Canada has been a gentle and quieter in comparison to its vibrant and vivacious neighbor, the USA. While hockey would always have a special place in the heart of every Canadian. There are many Canada facts and Canada travel information<\/a> which many people are not aware of.<\/p>\n We have compiled a series of things you did not know about Canada which will help you expand your limited knowledge about Canada and enhance your Canada travel experience. Some of these unique facts about Canada<\/a> will take you by surprise, especially when you consider the ease and benefits of obtaining a Canada visa<\/a> to explore this beautiful country.<\/p>\n Canada is the second biggest country in the world after Russia, so the vastness of this great country is a well-known fact, but comparisons in size have never been done frequently. No specific reason why. If we combine the entire European Union, it still will not match up to the size of Canada. If we compare it with individual nations, then it is 15 times bigger than France, 33 times bigger than Italy, 30% bigger than Australia, three times as big as India, five times as big as Mexico, and probably 81,975 Walt Disney Worlds put together. That is enormous!<\/p>\n You won\u2019t believe this one, but it is actually true. The climate in Canada during the winters is extreme and can be too harsh for a first timer as well as for an experienced traveler. In general, the temperatures go down to -14.4\u00b0C. So be prepared if you are planning for Canada holidays during the winter. Stuff your bags with as many warm clothes as you can. The lowest temperature recorded was -63\u00b0C in a tiny village of Snag in the year 1947. This is the average surface temperature on the planet Mars.<\/p>\n Canada has a lush green cover, in fact, it covers 30% of the boreal forests of the world and 10% of the total forest of the world with 68% of the forests being coniferous. An incredible dedicated 396.9 million hectares of forest land and other wooden lands can be found here. One of the most surprising facts about these forests is that they are publicly owned. You have to cover 30% of Canada to browse through these spectacular forest land.<\/p>\n1. Canada is much bigger than the combined European Union<\/strong><\/h2>\n
