Explanation:

In grammar, capitalization refers to writing the first letter in a word in uppercase letters and the rest of the letters in lowercase. Capitalization follows strict grammatic rules that determine in which cases words should be capitalized, this includes always capitalizing the first word in a text or after a period; capitalize proper noun and other words that are part of them including countries, days of the week and months, holidays, organizations, natural landmarks and streets; capitalize titles and capitalize the first word in quotations.

Considering this, in the case of the text presented the word "Canada" should be capitalized because this is a proper noun which means this name is used to name a specific country. Additionally, the word "park" should be also capitalized as this word is part of the proper noun "Bartholomew Park", this means even though "park" is not a proper noun and in most cases should not be capitalized when it is part of a proper noun capitalization is necessary an therefor in "Bartholomew Park" should be capitalized as this the name of an individual place or natural landmark. Thus, the words in the paragraph that should be capitalized are "Canada; Park" because they are part of proper nouns.

The two words in the paragraph that should be capitalized are "canada" and "park".

Explanation: The basic capitalization rule states that the first letters of proper nouns are capitalized; therefore, the "c" in the word "Canada", a proper noun that makes reference to a geographic location, should be capitalized. The rules for capitalization also indicate that common nouns are not capitalized. In that way, as "south", "winter" "geese", "home", "picnic" and "seasons" are used as common nouns in this sentence, they should not be capitalized. Moreover, although "park" is generally a common noun, in this sentence it is used together with the word "Bartholomew" to refer to a famous place (Bartholomew Park); therefore, "Park" is used as a proper noun and the "p" should be capitalized.
