Canada is a country in North America. Its ten provinces and three territories extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean, covering 9.98 million square kilometres, making it the world’s second-largest country by total area.
Canada is fortunate to have some unique cities spread across its vast land. Winnipeg is known for its affordability; Calgary is popular because it’s the closest major hub to Banff National Park; Ottawa is home to fascinating museums and the Rideau Canal, and Yellowknife is the capital to visit to see the Northern Lights.
Trying different foods is one of the best parts of visiting a new country. It’s mandatory to try Canada’s national dish, poutine, which consists of fries topped with gravy and cheese curds. For sweet treats, check out Nanaimo bars in British Columbia and butter tarts in Ontario. Montreal has two delicacies: Montreal-style bagels and Montreal smoked meats. Food is no doubt a good reason to visit Canada.
