Question

Geography scholars have examined Canada as a land of regions since the late 19th century. Why do you think it is necessary to divide a country like Canada into regions? Is it necessary that the regions defined by geographers are the same as the regions perceived by the people who live in them? Discuss why or why not. When making your points, provide one or two examples of different regions.
