The Interior Plains of Canada are important because they contain both mineral and forest resources which provide raw materials for industry and rich soils for farming. The southern and eastern region contains fertile soils and sufficient rainfall to support wheat farming. The region is called the Bread Basket of Canada. The northern region contains forested lands, with the trees exploited for lumber, pulp, and paper.
The interior plains of Canada covers a giant swath of the country, encompassing most of the province of Saskatchewan and almost all of Alberta, including large portions of Manitoba and the Northwest Territories. The southern part of the interior plains make up what is known as the prairies, where most of the country's food is grown.

Anthony Henday was one of the first white men to explore the interior of the Canadian northwest. He was a native of the Isle of Wight who was a convicted smuggler and joined the Hudson's Bay Company in 1750 as a net-maker and labourer.
James Wolfe was buried on the plains of abraham. A memorial was erected in his name on the spot he died on the plains.
The Prairies are considered Canada's breadbasket, and are the Canadian section of a much larger North American region called the Interior Plains. The Prairies consist of three provinces: Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

The Interior Plains is a vast region of North America that stretches from Canada's western arctic region all the way down to the border of Mexico. The Great Plains is a term used mainly in the US, referring to a large section of the Interior Plains, west of the Mississippi. The term includes Canadian territory, but is rarely used in Canada. In Canada it is more common to refer to the entire Interior Plains as one unit, or to use the term prairie. Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are commonly called the Prairie Provinces.
The Interior Plains Region is located in Canada and the United States. The Interior Plains were formed when cratons collided and welded together. The Interior Plains Region is mostly flat due to more than 500 million years of relative tectonic stability. The only exception to the flatness is the Black Hills of South Dakota. The Interior Plains region in Canada is called Canada's breadbasket. There are more than 4,000,000 people in the interior plains region. Metamorphic and igneous rocks now form the basement of the Interior Plains and make up the stable important elements of North America. The Interior Plains were covered by shallow inland seas. Sediments from the shield and the Rocky Mountains were deposited in these seas over millions of years.
