This was a great video that showed so many varied and beautiful places from around Canada from the natural beauty of places like Banff National Park and Niagara Falls and the great cities like Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, Montreal and more.
Subtitles are available in French (and English)

[@mertsalihcan]

Have you visited any of these places? What is your favourite place to visit in Canada?

[@jgjohnny7964]

Vancouver, BC, is my second (maybe 3rd close battle with Banff) favourite place in Canada after Québec, but it's one of the most expensive places to live in the world, sadly !

[@gimenovax1]

`ve been to Banff many times, mostly in the winter to ski. Nothing better than standing on the very top of a mountain getting ready to make the plunge

[@laurag.2148]

I live in Vancouver now and was born on the east coast. I have lived in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Montreal, Manitoba where I saw the Northern Lights, visited Lake Louise and Banff. I lived in Scotland and England for 4 years. My husband was a Scot from the Glasgow area. I love Canada. Because Canada is massive I would visit it in chunks. May I suggest you fly to Vancouver and visit for a week then take the Rocky Mountaineer train from Vancouver to Calgary, Alberta to get the full effect of the Rockies. There is a direct flight from Glasgow to Vancouver.

[@timithius]

Greetings from Montreal! I'm a little hurt that the video didn't include us. I'm a little biased, but I think that Montreal is Canada's best city. 🙂 You could devote a whole episode to it. I haven't been to Golden, or Jasper. But everywhere else. In B.C., my favorite place to visit is Vancouver Island. I encourage you to visit Canada!

[@patoberlein8419]

I live in Niagara Falls, the rafters were in the Niagara river, going to the rapids. The entire Niagara region is filled with parks, bike trails and a 250 mile long trail along the escarpment of Lake Ontario. Toronto is two hours away. I’ve been across Canada and yes it really is that amazing. They didn’t mention the desert 🌵

[@kerrytoby7041]

I am 66 now. Born in and living in a suburb of Vancouver BC. Canada. I have seen some of this shown. I will likely not even see all of the places shown. Not to mention have the years and resources it would take to experience Canada fully. That is also why , when I hear of tourists seeing Canada I am joyfully glad for them and somewhat envious at the same time. The country is just so damn big!

[@pollyeyes8318]

Things to add to the list: Drumheller for badlands, Grasslands National Park for the prairies, Churchill for the bears and belugas and Dawson city for some Klondike fun. Truly a beautiful country! ❤

[@larrynelson4909]

You forgot Cypress Hills in southern Sask the only place in north America untouched by glaciers and there's no mention of Lake Louise that place is truly breath taking

[@sheldondyck8631]

Grasslands is a designated dark zone. No lights in the park whatsoever. It’s pitch black at night and you can see the night sky there like nowhere else.

[@Romzylicious]

Man, you really are intuitive - you are 100% right that the east coast is totally different than the rest of the country - from the people, pace, scenery, life.....God I'm proud to be Canadian. Your happiness has me in tears. Come visit us!

I agree. I have watched at least a half dozen of Mert's reactions now and I immediately noticed that he is always asking the right questions. Very intuitive indeed. He is very insightful to immediately understand why those questions might be asked.

[@tatianamakowsky8149]

I live in Alberta and I can confirm that Banff and Jasper are places we frequent often. We spend most of our weekends in the summer hiking and camping in those areas, and in the winter you can still hike and go skiing. It’s a highlight of living in this province! Always breathtaking and provides a great getaway from the city.

[@lisamoanaSoprano]

I am from AB too, and can confirm. Banff, Jasper, and Waterton National Parks are beautiful. Lake Louise is the most beautiful place I have been. I understand Lake Moraine is as beautiful.

[@Refertech101]

I do feral forest as I don't go in the bush with out my rifle

[@sewitfits7393]

I am a Canadian who has traveled a fair bit. Banff and the Rocky Mountains in general are breathe taking. The lakes change colours throughout the year because of the mineral deposits from the spring runoff. Personally, I enjoy going to the natural hot springs in the winter. Watching the snow fall as you relax in the warm waters in amazing.

