Quebec
Quebec's topography is characterized by three main physiographic regions: the Canadian Shield, the St. Lawrence Lowlands, and the Appalachian Mountains. The Canadian Shield, covering about 90% of the province, features rugged terrain with rocky plateaus, rolling hills, and numerous rivers and lakes formed by glacial erosion. The St. Lawrence Lowlands, concentrated around the St. Lawrence River, offer relatively flat and fertile land, making it ideal for agriculture and urban development. In the southeast, the Appalachian region consists of rounded mountains, deep valleys, and forested plateaus. The province's highest point is Mont d'Iberville (Mount Caubvick), reaching 1,652 meters (5,420 feet) in the Torngat Mountains of northern Quebec. This diverse terrain contributes to Quebec's rich natural landscapes and varied ecosystems.
