Not true for most of Canada on the Shield, the vast majority of land is close to barren rock, very hard rock at that, and way too cold & remote for economically viable anything (without huge subsidies from Ottawa), any mining/farming/etc. only happens in unusual pockets, like Sudbury where a big asteroid hit relatively recently in the geological past.