[@Asmazing]

The one thing to note is that it often costs more to travel within the country than travelling abroad for vacation. I've looked at prices for a vacation in Vancouver from Quebec and it costed more than going in the Caribbeans or Florida. That's the main reason I didn't get to see all of my own country yet

[@dereko4471]

I used to fly to Labrador once a year from Windsor Ontario. For the same price I could of went to Jamaica and back 4 times.

[@karenpower1643]

As a Canadian, I just want to say Thank You for showcasing our beautiful country. It is absolutely stunning! I was born in Newfoundland on the far east coast. It's actually the oldest city in North America and has so much history. In the video you'll see Signal Hill. It's called that because the first transatlantic message was sent from the UK to this location by Guglielmo Marconi. Look into that it's fascinating. The Newfoundland landscape is very much like Ireland. Alot of Irish settlers migrated to the island so our culture is very Irish! Our accent is VERY different from the rest of Canada and it's based on the Irish. I think you would love it there! I lived in Ottawa, Ontario for over 25 years and it's such a pretty city. It's so well taken care of because it's the capital of Canada. It's where our government is located as well. Canadian democracy is based off the British so that's why the buildings resemble those in Britian. There is so much to do both in the summer and winter seasons. If you're an outdoor person, Ottawa is the place to go. It's not as large as Toronto, but such a great city overall. I miss it!

[@calussier1]

[@aglynn4531]

Canada is a massive country, so many of us haven't had a chance to visit every part of it, but 100% of these images are still extremely familiar to me. We see them in our calendars, our jigsaw puzzles, and our friends' Facebook pages. I almost take some of these places for granted, but I can verify that of all the places I HAVE been to, they really do look like this. These photos are pretty representative of what they look like in person (on a sunny day, at least).

[@sarahsfavfan]

I agree, I live in Alberta, been all over the country but still haven't seen half of what it has to offer. I also feel as though this video was an eye opener in a way for me as I just took my country for granted for it's beauty but never thought of it from another's perspective. I do love it here and I am so very proud to be a Canadian!

[@Romzylicious]

you are incredibly astute and observant - Ottawa IS basically half french, half english, with ottawa and Montreal only being a couple hours car ride from each other. I've always been grateful to be Canadian and to have the good fortune to be born and raised here and it's so awesome to see someone else getting a good view at our wonderful country. I've been from one end to the other by car and it's something even most canadians don't get to see. It's beautiful and there really is something for everyone here.

[@cherrypickerguitars]

I’m so blessed to live here. I’m the son of British immigrants and came here at two yrs old in 1958. I’ve lived in Windsor, London and Toronto Ontario, Montreal, Halifax, Calgary and Vancouver. I now live in the interior of BC. Two hours from Golden, 5 hrs from Banff/Jasper. I hate to admit it, but my mountain scenery has become “normal” to me. As I said, I’m blessed. I live in the most beautiful part of-the most beautiful province of the most beautiful country! What more can one want in life? Peace

[@tube396]

I was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1951. My family and I immigrated to Vancouver, BC in 1957 when I was 5 years old. I'm now 71 years old and have lived here ever since. Over the years I thanked my parents many times for making the sacrifice by leaving their families and loved ones and bringing my sister, my 3 brothers and myself to a new and promising life in Canada. Even though my heart will always belong to Ireland, us kids would never of had the life back there that we were so fortunate to have growing up in such a wonderful country as Canada. Mert, if you get the chance to come here you won't be disappointed wherever you go. I've been to all the provinces and territories over the years and have loved been in all of them.

I was born and raised in Canada, and each day I’m still in awe that I live in a country that’s so beautiful. Banff is so surreal that you’re almost convinced the photos of it have been photoshopped, but the pictures don’t do it justice at all. Canada is definitely a country worth visiting for its beauty and culture.

[@LindaDaoust54]

I am a proud French Canadian and I LOVE my country. I had the chance to visit all of it and have seen all of these beautiful places. But there is so much more than simply those 10 places to visit.

