The Land of Canada is solely owned by Queen Elizabeth 2nd who is also the head of State. Only 9.7% of the total land is privately owned (Tribal land trusts) while the rest is Crown land. The land is administered on behalf of the Crown by various agencies or departments of the Government of Canada. The Canadian act has no provision for any Canadian to own physical land in Canada. Canadians can only own interests in a trust. A land Title gives permission to the occupant for use of land (not ownership), contingent on payment of property taxes to the Crown.
