Ontario is Canada's second largest province, covering more than one million square kilometers (415,000 square miles). More than
12 million people live in Ontario.
The name "Ontario" is derived from a native word, possibly "Onitariio" or "Kanadario", loosely
translated as "beautiful" or "sparkling" water or lake.
Ontario is bordered by Quebec to the east, Manitoba to the west, Hudson Bay
& James Bay to the north, and the Great Lakes & St. Lawrence River to the south.
Ontario's 1/4 million lakes and countless
rivers & streams comprise approximately one-third of the world's fresh water. The rivers of southern Ontario flow into the Atlantic
Ocean, by way of the Great Lakes & the St. Lawrence River system.
