Canada Provinces and Territories Map Worksheet - Identify and label each province and territory.

To solve this problem, we need to match each number on the map of Canada to the correct province or territory. Let’s go step by step, using geography knowledge and the list provided.

We’ll start from the west coast and move eastward, then north.

---

West Coast:

- 1 is on the far west — that’s British Columbia.
- 2 is just east of BC — that’s Alberta.
- 3 is east of Alberta — that’s Saskatchewan.
- 4 is east of Saskatchewan — that’s Manitoba.

---

Central & Eastern Provinces:

- 5 is south of Hudson Bay, west of Quebec — that’s Ontario.
- 6 is large, east of Ontario, includes Montreal — that’s Quebec.
- 7 is a small island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence — that’s Prince Edward Island.
- 8 is south of PEI, connected to mainland — that’s Nova Scotia.
- 9 is north of Nova Scotia, connected to Quebec — that’s New Brunswick.
- 10 is the easternmost part — Newfoundland and Labrador (the island part) — so Newfoundland, Labrador.
- 11 is the northern part of Labrador? Wait — actually, looking at the map, 11 is the mainland part of Newfoundland and Labrador? But wait — no, let’s check again.

Actually, looking carefully:

- 10 is the island of Newfoundland → part of Newfoundland, Labrador
- 11 is the mainland portion of Labrador → also part of Newfoundland, Labrador? But that can’t be right because each number should be one province/territory.

Wait — correction: In standard Canadian maps:

- The area labeled 11 is actually Labrador, which is part of the province Newfoundland and Labrador — but since the worksheet lists “Newfoundland, Labrador” as one item, it likely refers to the whole province. So perhaps 10 is Newfoundland (island), and 11 is Labrador (mainland)? But the worksheet treats them as one entry.

Looking back at the list:
“Newfoundland, Labrador” is listed as ONE item.

So probably, 10 is the island (Newfoundland), and 11 is the mainland (Labrador) — but they are both part of the same province. However, in many educational maps, they label the entire province under one number. But here, two numbers are given for that region.

Wait — let’s look again at the map layout:

Actually, in most standard labeling:

- 10 = Newfoundland (island)
- 11 = Labrador (mainland part of the same province)

But since the worksheet says “Newfoundland, Labrador” as one name, maybe we assign that name to either 10 or 11? That doesn’t make sense.

Alternatively — perhaps I misidentified.

Let me reorient with standard Canadian provincial boundaries:

Standard order from west to east:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. New Brunswick
8. Nova Scotia
9. Prince Edward Island
10. Newfoundland and Labrador (island)
11. ??? — wait, what is 11?

Looking at the map again mentally:

After Quebec (6), going northeast:

- 7 is between NB and NS? No — actually, in the Maritimes:

Typical labeling:

- 7 = Prince Edward Island (small island)
- 8 = Nova Scotia (peninsula)
- 9 = New Brunswick (north of NS, south of QC)
- 10 = Newfoundland (island)
- 11 = Labrador (mainland part of NL province) — but again, same province.

This is confusing. Perhaps the map labels 11 as the mainland part, but since the province is called “Newfoundland and Labrador”, we might have to choose one number for it? But there are two numbers.

Wait — let’s count the total provinces and territories.

Canada has:

Provinces (10):
BC, AB, SK, MB, ON, QC, NB, NS, PEI, NL

Territories (3):
YT, NT, NU

Total: 13

But the map has 14 numbers! Oh — wait, the list includes 14 items:

List:
Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Labrador, North West Territories, Nova Scotia, Nunavut, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan, Yukon Territory

That’s 14 names — but “Newfoundland, Labrador” is written as one line, meaning it’s one province. So why 14 numbers?

Wait — let’s count the list items:

1. Alberta
2. British Columbia
3. Manitoba
4. New Brunswick
5. Newfoundland, Labrador ← one item
6. North West Territories
7. Nova Scotia
8. Nunavut
9. Ontario
10. Prince Edward Island
11. Quebec
12. Saskatchewan
13. Yukon Territory

That’s only 13 items? Wait, let me recount the user’s list:

User wrote:

"Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba,
New Brunswick,
Newfoundland,
Labrador,
North West Territories,
Nova Scotia,
Nunavut,
Ontario,
Prince Edward Island,
Quebec,
Saskatchewan,
Yukon Territory,"

Oh! They wrote “Newfoundland,” and “Labrador,” as separate lines? Or is it “Newfoundland, Labrador” as one?

In the text box, it says:

“Newfoundland,
Labrador,”

With a comma after Newfoundland and then Labrador on next line — but in context, it’s likely meant to be “Newfoundland and Labrador” as one province.

But in the list, if you count each line:

Line 1: Alberta
Line 2: British Columbia
Line 3: Manitoba
Line 4: New Brunswick
Line 5: Newfoundland,
Line 6: Labrador,
Line 7: North West Territories
Line 8: Nova Scotia
Line 9: Nunavut
Line 10: Ontario
Line 11: Prince Edward Island
Line 12: Quebec
Line 13: Saskatchewan
Line 14: Yukon Territory

Ah! So they listed “Newfoundland,” and “Labrador,” as two separate entries? That would be incorrect geographically, but perhaps for the purpose of this worksheet, they are treating them separately? That doesn't make sense.

