A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.

Drumheller, Alberta. It has a fascinating landscape, full of these dirt pillar things, don’t know how to describe it. And a lot of dinosaur bones are found in that area, so the entire town is dinosaur themed. All the streets are named after dinosaurs, and they have the world’s largest model of a t-rex, which you can pay to enter lol. The whole shtick is very corny but its worth driving through at least

Quebec City is really neat, the old town in particular. Great if you like historical buildings.

Any of the towns along the Bay of Fundy. I liked Parsborough. The difference in tides is incredible. Niagara on the Lake is cool. Historic place along the Niagara River and not far from the falls. Lots of tourists though. Banff has got to be high on the list for beauty. Dawson Creek is interesting for its Gold Rush History. Levi, Qc is cool with waterfalls and Quebec City near. Cavendish P.E.I. for Anne of Green Gables fans. It's also close to views, red sand beaches, and, well, it's close to everything on the island.
