You’ve also glossed over the fact that much of the land mass in the territories is uninhabitable. They are covered by northern boreal forest and frozen tundra.
The Inuit of this area lived nomadic lives in the tundra for millennia until as recently as the mid 20th century until the Canadian government forced them into urbanism, taxes that had to be paid with Canadian currency, and educational programs that have lost traditional ways of life. Before having to deal with mining corporations and state institutions the land was very much inhabitable.
Hi! I live in Nunavut. It's beautiful and pretty vast. Just fyi, it is pronounced "New-na-voot". Lots of people pronounce it wrong and it drives my Inuit students crazy. 😂
they’re translated from the native languages of the area quite blandly which makes them seem really strange. there are more examples too, like medicine hat, cut knife, moose jaw, etc.
These are the literal translation of very old native names. Some of them like the name of the country itself “Canada” (Huron-Iroquois for “settlement”), or in the US, Oklahoma (Choctaw for “red people”), Utah (Ute for “mountain people”), Texas (Caddo language for “friend”), Arizona (Oʼodham for “small spring”), or even in England Manchester (Old English/Welsh for “Fort of Breast-like hills”), or Berlin is Old Polabian for “Swamp city”. The name of every place in the world sounds stupid because people from hundreds or thousands of years ago didn’t think like us, and therefore anything they named sounds stupid. The only difference is Canadians for some reason decided to translate some of those old native names. But white horse is much better than breast-like hills (Manchester)
banal? no. they're just translated into English which hides its meaning. The same can be said of a lot of English names except we lost our ability to distinguish names based off of etymology
I guess if you go back enough in time, all current names originated in a similar way. I'm from a city called Pamplona in Spain. The current name is believed to be a modern deformation of the ancient name _Pompelo,_ named as such by the Roman general _Pompeius._ This general got his name from the city of _Pompeii,_ which in turn originates from Oscan (pre-Latin language) word _Pompe,_ meaning "five [villages]". So, if translate it, my hometown would be called "Five Villages City General". Thanks god 2000 years have passed and we can just say Pamplona instead

@Michael Smythe Do the math! The Sq footage of Alaska divided by 8 billion. I'm not suggesting everyone would want to live there, or live on a tiny piece of land. I'm not even suggesting that the craggy, rocky or wet parts would be suitable. Only putting perspective to area/space. Now look at the size of the world and tell me 8 billion can't fit. My point, as you mentioned, is that large cities are over crowded (intentionally I believe). Now take the Sq footage of the World and tell me how/why 8B can't live comfortably.
Alaska is 665,384 Sq MILES. There are 27,878,400 Sq Feet in Each Mile. 27878400 X 665384 = 18,549,841,305,600 Sq Feet. Divide that by 7B (that's 9 zeros) = 2,649.97 Sq Feet for each person. I was wrong. I thought it was only 1,000 Sq Ft per person. ( Not saying you Have to live on only 2,650 Sq Ft. Just Sayin' Check my math.) Oh. Originally I calculated meters. This time I calculated Feet because I figured you're American.
The land wasn’t split up in different provinces but rather split between each provinces that already existed in 1870, that’s why Ontario and Quebec extend their territory to the north. Each western provinces (Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta) were later created at different date.

The saddest part is in the Northwest Territories it cost almost the same to live in Yellowknife as it does to live in Toronto.

