Which areas make up Canada's Northern region?

  1. Alberta, Ontario, Quebec

  2. Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta

  3. Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Yukon Territory

  4. British Columbia, Nunavut, Yukon Territory

The correct answer is: Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Yukon Territory

The Northern region of Canada refers to the northernmost territory composed of three specific territories Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and Yukon Territory. This region includes remote and sparsely populated areas with harsh climates and vast open spaces. Option A is incorrect because Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec are all provinces found in different regions of Canada. Option B is also incorrect because it contains provinces, not territories, and is missing Yukon Territory. Option D is incorrect because it contains British Columbia which is not part of the Northern region. Thus, the correct answer is C - Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and Yukon Territory.
