... Nature, beautiful nature is everywhere, in all its
glory. There are more than 150 species of trees in Canada's
forests, but also lakes, rivers and waterfalls. Canada
presented a real challenge for the pioneers and trappers
from the Rocky Mountains to the West to the banks of
the St. Lawrence river.
What to see...
Quebec in the winter, a ride through the snow in a dog
sled, snow-shoeing, how Canadians live with the cold
and snow.
The cities of Montreal and Quebec, shopping.
The Atlantic coast, Fundy Bay and the whales, terns,
and mackerel at the mouth of the St. Lawrence.
Niagara Falls in Ontario
The northwest territories for the more adventurous and
its the immensity of its wilderness.