I am so enjoying visiting my country through your eyes. I was happy to see Cape Breton mentioned here, but they didn't mention its Scottish roots! Kitchen parties, highland dancing, world class fiddlers, just the friendly personalities. And the Acadian Forteresse Louisbourg. It's a wonderful place and you shouldn't miss it if you come to Canada. You're also correct about the size of the country. It's difficult, and expensive, to visit everything. I wish we had a decent train in Canada. Passenger trains share the rails with cargo trains, and can be made to wait for hours at the side of the track waiting for the cargos to pass. Still my favourite mode of travel though! I'm in Ontario of Acadian heritage, so I know the East Coast and Quebec pretty well. My goal is to go west by train.

[@olivemd]

Another Caper here. I’ve lived and visited all over Canada. Now, living in BC. I’ve been to all the places in this film. I really want to explore Quebec City again. We only spent one or two days there. Not enough time!

Canadian here! Banff is just shy of an hour drive from where I live. It is beautiful and I am very lucky to live where I do. Thank you for showing the place I live! If you come to visit, you will meet some of the nicest people ever! ❤

[@Darrbc]

How cool to see my country through someone else's eyes. I forget from time to time just how incredibly lucky we are to live here. Like everywhere else we have social issues, so we're certainly not perfect, but we also have everything you saw in the video too. Most of my life has been lived between Alberta and BC and those pictures aren't fake or enhanced. You'll never see all of it in a lifetime, but what a way to spend it! Thanks for this video and the reminder of how lucky I am. Made my day. 🙂

Alberta and BC have the world biggest carbon sites in the world with oil and sand . Beautiful mountains but for how long . Switzerland , Austria have the best infrastructures and mountains in the world.

[@miniciominiciominicio]

00:41 Aha! It’s the Scots who are responsible for the Canadian reputation of pronouncing about as aboot (mostly eastern Canadians only).

[@bmartin2304]

@@jeanbolduc5818 Just to put a small thing into perspective when you say the largest carbon sites in the world and nice mountains but for how long, and that the swiss and Austrians have the best infrastructure and mountains in the world. British Columbia is 23 times larger then Switzerland alone. BC's Protected Parklands total 141747.55 square km's which you could fit Switzerland in 3.5 times. Austria is only 2x Switzerland by land area. Canada is 9.985 million km² where as Switzerland and Austria Combined is like 125000 km². Making Canada 80x the size of both those countries combined. They are not even comparable when you factor in the shear scale and size of Canada. The Canadian oil sands alone are larger in land area then both those counties combined which to your point is actually kinda scary, although I can tell you if our current gov has its way there won't be any oil industry before long and we will be significantly poorer in the short term at least but perhaps that's necessary at this point, I'm not totally decided one way or the other, too complex for me to have a concrete opinion on.

[@timtwoface]

Banff National Park lives up to the hype, big time. It's also named after a small town in Scotland (Banff, Aberdeenshire).

[@mertsalihcan]

I never even considered that it would be named after the Scottish Banff. Awesome

[@bokchow]

@@mertsalihcan Southern Alberta has a lot of Scottish names - Banff, Calgary, Bow River, Glenbow, Glengary. The early Northwest Mounted Police had a lot of Scots, like Walsh and Macleod, who named several locations after the highlands of Scotland. To this day several police units have bagpipers who perform for parades and events. There is also a Calgary Highlanders military unit with Scottish insignias.

[@sarahmorrison9718]

​@@mertsalihcan British Columbia has a university named after Simon Fraser the younger (from the 1745 rising). So much of Canadian names of places are European

Being Scottish, you might like Nova Scotia ( New Scotland ) in Atlantic Canada as it was settled by Scots, and has a close copy of your Flag as its Provincial Flag. Also most people don’t realize how massively large Canada is. I just found out that my Province, New Brunswick (one of the smaller provinces ) is 3.7% larger than Ireland. That blew my mind when I learned that.

There’s also a very significant Scottish influence here in Québec, which I admit I was surprised to find out.

[@valgoodridge1810]

Although the video hit some of the most spectacular places in Canada, I am always a bit disappointed that the prairies are always missed. As a prairie girl I know that there are some very beautiful places in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The prairies present their own type of beauty. If you want to see the best northern lights, Churchill, MB is the place to be. You can see polo bears and beluga whales at the same time.

