North America has a lot of lakes that are pretty great, including the Great Salt lake, the Great Slave Lake, and the Great Bear Lake. But North America’s greatest lakes are the North American Great Lakes, often just called the Great Lakes if you’re confident you won’t confuse them with the African Great Lakes. The Great Lakes with the greatest area are Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. But these aren’t the only significant lakes in the Great Lakes watershed, the area of land that drains into the major Great Lakes, and those additional lakes are also pretty great. Let’s Explore!

CORRECTIONS:
Nipigon is pronounced more like "Nipigin" or "Nipigen" (/ˈnɪpɪɡən/ for all you IPA fans)
"Portage" rhymes with "frontage", not "massage" (although some Canadians have mentioned they pronounce it the way I do in the video)
The lake next to Lake Nipissing is "Trout Lake", not "Lake Trout" which is a type of fish
The RV manufacturer Winnebago Industries is named after Winnebago County, Iowa, not Lake Winnebago. Both names are related to the term "Winnebago" used to refer to the Ho-Chunk tribe.
The map showing Northern vs Southern Ontario isn't completely accurate, as some districts south of the French River are considered part of Northern Ontario as well.
