Canada videos across internet and media underline the natural beauties of Canada, as well as its cultural mosaic.  For all touristic destinations of Canada, there are plenty of tourism videos. We selected some of them.

Canada is a very large country and as the northernmost point of North America, it has many natural reserves. As a result of those natural reserves Canada is a beautiful choice for photography. I chose some scenic pictures from different part of the country.

The first picture is by Ujjwal Kumar, published in Wikipedia Community under public domain. The picture is from the Horseshoe Falls

The second image I selected is from the historic city in Quebec.

The third image I selected is from 1949. The image was taken from the subway-construction of Toronto. Today, the subways and underground cities are important parts of Canadian life.

The following pictures I choice are from old and new Montreal. The first is the new Downtown Montreal,

and the second image is from the begining of the century, 1910:

As the second largest country in the world, Canada has large and untouched natural reserves. With its unique culture and wealthy cities, the country is a great tourism destination.   The country is the northernmost point in the North America so winter tourism is very active across the country. The country uses 6 different time zones and has a connection to two oceans.  Tourism activities gather mostly in the southern locations of the country because most of the population is within the first 100 km after passing the United States border.

New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia are Atlantic provinces of the country. Halifax is the main airport of the Atlantic provinces for the tourists.  The tourism activities we offer may differ from seeing the historical places in Halifax Citadel to visiting coal mine under ocean floor (very serious) in Sydney, Nova Scotia.

Quebec is the largest province in Canada and has the second highest population with large cities like Montreal or Quebec City. Montreal is an hour away from New York and not more than 6 hours flight from Europe.  The places to see may differ from Provincial Parks to Montmorency Falls.  The province has many touristic activites like Montreal International Jazz Festival or Just For Laughs Festival.

Ontario is the largest province by population. Important cities like Toronto and Ottawa are important tourism destinations. Hiking Sleeping Giant, visiting Old Growth Forest, camping in Bruce Peninsula National Park or riding in South Simcoe may be perfect travel activities.

British Columbia is one of the provinces of Canada. Vancouver is the heart of the province and the most active touristic destinaton. The things you can do in British Colombia are visiting International Buddhist Temple,  Goho or Glacier National Parks. The things you do include skiing or winter surfing.

Northwest Territories, Nunavut or Yukon are in the northernmost point of Canada and are not visited frequently.  These places include untouched natural reserves (but may be dangerous to visit alone.)
