What is the meaning of Canada's national motto "mari usque ad mare"?

Peace and Justice for all
Strength in Unity
From Sea to Sea
Liberty and Prosperity

The correct answer is: From Sea to Sea

Canada's national motto, "mari usque ad mare," translates to "from sea to sea." This phrase is taken from the Latin version of Psalm 728, which states "Et dominabitur a mari usque ad mare, et a flumine usque ad terminos terrae", meaning "He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth." This motto represents Canada's vast and diverse landscape, spanning from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. It also speaks to the country's potential for growth and prosperity from coast to coast. Options A, B, and D do not accurately reflect the meaning of Canada's national motto and can be eliminated as incorrect choices.
