Canada is seen as one of the most progressive, diverse, and multicultural countries in the world, with scenic landscapes as diverse as the people who live here. Canada's celebration of other cultures world-wide along with its own unique identity makes Canada a must in terms of countries you need to visit.
For those that have never visited Canada, Canadian culture is as diverse as the people who live here. You can visit the Canadian Prairies for The Calgary Stampede, an annual rodeo, festival, and exhibition that lasts ten days, or visit some of our many indigenous communities for a taste of authentic indigenous food, music, and art, or even watch a hockey game. The beauty is, these are just three examples of vastly different, yet uniquely Canadian experiences.
