- Reaction To What is the Highest Point in Each Canadian Province and Territory? (Canadian Geography)
This is my reaction to What is the Highest Point in Each Canadian Province and Territory?
In this video I react to Canadian Geography by reacting to the highest mountains in Canadian in each province and territory in Canada.
Original Video - • What is the Highest Po...
My cat (now deceased) was named after Alexander Mackenzie, famous explorer of the arctic. So are the Mackenzie Mountains, the Mackenzie River and a bunch of other things. Mackenzie (c. 1764 - 12 March 1820) was born in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland. He arrived in Canada as a teenager. He was the first European to cross the North American continent over the Rockies and Coast Ranges all the way to the Pacific Ocean at Bella Coola, British Columbia --- accompanied by six French Canadian "voyageurs" (those guys who would paddle canoes in the wilderness, apparently singing all the time) and a dog named "Dog." He also followed the Mackenzie River up to its mouth on the Arctic Ocean. He eventually returned to Scotland, married a Laird's daughter and live in a castle. The even MORE spectacular explorer David Thompson (1770-1857) was probably the greatest cartographer in history --- unfortunately died in poverty almost as bad as he started in childhood, but in between mapped a gigantic chunk of North America, accompanied by his Métis wife, a faithful couple for 57 years. She shared most of his adventures. My other cat, still living, and Mackenzie's brother, is named after Thompson.
Mackenzie and Thompson are referenced in the song "Northwest Passage" by the folk singer Stan Rogers. This song is deeply embedded in Canadian culture, and is something you should listen to, along with many others he composed.
I've seen Mt. Logan ---- at a distance, in a small airplane. A landscape spectacular beyond description. It's summit was not reached until 1925, by a team from the Alpine Club of Canada. It took 65 days of marching just to reach the base of the mountain from the nearest town. The peak is seldom photographed, as it is usually wrapped in clouds and pummeled by blizzards.
As a Canadian, wow. Thanks for this comment. Amazing!
I’ve been to the lookout tower on Baldy Mountain in Manitoba. It’s a stunning view.
Beautiful indeed! Any that high in the Grampians? I am Canadian, but lived in Scotland. Both countries have things to love! The architecture of Scotland was my favorite, and now living in Newfoundland the Seascapes are dreamy! Thank you for sharing all of this, it makes me incredibly proud to be Canadian
the appalachian mountain range was once the tallest in the world, even taller than mount Everest. but it's so old that now most of the mountains are only about 600m tall
About Mont d'Iberville... It may be the highest point in Québec but no one ever mentions it. It's SO remote that nobody is going to bother just getting to that mountain. No road goes there. Actually, the northernmost municipality that is accessible by road (connected to the south of the province) is Radisson, where our largest hydroelectric dam is located (LG-2). That's 1024 km away from Mont d'Iberville. The North of the province is only accessible by boat or by plane. Excluding this mountain, I've ascended one that's also fairly high in Québec. It's called "Mont Gosford". It's in the Eatern Townships and it's 1180 meters high. When the weather is clear, you can see Mount Washington (NH) out in the distance from the summit (about 175km away)
Have you reviewed the series "Corner Gas"? Pure Canadian gold!
one of my friends in high school was named Logan, he was a beast and his father was native, i think he knew. i just learned something today. thanks.
This was a great video!!
Explorers Alexander Mackenzie and Simon Fraser (Fraser River) would both make interesting videos.
Alexander McKenzie was indeed a Scot and an incredible and curious explorer of Canada’s vast wilderness. I worked on BC’s Westcoast and saw a carved rock from a float plane in the 1980s (see attached link). Alexander McKenzie and the year was carved into the rock. There is now a monument recognizing his achievements. He was the first European to cross Canada, which include our three coasts.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Alexander_Mackenzie_Provincial_Park
In 1789 Alexander Mackenzie made his historic journey northward from the trading post of Fort Chipewyan on Lake Athabasca, exploring, with a crew of 12 in three canoes, the full length of the river that now bears his name.
Not to be confused with Alexander Mackenzie the second prime minister of Canada.

Watch some Forest Forest videos. Or Destination adventure. Both amazing cinematography and just all around good Canadian kids
Hi Mert how about the Cabot Trail by Destination Earth?
The Mount Robson hike to the first lake isn't too bad, it has its moments and you do need a jacket in the summer cuz it does get nippy.
That's Kinney Lake. 7 hours to Berg Lake from the parking lot. Watch for bears and mule deer.
No mention of the laurentien mountains?
When the St. Laurence and Champain vallies were an inland sea...
Umm, obviously they are NOT the highest points in the province. .
This video is about the highest points in each province/territory .
Leaves Nova Scotia..."and now to the mainland!" Er...we're attached. For now, at least.
You should react to the song “out for a rip” by shark tank since ur into Canada, that song sums up most actual Canadians and it’s funny
the ontario one is a fucking 30 minute drive from my house fr
it would be cool if you reacted to the movie goon. No one on YT has reacted to the movie.
Fun fact : the Scottish Highlands are technically the Appalachian mountains as they used to connect at nova Scotia.
That’s cool. I had no idea
Ha! I almost made viewer #1
How flat does a place have to be for its highest point to be a bald mountain.
Ai...shouldn't call Us Great white North...! It's too inaccurate..
You say you are really interested to learn about Canada, but appear to have several channels (kept separate) where you do the same schtick about other countries, again relying on other people’s content and monetizing their work
Whats your point? Are you jealous?
So he can't want to learn about other countries?
All of his videos are REACTIONS to others work or knowledge that he didn't know about before. Understand now? Or do I need to speak slower?
I do have sympathy for your point. I am getting increasingly annoyed with reposts of others’ hard work, offering minimal commentary to freshen the pay recipient. Having said that, I’d suggest the best strategy for discouraging the behaviour is to stop opening the videos and generating payment. I’m becoming increasingly picky on the “commentary” videos.
@@grumben123 it's irritated me for a while, but since a creator spoke about the problem every reasonably, I decided to call it out. It's interesting that people seem to be upset at anyone questioning the people who are taking them for mugs
