The heartland of Canada, On- tario, is as big as Texas and much of California, is 1,000) miles from east to west and | 1,050 miles from south to north, | and contains more than 64,000 | square miles of fresh water in its parts of the Great Lakes pius a quarter million smaller Jakes and countless tributary and connecting streams. It's impossible, of course, for any Ontarioan to meet or even! see all of the 5,600,000 people -- a third of the population of the entire nation -- his province couldn't probably understand some anyway, because of dif- ferences in languages -- the French-Canadian, German, Dutch, Scandinavian, Balkan | and Mediterranean tongues of | immigrants -- but he will find, in those he meets, that his fel- Jow citizens are friendly, It will take the Ontarioans at Jeast part of his tour to realize why about four-fifths of the people live in the southern part of the Province -- 1,400,000 in | Metropolitan Toronto alone | which makes it the 7th largest | united metro area in North | America -- for, although agri- | culture, forestry, pulp and NEE | of the trucks made in Canada | fluenced this development; paper and mining are of tre- mendous economic importance, | the manufacturing output is | Many times greater, more than equalling that of the other nine provinces. For instance, the gross value of the products eminating from the Province's 14,000 manufac- turing plants is $1014 millions. All of the automobiles and most are produced in Ontario; 465,000 units a year. The province ac- | counts for 94 per cent of Can- | ada's heavy electrical machin- ery output, 70 per cent of elec- | tric appliances, and 80 per cent of its primary iron, Steel, and | rubber goods production. Ontario's industrial strength has not been accidentally ac- quired. A number of factors in- proximity to the Great Lakes, access via the St. Lawrence | River to the sea, great natural | wealth, low cost hydro-electric | | Power, extensive rail and water transportation facilities, large labor force, expanding markets and a moderate tax structure. Ontario also possesses a plen- | tiful supply of clean, clear water | for domestic and industrial use | at cheap rates. A. moderate climate combines with the fer- tile soils to facilitate the produc- | tion of most of the various foods | required in a modern urban economy. Agriculture, of course, is and always will be a basic factor in Ontario's economy.

Forestwise, the position of the Province is im- proving. Timber cutting rights are leased -- the land is not sold -- and operators are re- for their ensuing season's cut before receiving work permits. Pulp and paper and other forest industries rang up a $510 mil- lion total output figure in 1956. Newsprint production was equiv- alent to every 5th page of all U.S. newspapers. The diversi- fied industries. also produce wrapping papers, fine papers, kraft products, corrugated materials, and rayon yarns. Ontario's publicly-owned hy- dro-electric power commission has a dependalbe capacity of more than 6 million horsepower and supplies most of the Proy- ince's communities including a number of "frontier" settie- ments in the northern areas.
