Hudson Bay Lowlands

[edit] Hudson Bay Lowlands
Just as the Innuitian Mountains are not well known, the Hudson Bay Lowlands are also not familiar to most Canadians. This is a small, poorly drained piece of land wedged between the Canadian Shield and southern shores of Hudson Bay and James Bay.[1] Many wide and slow-moving rivers flow through this area toward the salt water of Hudson Bay. Mosquitoes and black flies thrive here. This is a sparsely populated region. There are a few small First Nations settlements on the southern shore of Hudson Bay at places like Moose Factory, Moosonee, and Fort Severn.
