The Big Questions for Canada

Canada:

The government is very sustainable, modelled after the British form of government. It is a parliamentary democracy, complete with a legislative, executive, and judicial branch. There is a monarchy and Prime Minister and several political parties.

Environmental Issues:
air pollution and resulting acid rain severely affecting lakes and damaging forests; metal smelting, coal-burning utilities, and vehicle emissions impacting on agricultural and forest productivity; ocean waters becoming contaminated due to agricultural, industrial, mining, and forestry activities

Canada, as a developed country, is also one of the richest countries in the world. It has a high literacy rate, and minimum schooling age of 17 years. The increased focus on education leads to a stable economy and well educated population. The abundance of water and natural resources allows for the small, but positive growth rate in this country to be sustained.
