@siderea @mayintoronto. I grew up on the South Shore of the St. Lawrence, which this map seems to indicate is outside the boundary of the Canadian Shield (unlike most of Quebec). I'm surprised to find that my home was on land that's not part of the Canadian Shield.

On the prairies (at least, historically) farmers had rich, dark soil topsoil to work with. Ours was a light, sandy brown. Very different. And, yes, rocky.