[@fraserwilson249]

@@valgoodridge1810 I'm from Toronto and spent a few months in Swift Current when I was younger and I thought the Prairies were beautiful, the flat, open landscape was like nothing I'd seen before. I found it hard to tell time because in the summer the sun would set so late in the day compared to what I was used to. I was also surprised to learn that there are indeed places there that are hilly and forested, it's not all just flat prairie.

[@TheHolyLorf]

Im from the other side of the country in Newfoundland but I had the opportunity to work in Banff for a couple month period. I would walk trails in the mornings or after work and cameras, videos, photos don’t even do it justice. It was actually kind of overwhelming at times at how beautiful it is. The combination of mountains, forests, water, sun shining through these giant fluffy clouds and castings these perfect shadows over the mountain peaks.. something else! 💯% worth the visit.

[@jinhan5129]

I have been to Jasper, and Whistler BC, it was my first time in the mountains and I was speechless. My home will always be my home but I love living in the North.

[@theirmanager5204]

I’m an Albertan, and I go to the Bow River Valley a few times a year. This is where Banff is. Without failure, if someone comes to visit me from somewhere else, no matter the time of year, we drive down toward Calgary, nip off the main highway and slink along the range roads parallel to it. This way we roll along the rugged sprawling prairie as the mountains get closer and closer before making the sharp right turn back out onto the main road into the peaks and then it’s onward into the park! I LOVE the way people glue themselves to the window with their mouths open. It makes me really proud. They don’t know where to look because you’re surrounding on every side with breathtaking views. It’s always fun to catch a wild life sighting too. Sometimes it’s just yotes or deer or antelope, and into the mountains you can see sheep and deer moose bears and my favourite, elk! Once, I had a visitor from our east coast, saw no wildlife at all, until we got into the park and as we drove past a frozen river we saw 3 wolves lounging in the snow. The first and only time I’ve seen wolves there, very rare and I’ll never forget it. Whoever you are, if you’re reading this, please come visit us, we would love to have you 😊 🏔 🦌 ❤️

Lived in BC most my life. It's very beautiful. Vancouver is a great place to live, but it's ridiculously expensive. There's a huge amount of diversity in Vancouver also, so you have such a sharing of cultures and foods and music and tradition. It's great! If you're a big nature buff, please look into Haida Gwai, I think you'll really love it.

[@maqywhaq]

I grew up in Richmond, and Vancouver gets a bit of flak from those who prefer a more engaging nightlife/entertainment industry. Vancouver offers an amazing balance of wildlife and general living, but if you prefer to be entertained by others/social activities, it can fall flat vs Toronto/Montreal. To me, the difference is do you like experiencing things of your own accord, or having them packaged for consumption. Both can be amazing, one often requires you to take the initiative to go find.

I’m a Vancouverite. Been to 9 out of 10 places on the list. You are spot on. Vancouver is a wonderful place to live if you enjoy a laidback, outdoorsy kind of life style. There are so many incredible places surrounding the city. The whole province of British Columbia is spectacular. The climate is also the mildest of all Canadian provinces. As you can imagine, all of this comes at a pretty spectacular price tag. Vancouver is easily one of the most expensive cities in the world. How expensive? Let’s just say that every single detached home owner in Vancouver is a (multi-)millionaire because of the real estate value. It’s insane. Banff National Park, in fact all seven national parks in the Canadian Rockies, is definitely a must visit for anyone coming to Canada. The scenery is exactly the same as what you see in photos and videos. You can imagine how breathtaking it is to be surrounded by it. Because of the sheer size of the country, you will rarely be surrounded by a crowd no matter where you go. It’s easy to find a little piece of heaven just for yourself if you so choose. We have been taking vacations in many beautiful places where there’s nobody in sight for days. If you love peaceful nature, you’ve got to come visit!

