Printable map activity for learning Canadian geography.

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a map of Canada with 13 numbered regions (provinces and territories). We need to match each number to the correct name from the list provided.

Here is the list of names we have to use:
- British Columbia
- Alberta
- Yukon
- Newfoundland
- Nova Scotia
- Prince Edward Island
- Manitoba
- Northwest Territories
- Ontario
- Saskatchewan
- New Brunswick
- Quebec
- Nunavut

Now, let’s identify each region on the map based on its location:

1. Top left corner – This is the far northwest part of Canada → That’s Yukon
2. Just east of Yukon, still in the north → That’s Northwest Territories
3. Large area covering most of northern Canada → That’s Nunavut
4. Eastern province, big and central-east → That’s Quebec
5. Province just west of Quebec, around the Great Lakes → That’s Ontario
6. West coast, Pacific Ocean side → That’s British Columbia
7. Southwest, below BC → That’s Alberta
8. East of Alberta, prairie province → That’s Saskatchewan
9. East of Saskatchewan, another prairie province → That’s Manitoba
10. Small island off the east coast, near Nova Scotia → That’s Prince Edward Island
11. Peninsula sticking out into the Atlantic, south of Quebec → That’s New Brunswick
12. Island off the east coast, larger than PEI → That’s Nova Scotia
13. Farthest east, island province → That’s Newfoundland

Wait — let’s double-check because sometimes people mix up Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.

Actually, looking again:

- Number 12 is the peninsula connected to New Brunswick → that’s Nova Scotia
- Number 13 is the large island farther east → that’s Newfoundland

Also, note: Prince Edward Island is very small and located between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia — so it should be number 10 or 11? Let’s check standard maps.

Standard Canadian geography:

From west to east:

- West Coast: BC (#6)
- Then Alberta (#7), Saskatchewan (#8), Manitoba (#9)
- Then Ontario (#5), Quebec (#4)
- Atlantic provinces:
- New Brunswick (#11)
- Nova Scotia (#12)
- Prince Edward Island (#10) — tiny island between them
- Newfoundland (#13) — big island to the east

Northern territories:

- Yukon (#1) — top left
- Northwest Territories (#2) — east of Yukon
- Nunavut (#3) — huge area covering Arctic and eastern north

So now let’s assign numbers correctly:

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

Yes, that matches standard Canadian provincial/territorial layout.

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