Canada 2017 is the place to be. Lonely Planet selected Canada as the top destination for 2017 so if you’ve never been this is when you should visit. There will be celebrations everywhere all year round. The biggest will take place in Ottawa, the capital, during Canada Day weekend, June 30 to July 2nd. However, if you don’t already have accommodations choose another place for Canada Day because Ottawa is sold out.
Toronto is always fun, especially from May to October. Too many things to do and see to list here, but do come back to this blog every now and then to get the scoop.
