What is the approximate geographic distribution of the First Nations people?

  1. Nearly all live in urban centres

  2. About half live on reserve land in about 600 communities

  3. Mostly populated in the southern region of Canada

  4. Primarily located in the northern territories

The correct answer is: About half live on reserve land in about 600 communities

The approximate geographic distribution of the First Nations people is primarily on reserve land in approximately 600 communities. This makes option B the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because it states that nearly all First Nations people live in urban centres, which is not true as a large portion live on reserves. Option C is incorrect because it states that the majority of First Nations people live in the southern region of Canada, which is not the case as many also live in the northern territories. Option D is incorrect because it states that First Nations people are primarily located in the northern territories, which is not accurate as there is a significant population on reserve land in the southern regions as well.
