CANADIAN SHIELD
Soil and Natural Vegetation
The Canadian Shield has the boreal forest in the south and tundra in the north. Some types of trees include birch, aspen, spruce, willow and pine. In addition, the soil is too thin to be of use as only a thin layer now covers the Canadian Shield. Hence it poor for farming but it is well suited for mining and recreation because of its scenic rivers, waterfalls, lakes, rock out cropping's, and vast forests.