Mert, you fill the hearts of Canadians with joy as you revel in the beauty of our country. From sea, to sea, to sea, all ten Provinces and three Territories offer warm and welcoming people, stunning vistas of nature and a diverse panoply of cities, huge and small, that offer adventure, peace, and excitement, along with the best, freshest, most creative array of international food one can find in the world. Throughout our country, each of the four seasons will overwhelm you, as will our 2 million freshwater lakes and the 37 national parks and 10 national park reserves in Canada that represent 31 of Canada's 39 terrestrial natural regions and protect approximately 336,343 square kilometres of Canada's lands. If that weren't enough, add to that an incredible number of Provincial Parks across the country. Before you decide on a final place to settle, do yourself a favour and travel throughout Canada. You might just surprise yourself as to where you decide to call home. Cheers.

Hey there, thanks for showcasing the beauty of our country on your channel! As a proud Canadian, 🇨🇦 I just wanted to let you know that while the video captures some of the stunning scenery in Banff, it's even more breathtaking in person. And if you're looking for a truly awe-inspiring experience, you can't miss the Northern Lights in the Arctic. But it's not just our natural wonders that make Canada special. Our big cities like Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto are vibrant and diverse, with plenty of cultural experiences to enjoy. And let's not forget about the unique charm of the East coast of the Maritimes. Quebec is another province that's not to be missed, with its European-inspired architecture and culture. Anyway, thanks again for featuring our country on your channel.

Banff and Jasper National Parks in Alberta are beautiful. To really appreciate the Rocky Mountains and their ruggedness (definitely not gentle hills), drive through the parks or take the train from Calgary. You will not regret the visit. Wintertime for skiing, summertime for hiking and the wildlife, and anytime for the beautiful scenery.

Ottawa is truly a bilingual city. If you are sitting at one of the outdoor cafes you will hear both languages spoken in abundance. People easily change from one language to the other. In the summer there are lots of festivals and of course of July 1 you have to come here to enjoy the birthday celebration of our country. Thouands gather downtown to hear concers, see the changing of the guard, watch buskers and just celebrate the founding of our nation.

I’m from West Thurrock near Grays Essex, I’ve lived in Canada since 1986. I’ve never wanted to go home, Calgary is home now and it’s in my soul. I lived in Saskatoon for 10 years and as beautiful as it was in Saskatchewan I feel happier here in Calgary. Being so close to the mountains brings a sense of peace and comfort. If I need to get away from the city the mountains are a short drive away and it’s a different world.

I have worked, lived and played in Canada from coast to coast. Most of what is witnessed in this video is along Canada's Southern boarder. I have to also extend my Canadian life experience to include the North and Far North from coast to coast; and trust me, that experience can be breath taking as well. Like my memory of Ice fishing with the Metis on the Great Slave Lake in January, while the Northern Lights were crackling and whistling over head. Canada is a delightful place East to West as well as Top to Bottom... by the way, I've chosen to live in Terrace (Northwestern BC), amidst mountains, lakes, rivers and the ocean. It is a region that is steeped in Indigenous culture, an has abundance of wildlife and it's a hr. drive to the Alaskan Panhandle; actually people fly in from all over the world to get a piece of this.

There are not many European tourist that would venture north thankfully. You have to realized that for European going into the nature means they are always at an hour walk from a village or city. I made firends with some Belgian when I was in Germany and we talked alot about the nature in Canada and how great it was. So much so that the next year they called and said that they would visit in the summer and to organise a two week canoe trip. To my horror they came in with full adidas track suit and shoe. Backpack, sleeping bag and tent from WW2. I made them buy some stuff making sure they had at least hiking boot for the long portage. Turns out it was not needed because we did not make it to any portage. We spent two days to make about 20km and they were complaining the all time. The third day they refuse to move. I ended up going back alone to where we started and walked 40 km up the road to finally get a signal and arange for the charter plane that was suppose to pick us up two weeks later, to come the next day and pick us up 20 km from where we left. Quite embarassing to say the least. When I made it back to the lake shore it was late and decided to sleep there and leave early in the morning to not miss the plane at noon. When I made it back to camp, it was like I had left for weeks. All three of them were crying and screaming because they thought I had left them there. Obviously not all European are like this. But this was my experience and I would never take anybody from europe an hour away from civilization. I was young and adventurous so maybe it was a little bit my fault.