@@hehe-jg8zz Exactly! My point is that humans are being herded into cities and towns, for better control, especially centre's with one road in and out, the Feds can block them. It's the Cities that are over crowded. Banks foreclosed on farms requiring people to move to towns and cities. Now here comes 15 min cities. The World is not overpopulated. Look how big Canada is. I can drive 3 hours at 120 km/hrs and not see a soul. Look how big Brazil is!
@@hehe-jg8zz As an Indian, only some states in here contribute to overpopulation meanwhile places like north east India have little to no people
@Michael Smythe Do the math! The Sq footage of Alaska divided by 8 billion. I'm not suggesting everyone would want to live there, or live on a tiny piece of land. I'm not even suggesting that the craggy, rocky or wet parts would be suitable. Only putting perspective to area/space. Now look at the size of the world and tell me 8 billion can't fit. My point, as you mentioned, is that large cities are over crowded (intentionally I believe). Now take the Sq footage of the World and tell me how/why 8B can't live comfortably.
Alaska is 665,384 Sq MILES. There are 27,878,400 Sq Feet in Each Mile. 27878400 X 665384 = 18,549,841,305,600 Sq Feet. Divide that by 7B (that's 9 zeros) = 2,649.97 Sq Feet for each person. I was wrong. I thought it was only 1,000 Sq Ft per person. ( Not saying you Have to live on only 2,650 Sq Ft. Just Sayin' Check my math.) Oh. Originally I calculated meters. This time I calculated Feet because I figured you're American.
Thank you! Very interesting info👍
The land wasn’t split up in different provinces but rather split between each provinces that already existed in 1870, that’s why Ontario and Quebec extend their territory to the north. Each western provinces (Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta) were later created at different date.
" Canada has three territories" Vimy Ridge: " am I a joke to you?"
Vimy ridge is not a canadian territory. It was ceded from France for the sole purpose of creating the memorial. Should Canada ever decide to dismantle the memorial the land would return to France.
@@matthewgasparin7000 it is still a Canadian territory
@@CONSTANTINEXI63 I not an official territory. Vimy Ridge is another thing.
Free territories? Can I have one!?
Hell, when did you want crackheads homeless people and people will be stealing your money
Why split the territories, Could it be for tax and control reasons?
As a Canadian I recognize our territories as just regular provinces like the rest of them
Near as I can tell, the only difference is they only have 1 member of Parliament which makes sense given that a lot of federal seats have constituents of around 50-100,000 people.
Cored but not stated
EU4 enjoyer spotted
Wow! I didn't realize how few people lived in those territories until I realized they had the same population as my town and were in a tiny village.
40,000 people living in Mexico sized permafrost land, imagine the minerals that like within
This shows that we have an under population problem
Not really. These territories can't provide enough food production to sustain big populations. Those living there depend on goods coming from south.
That's the understatement of the century
Roughly 77% of Russia's population lives West of the Ural mountains. Because East of those mountains is frozen, arctic wasteland
It's nice to have abandoned places
According to Musk the world is under populated despite what the talking bobble heads in Washington say & Bill Rapes. Oops I meant Gates. Lol The earth can easily support more than the current estimate of 8 billion people & in many parts of the world due to abortions they have an aging population where many more are dying than are being born every year. All ya need to do to confirm this is to simply look up the ratio of births to deaths in any given year in any country to know that in actuality the world is uderpopulated...Musk says he worries more about population collapse than he does over population due to aging populations & birth to death ratios.
Canadians used a random word generator for city names 💀
Whereas Americans in some parts of the USA use a random letter generator.
NO... they originated from native language words... so they are unlike any European names!
They are Inuit names, you are just uncultured
My very small town has population of 56k people, and such a big territories have less😮
My city in rural Brazil, has more people than these 3 territories (45 thousand people)
Why is it called Nunavut, the rest of Canada didn't want none of it.
Aint no way they named a city yellowknife💀💀💀
They were named that because it's the English translation of the original native name. Canada itself was named after what the Natives the colonisers found had told them it was called. Granted it was actually kanata and it stems from a misunderstanding but it's based around a native word
Iqaluit and it's people are lovely. Their legislature is really cool.
Yellowknife where I grew up. Great place.
What was the important moral lesson we all learned from this video?
We're all just a bunch of walking, talking, breathing semen.
I also prefer whitehorse compared to black ones
The 6 mile by 6 mile suburban town I live in in the US has 60K people. The township I lived in before was the same size and had 40k people and its literally half park/nature preserve.
I live in the Yukon about 70 miles Northeast of Whitehorse…. We love to get out into the wild which is so close to us.
Why does everyone not from Canada mispronounce Nunavut
Because we have no idea how to pronounce it because we were never taught how to pronounce it why would we
hell most canadians mispronounce it and have no clue where it is
“New” “nah” “voot”
@@Dudjfjdjidifsi thanks
@@zach2382 the point is that if your making an educational video you could definitely Google the pronunciation to make sure you say it right. It takes like 2 minutes to do
Why can't these people properly pronounce these titles? Why are they constantly narriratated by people that have never seen or heard of these words before?
Because why would people not living around the area have any idea how to pronounce it correctly
I used to live in Yellowknife. Loved it up there.
Canada is Perfect.
Our Territories are absolutely amazing.😍
I'd like to visit yellowKNIFE and whiteHORSE
Why did i white horse?
The saddest part is in the Northwest Territories it cost almost the same to live in Yellowknife as it does to live in Toronto. All because the territorial government can’t get its act together and work with the federal government and indigenous peoples to settle land claims. Which means the city can’t expand until they do.
All that land, only 45,000 people and $2,200/month for a 2 bedroom in an apartment building that looks more ghetto than the buildings at Jane and Finch.
Lo cierto es que NU tiene 900.000 km² menos que México aproximadamente; pero como utiliza la proyeccion Mercator, hasta parece que NU🇨🇦 es mas grande que todo México🇲🇽
Nunavut IS bigger than Mexico, Mercator or not.
Nunavut is still bigger, all it takes is a simple google search
These three territories combined have few more inhabitants then my neighbourhood
Bro really said “the size of Mexico”
It’s actually bigger at 2.01m vs Mexico at 1.90m
Us Snow Mexicans have a lot of room to stretch out. It's nice.
For a second a thought he said,
“free territories” which translated in my head to: “free real estate”
that last territory is rugged and cold as hell.
Gotta love the srtaight verticle line borders
There’s also numerous towns and these territories, I was born in a small town so you know it is pretty peaceful, sure there’s not much happening but at least you know everyone
I'll take a shot for each time he says "territory"
"Nawth Whestun Territries"
"North Western Territories"
40,000 + 40,000 + 40,000
Each one of the 3 states are huge but no population
Are those the least density of the world ?
No Mongolia I think is less dense because of a desert could be wrong though
@@SquidMonke4
Mongolia 1,600,000 km2 ..

@@liberalegypt but they all live in 1 city so excluding that 1 city the ENTIRE land mass is empty

And even if it was all population in one city
North Canada will be more than double size area of their land mass without their capital city

Finally something factual, correct and to the point ☝️
It's "Northwest Territories" not "Northwestern Territories". It's right on the map, guy.
Should use a globe to show northern Canada because it looks way bigger than it is on the Mercator projection
I live in Canada and I've visited every region except Newfoundland and the north. NF is on my bucket list but also other places around the world.
Just think about this, my home city of Plymouth Minnesota has twice the amount of people as all of Nunavut. Wtf
Gonna be busy soon enough, with the artic opening up
Fact: Nunavut has a land area larger than Mexico.
