Palaeozoic and Mesozoic part is messed up. Someone changed everything in there. I would edit ti but I dont know enough about the topic.


--Got rid of "The Land" section. What wasn't poorly written, false, or already stated previously in the article was extraneous info at best.

Interior Platform vs Interior Plains

As is happening commonly across Wikipedia, there is some confusion going on between physiographic regions and phsyiogeologic ones; Intermontane Platform is the geologic zone/belt, Interior Plains is the physiographic landform. These should be separated and delineated; same as how Intermontane Belt and Intermontane Plateaus (in Canada known as the Interior System) are different in scope/shape and meaning. Geography and geology are not quite the same thing.....Skookum1 (talk) 02:18, 11 March 2009 (UTC) this is b.s. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.188.9.189 (talk) 19:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative Origin

Interior platform and plains might have been formed only 13,000 years ago when an extraterristrial rock fell down to Hudson Bay. The impact was so severe that it dumped fine sand sediments (White) on the interior plains, extending to Tuktoyaktok, NWT, where it is now evident that the community is suffering from Climate change and poorly picked spot for Hudson Bay to go about their business way back when it first started.==
