Heartland & Waterways — Central Canada Wall Map (1963)

A crisp portrait of Ontario and the central Canadian heartland at mid-century. Published by National Geographic in July 1963, this sheet blends elegant cartography with practical reference—complete with inset maps of Toronto and detailed river sections. Provincial boundaries, cities and towns, transportation networks, and hydrography are rendered with clarity that rewards both wall display and close study. A perfect companion to Western Canada (1966) and Eastern Canada (1967).


More Than a Map – Canada’s Dynamic Core

Created alongside the feature “Canada’s Dynamic Heartland, Ontario,” this edition captures a region in motion—industrial corridors, inland ports, and lake-and-river systems that tie communities together. Ideal for educators, researchers, designers, travelers, and collectors, it balances narrative context with fine-grained geographic detail.
