Where is the Palliser Triangle located?

• A. The prairies of eastern Canada
• B. The driest region extending from southwestern Manitoba to Southern Alberta
• C. The coastal region of British Columbia
• D. The Arctic tundra

Answer: (B)

Think of the Palliser Triangle as a dry pocket in the Canadian Prairies. It’s known for low rainfall and arid conditions, and it runs roughly from southwestern Manitoba down into Southern Alberta (including parts of southern Saskatchewan). That makes it the driest stretch of the prairie region, which is why this description matches best. The other options point to regions outside that prairie belt or in far different climates (eastern Canada prairies, coastal British Columbia, Arctic tundra) and don’t fit the Palliser area.
