Travelers to Canada can choose Newfoundland’s rocky shores and quaint villages in the east, Vancouver’s skyscrapers and parks in the west, or the prairies and charming French-speaking cities in central Canada. Visitors can head to the Yukon and Northwest Territories for a glimpse of the Northern Lights, look for challenging ski slopes, or spot wildlife including bears, caribou, seals, and whales. Cities like Toronto, Montreal, Victoria, and Edmonton offer excellent dining, sightseeing, history, and culture.
