CANADA<br />

Discover Canada<br />

Renowned for its spectacular wilderness,<br />

abundant wildlife, cosmopolitan cities and<br />

diverse cultures, Canada stretches across<br />

six time zones and is the world's second<br />

largest country.<br />

In a destination so large, the landscape<br />

varies from the breathtaking mountain<br />

panoramas of the Canadian Rockies to the<br />

ice-covered wilderness around Churchill,<br />

and the vineyards, farmland and maple<br />

forests to the east. Culture and history is<br />

also rich throughout Canada, including<br />

historic French settlements in Quebec and<br />

indigenous communities throughout the<br />

country. In the east, there are the Maritime<br />

provinces offering fresh seafood, stunning<br />

vistas, wild coasts and fascinating traditions.<br />

Pod of orca, Vancouver Island<br />

Framed by the Pacific Ocean and the Canadian<br />

Rocky Mountains, there is no place quite like<br />

British Columbia on Canada’s west coast.<br />

The diverse landscapes include lush<br />

rainforests, towering mountain peaks,<br />

glistening glacial lakes, rugged coastlines,<br />

vibrant cities, rolling vineyards and flat<br />

prairies. Victoria on Vancouver Island is the<br />

provincial capital, but the cosmopolitan city<br />

of Vancouver is larger and more frequently<br />

visited. Whale watch from Vancouver Island,<br />

seek out grizzly bears in the Great Bear<br />

Rainforest, relax in the year-round mountain<br />

retreat of Whistler, sail a portion of the Inside<br />

Passage, sample local wines in the Okanagan<br />

Valley or stay in a wilderness lodge.<br />

Alberta lies in the heart of Western Canada<br />

and is home to many of the characteristic<br />

images of the country. Famous for the<br />

Canadian Rocky Mountains that border the<br />

province to the west, Alberta’s landscapes<br />

stretch far beyond the mountains, with the<br />

rugged, dinosaur-fossil-strewn badlands to<br />

the east, vibrant cities and more than 300<br />

provincial parks. Highlights of the province<br />

include visiting the national parks of Banff<br />

and Jasper; the world’s largest dark sky<br />

preserve; joining a glacier tour on Athabasca<br />

Glacier; seeing the turquoise water of<br />

Lake Louise; and donning a Stetson and<br />

boots for Canada’s biggest rodeo:<br />

Calgary Stampede.<br />

Lake Louise<br />
