland 174,00020 Sudbury Ontario 160,00021 Chicoutimi Quebec 160,00022 Sherbrooke Quebec 147,00023 Kingston Ontario 143,00024 Trois-Rivières Quebec 140,00025 Kelowna British Columbia 137,00026 Abbotsford British Columbia 136,00027 Saint John New Brunswick 126,00028 Thunder Bay Ontario 126,00029 Barrie Ontario 119,00030 Sydney Nova Scotia 118,000
What is Canada's longest street?
Believe it or not, the Government of Canada has a web page devoted to places with the longest names in Canada. You can find the link below. In order: Dysart, Dudley, Harcourt, Guilford, Harburn, Bruton, Havelock, Eyre and Clyde is a township in Ontario and yes that is the name. But Stanley Bridge, Hope River, Bayview, Cavendish and North Rustico in PEI is the longest name for a village. There is no city named on their list, but at a guess I think Cours d'eau du Cordon des Terres des Sixième et Septième Rangs in Quebec should be the longest name.
