Canada Isn't What You Think: Something Huge Is Hiding Out There

Canada looks peaceful from above — but beneath the surface, it is one of the most extreme places on Earth.

In this DiscoverTube investigation, we explore Canada’s ancient rocks, active volcanic regions, Cascadia earthquake risk, asteroid impact scars, disappearing glaciers, strange gravity anomalies, prehistoric landscapes, megafires and rapidly changing Arctic terrain.

From the Canadian Shield to the Pacific Ring of Fire, Canada preserves billions of years of Earth’s history while still changing in real time.

The deeper scientists look, the stranger the country becomes.
