What to Know About Region 3
Key Facts
Region 3 is one of the administrative regions within Canada's Northwest Territories, representing a significant territorial division in this northern Canadian territory. Located in the central portion of the Northwest Territories, Region 3 encompasses a vast area characterized by its remote northern landscape, situated between the Mackenzie Mountains to the west and the barren lands to the east. This region covers approximately 336,000 square kilometers of Canada's northern wilderness, making it larger than many countries, yet it supports a relatively small population of around 8,000 residents who are distributed across several communities. The region is administratively divided into multiple communities and settlement areas, including notable centers such as Norman Wells, Fort Good Hope, and Tulita, each serving as important hubs for the surrounding areas. Region 3's geography features the mighty Mackenzie River system, which serves as a vital transportation corridor and ecological lifeline through this northern landscape. The region's economy is primarily based on resource extraction, traditional Indigenous activities, and government services, with significant oil and gas development in areas like the Norman Wells oil fields. As part of the Northwest Territories' regional governance structure, Region 3 plays a crucial role in local administration and service delivery across this expansive northern territory.
