Answer:

There's only one statement that is totally false:

Canada's three territories border the pacific ocean

The others are true, are partially true:

each province has its own government

territories are administered by Canada's national government

Canada's largest cities are located in provinces and not territories

Step-by-step explanation:

each province has its own government

True, each province has its own government, elected by the people of that province.

territories are administered by Canada's national government

Yes and No... the powers over the territories belong to the federal government, but the government delegates powers to the territory's legislature for general administration. Territories have no sovereignty, unlike the provinces.

Canada's three territories border the pacific ocean

NO, none of the territories touch the Pacific Ocean, they all border the Arctic Ocean.

Canada's largest cities are located in provinces and not territories

True. Because the provinces have much more population than the territories.
