    Here is one example which features 9 regions
    Northern Canada
    Western Canada
    Eastern Canada
    English Canada, sometimes known as the Rest of Canada (excluding Quebec) when considering topics of language
    French Canada
    Pacific Canada
    Acadia
    Quebec-Windsor Corridor
    Four Corners

    Wikipedia treats of seven:
    1 Physical geography
    1.1 Appalachian Mountains
    1.2 Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Lowlands
    1.3 Canadian Shield
    1.4 Canadian Interior Plains
    1.5 Western Cordillera
    1.6 Volcanoes
    1.7 Canadian Arctic

    I personally would not list volcanoes as a separate region.

    Oversimplifying, we could name two: the Canadian Shield, and everything else.
