Topography Of Canada
Arctic Region
The arctic region consists of plains, lowlands, and mountains. The sedimentary rock has been pushed up by the pressure at the northeastern edge of the Canadian Shield, forming a range of fold mountains. Kettle lakes and glaciers are found in that area as well, along with plenty minerals located in the mountainous areas.
Baffin Mountains (Located in Nunavut)
Cordillera Region
The cordillera region is a diverse landscape made up of parallel mountain ranges separated by plateaus, trenches, and valleys in British Columbia and Yukon. This area which also includes dormant volcanoes, glaciers, and ice fields, is part of a chain of mountains that stretch from Alaska to Chile. The landform was formed through plate tectonics movement. Plate collision caused the earth’s crust to push together and folded volcanic rock into mountains.
Montane Cordillera
(Incorporated in the valleys of Bristish Columbia such as the Albertafoothills and Okanagan Valley)
Interior Plains region
The Interior Plains spread from the Canadian Shield to the Cordillera mountains. They formed when soil carried away by rivers from the Canadian Shield deposited at its edge. Sedimentary rock was then formed, which became areas of flat land, rolling hills, and river valleys. Overtime, remains of plants and animals were pressed between sedimentary layers, which formed deposits of fossil fuels (oil, gas) and evaporites (potash).

Good choice if images and clear descriptions but you highlighted the wrong terms. Remember that topography is the shape of the land and you want to know the different terms you can use to describe the landscape (rolling hills, valleys, plateaus, bluffs, etc.).