Wait — looking back at the original image description (even though I shouldn't describe it, I need to interpret correctly).

Actually, in reality, "Newfoundland and Labrador" is one province. The comma might be separating the full name.

But in the list provided in the gray box, it's written as:

"Newfoundland,
Labrador,"

Which suggests two separate items? But that would be wrong.

Perhaps it's a typo in my reading.

Let me assume standard knowledge:

Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories = 13 regions.

But the map has 14 numbers. What’s missing?

Wait — the territories:

- Yukon (west)
- Northwest Territories (central north)
- Nunavut (eastern north, including Arctic islands)

On the map:

- 14 is top left — that’s Yukon Territory
- 13 is central north — that’s Northwest Territories
- 12 is eastern north, with arrow pointing to an island group — that’s Nunavut

Then the southern parts:

From west to east:

- 1: BC
- 2: AB
- 3: SK
- 4: MB
- 5: ON
- 6: QC
- 7: PEI
- 8: NS
- 9: NB
- 10: NL (island)
- 11: ? — if 10 is NL island, then 11 must be Labrador mainland — but same province.

Unless... in some old maps, Labrador was considered separate, but not anymore.

Perhaps 11 is not part of NL — let's think differently.

Another possibility: 11 is the Gaspé Peninsula or something? No.

Let's use elimination.

List all 14 required answers based on standard map labeling:

Commonly used numbering for Canadian provinces/territories in such worksheets:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. New Brunswick
8. Nova Scotia
9. Prince Edward Island
10. Newfoundland and Labrador
11. Yukon Territory
12. Northwest Territories
13. Nunavut
14. ? — wait, only 13.

I see the issue — the map has 14 numbers, but Canada has only 13 provinces and territories. Unless... did they split Newfoundland and Labrador into two?

Looking back at the user's list: they have "Newfoundland," and "Labrador," on separate lines, suggesting they want them treated as two separate entities for this exercise? That would be unusual, but possible for a simplified worksheet.

Perhaps "Labrador" here refers to the region, and "Newfoundland" to the island, and they are assigning different numbers.

In that case:

- 10 = Newfoundland (island)
- 11 = Labrador (mainland)

And the province is called "Newfoundland and Labrador", but for this map, they are splitting it.

Similarly, the list has them as separate items.

So let's proceed with that assumption, as it matches the 14 numbers.

Also, the territories:

- 14 = Yukon (far northwest)
- 13 = Northwest Territories (north central)
- 12 = Nunavut (northeast, including Baffin Island etc.)

Now, the Maritimes:

- 7 = Prince Edward Island (smallest, in Gulf)
- 8 = Nova Scotia (peninsula)
- 9 = New Brunswick (between QC and NS)

Then:

- 6 = Quebec
- 5 = Ontario
- 4 = Manitoba
- 3 = Saskatchewan
- 2 = Alberta
- 1 = British Columbia

Now, what about 11? If 10 is Newfoundland island, then 11 is Labrador mainland.

And 12 is Nunavut.

So let's compile:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. Prince Edward Island
8. Nova Scotia
9. New Brunswick
10. Newfoundland
11. Labrador
12. Nunavut
13. Northwest Territories
14. Yukon Territory

But "Newfoundland" and "Labrador" are parts of the same province, but since the worksheet lists them separately and has 14 numbers, we'll go with this.

Note: In reality, it's one province, but for this exercise, we follow the map and list.

Also, confirm the territories:

- Yukon is smallest, westernmost territory → 14
- Northwest Territories is larger, central north → 13
- Nunavut is largest, eastern north, includes Arctic archipelago → 12

Yes.

So final matching:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. Prince Edward Island
8. Nova Scotia
9. New Brunswick
10. Newfoundland
11. Labrador
12. Nunavut
13. Northwest Territories
14. Yukon Territory

But wait — in the list, it's "Newfoundland, Labrador" as one item? No, in the user's text, it's written as two lines: "Newfoundland," and "Labrador,", so likely intended as two separate answers.

To confirm, let's see if all 14 are covered.

List from worksheet:

- Alberta → 2
- British Columbia → 1
- Manitoba → 4
- New Brunswick → 9
- Newfoundland → 10
- Labrador → 11
- North West Territories → 13
- Nova Scotia → 8
- Nunavut → 12
- Ontario → 5
- Prince Edward Island → 7
- Quebec → 6
- Saskatchewan → 3
- Yukon Territory → 14

Perfect match.

So now, write the answers in order:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. Prince Edward Island
8. Nova Scotia
9. New Brunswick
10. Newfoundland
11. Labrador
12. Nunavut
13. Northwest Territories
14. Yukon Territory

Note: For #10 and #11, even though they are part of the same province, the worksheet treats them separately based on the list provided.

Final Answer:

1. British Columbia
2. Alberta
3. Saskatchewan
4. Manitoba
5. Ontario
6. Quebec
7. Prince Edward Island
8. Nova Scotia
9. New Brunswick
10. Newfoundland
11. Labrador
12. Nunavut
13. Northwest Territories
14. Yukon Territory
