Canada

Meet the igloo builders of Baffin Island, the "hot dog" skiers of Banff and the logging competitors of Sooke, British Columbia. Join Quebec Winter Carnival canoeists who scramble, slip, slide and paddle their crafts to victory on the icy St. Lawrence River. Dance with young Scots at Cape Breton's Festival of the Tartans. Rekindle the spirit of the Old West with buffalo riding, wild cow milking and thundering chuck wagon races of Alberta's Calgary Stampede. Experience Canada's diversity and enduring splendor from the changing of the guard on Ottawa's Parliament Hill to the technological amusements of Ontario's science Center.
