To describe Canada as a melting pot doesn't begin to do justice to the second largest country in the world. With a substantial aboriginal population, centuries of immigrants arriving from around the world and bilingual provinces, Canada offers a little bit of everything.
The country has taken great care to expand and develop while protecting the natural beauty that makes Canada one of the most spectacular places to visit. With stunning wildlife like polar bears, bald eagles, and endangered owls, to say nothing of the aurora borealis, Niagara Falls and the Rockies or modern metropolises, Canada will take your breath away. The country is divided into ten provinces and three territories, each of which have their own highlights, from the whale migration on display in British Columbia to the CN Tower in Ontario to Green Gables in Prince Edward Island. Be sure to devote enough time to each to truly experience what makes it special.

Tablelands, Gros Morne National Park
One step on the Tablelands, a barren mound of rust-coloured rocks thrown up from the earth's mantle half a billion years ago, and you're literally standing on the centre of the earth. Not a bad place to forget about modern life. To hike in the most easterly point in North America, call Maggie at 1-800-563-6353 or visit NewfoundlandLabrador.com/hiking
