Rockies and badlands
Alberta
Turquoise Moraine Lake and the peaks of Banff, Canada’s first national park, founded in 1885. Out east, Dinosaur Provincial Park holds one of the richest fossil beds on Earth.

Travel ideas for all ten provinces and three territories: the most visited, the great outdoors and the hidden gems in between. Every one you've already been to drops out, so you only see places that are new to you. Found one you like? Add it to your bucket list.
Our land
Nunavut
Nunavut means “our land” in Inuktitut, and no road links its communities to each other or to the south. Mount Thor, in Auyuittuq, has the world’s greatest vertical drop, about 1,250 metres.
Mountains and sea
British Columbia
Vancouver between the Pacific and the Coast Mountains, the emerald water of Yoho inland. The Great Bear Rainforest is home to the spirit bear, a black bear born with a white coat.
Red cliffs
Prince Edward Island
Red sandstone cliffs, potato fields and the farmhouse that inspired Anne of Green Gables. Canada’s smallest province is tied to the mainland by the 12.9 km Confederation Bridge.
Falls and auroras
Northwest Territories
Virginia Falls in the Nahanni drops about 96 metres, nearly twice the height of Niagara. Yellowknife, on Great Slave Lake, is one of the best places on Earth to see the northern lights.
French North America
Quebec
Old Quebec’s ramparts and the Château Frontenac, Montreal’s festivals and the boreal north. Quebec City is the only fortified city north of Mexico whose walls still stand.
Lighthouses and lobster
Nova Scotia
The granite and lighthouse of Peggy’s Cove, the Cabot Trail round Cape Breton and lobster on every menu. Nowhere in the province is more than about 67 km from the sea.
Polar bear capital
Manitoba
Every autumn polar bears gather at Churchill on Hudson Bay, waiting for the sea to freeze. In summer the same town watches thousands of belugas swim up the Churchill River.
Falls and skylines
Ontario
Toronto and the CN Tower, Parliament Hill in Ottawa and the roar of Niagara Falls. Canada’s most visited province, with some 250,000 lakes beyond the cities.
World’s highest tides
New Brunswick
The Bay of Fundy rises and falls by as much as 16 metres, and at low tide you can walk the sea floor around the Hopewell Rocks. Canada’s only officially bilingual province.
Gold rush wilderness
Yukon
Dawson City still looks as if the Klondike gold rush never ended. Kluane holds Mount Logan, at 5,959 metres the highest peak in Canada.
Big sky country
Saskatchewan
Bison roam the prairie again in Grasslands National Park, under some of the darkest skies in Canada. In the far north, the Athabasca Sand Dunes are the largest active dunes in the country.
Fjords and icebergs
Newfoundland and Labrador
Gros Morne’s fjords, icebergs drifting past each spring and Cape Spear, Canada’s easternmost point. At L’Anse aux Meadows, Vikings landed about a thousand years ago.

Everything this Canadian provinces map can do
A free interactive map of all ten provinces and three territories, for the ones you have been to: no account, no app, nothing uploaded. Here is what sits behind it.
- Free, no account
- Nothing to install
- Stays in your browser
Interactive map of all 13 provinces and territories
Click any province or territory and it fills in at once, from the Yukon to Newfoundland and Labrador. Each carries its two-letter postal code, so Prince Edward Island is as easy to find as Quebec, and on a phone “Taller map” gives you room to swipe from coast to coast.
Provinces visited counter and tracker
A live count out of 13, your share of the country and a progress ring grow with every province or territory you mark. Filter the list by Atlantic, Central, Western or Northern Canada to see what each region still has left.
Provinces and territories checklist
All thirteen in one list, each with its flag and a search. Mark where you have been, lived or want to go, and “Which province to visit next” suggests the most visited, the great outdoors and hidden gems you have not seen yet.
Customize your Canada map
Pick one of four colour themes or set your own colours for land, visited, lived, bucket list and borders. The image of your Canada map that you download comes in the same colours.
Canada travel badges
Five milestones from Bienvenue to Coast to Coast to Coast at all thirteen, plus a badge for each of the four regions you complete, from East Coaster to True North. The ones still ahead show what they take.
Share your Canada map
Your provinces and territories are written into the link itself, so one URL shows your whole map. Send it to the friends from your last road trip, post it, or save your map as an image ready to share.
Frequently asked questions
Short answers to the questions people ask most.
How many Canadian provinces and territories have I been to?
Click every province or territory you have visited on the map, or tick it in the list, and the counter above the map adds them up as you go. It counts out of 13, and the ring beside it shows your share of the country.
How many provinces and territories does Canada have?
Thirteen: ten provinces and three territories, and every one of them is on this map. The provinces are Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Saskatchewan. The territories are the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and the Yukon.
What is the difference between a province and a territory?
Provinces hold their powers directly under Canada’s Constitution, while territories exercise powers the federal Parliament delegates to them. On this map they count the same: a visit to the Yukon moves the counter just as a visit to Ontario does.
Which is the largest province or territory, and which is the smallest?
Nunavut is the largest of the thirteen, at about 2.1 million km², a fifth of the country. Quebec is the largest province, at about 1.5 million km². Prince Edward Island is the smallest of all, at about 5,700 km².
Which Canadian provinces do travellers visit most?
Ontario, followed by British Columbia and Quebec: Statistics Canada’s counts of visitors from abroad put those three at the top. The cards under the badges mix them with the great outdoors and the hidden gems, so you can see where to go next.
What do the two-letter codes on the map mean?
They are the abbreviations Canada Post uses, such as ON for Ontario and QC for Quebec. Every province and territory carries one. Prince Edward Island’s stands just offshore, because the island is too narrow to hold it. Hover any of them to read the full name.
Why does Canada look curved on this map?
Because it is drawn in a Lambert conformal conic projection, the one Statistics Canada uses for its own maps. Most web maps use Mercator, which stretches land towards the pole until the Arctic islands dwarf the provinces south of them. The conic keeps shapes and proportions close to true, which is why the 49th parallel bends instead of running straight.
Is this the same list as my world map?
No. This map keeps its own list, so marking Ontario here does not mark Canada on the world map, or the other way round. There, Canada counts once, as one of 250 countries and territories.
Is the map free, and do I need an account?
It is free, and there is no account to make. Nothing is uploaded: your marks stay in your own browser, and the share button gives you a link that carries your whole map.