Ottawa and Gatineau (Ontario-Québec sides of the river but essentially one big city) is essentially the 50/50 mix between English and French influence and culture. For most jobs, you need to be fully bilingual.

[@scotti.6433]

The actual stats are 20% claiming French ancestry in Ottawa and that rises to 25% if adding the Quebec side of Hull/Gatineau.

[@furryhoof647]

Ottawa is more bilingual than most cities but you are way more likely to hear people speaking English. When visiting Montreal it seemed like i was almost as likely to hear English as French. My guess is Montreal is closer to 50/50. Most of us anglophones living in Ottawa can understand and speak French to some extent though, and many are fluently bilingual.... In both of these great cities you are likely to be understood speaking either language and will rarely encounter negativity based on the language you choose to speak. I've had pleasant conversations where i'm speaking English and the other person is speaking French because we both can understand each other's language better than we can speak it. Actually, many of my Chinese friends growing up would have these 2 language conversations with their parents, but with English and Cantonese/Mandarin.

Banff and Jasper are absolutely stunning! The water is that turquoise colour because of the rock dust that is produced by rock slides. I would never get tired of going to Banff and Jasper. I have bern skiing in Banff multiple times and the Northern Lights never cease to amaze! I haven't been to Vancouver but it is VERY Expensive to live there. The joke in Canada is that BC (British Columbia) stands for bring cash.

I live in Calgary, Alberta, about an hour or so away from Banff. I love flying back into Calgary and seeing the snow-capped Rocky Mountains. It’s a sight you never get tired of. We are so lucky to live here. I am originally from Surrey ( my Mum was from Alloa). We came here years ago and have lived in Montreal and St John’s Nfld. Calgary is the home of the famous Calgary Stampede every July. My sons live in the Okanagan in beautiful British Columbia. Many of us go there for vacations, it has some truly stunning wineries and that is where we get our fruit and veggies from in the summer. Vancouver is considered to be the most beautiful city in Canada. Also a ferry ride will take you to Vancouver Island where the city of Victoria is. It was named after Queen Victoria and is very British. It is also the capital of B.C. Anyhow I do hope you visit here. It’s an experience not to be missed.

[@JHMJ6]

I grew up in Calgary (a few hours drive southeast of Banff), now I live in st. John's, NL (the easternmost city in North America). I've toured a large portion of the country, especially the less well known areas like the east coast and arctic. Here's a few answers to some of your questions. Yes Banff really is that beautiful although it gets quite busy with tourism in the summer and some of the best views will require long hikes to really see. However just south of Banff is Kananaskis Provincial Park which is 80% as beautiful with 20% of the traffic. Depending on what kind of activities you are interested in, it is sometimes better to focus on the provincial park. Jasper is immediately north of Banff. Quebec City having fortified walls is extremely unique in North America. The age of walled cities was already coming to a close when the continent was settled and there weren't many cities at all back then. There are more walled cities in South and Central America though just not in the US or Canada. Most cities in Canada tend towards very modern architecture simply because they really aren't that old. Ottawa is the capital and sits on the edge of Ontario and Quebec which is why it seems to have both English and French influences. Vancouver is a good city for nature-oriented people who enjoy a modern city although it isn't really known for that as much. Vancouver is very much the Los Angeles of Canada. The cost of living is truly insane, one of the most expensive cities in the world to live in. While the proximity to nature is excellent, you either won't have the money or the free time to actually take advantage of it. It has the mildest weather in Canada and is pretty much the only major city to sit on the ocean (Halifax and St. John's do as well but aren't nearly as big, Quebec City sits on a river that leads into the ocean) Calgary is the more common choice for someone looking for a modern city with great proximity to the outdoors. Calgary and Vancouver are separated by the Rocky Mountains so the "type" of nature is very similar. Calgary has much more severe weather but has vastly more affordable cost of living and similar salaries. In terms of typical disposable income Calgary is probably the highest in Canada depending on year. Newfoundland in particular is very interesting and unique. Newfoundland is one of the oldest parts of North America, St. John's is one of the oldest cities on the continent. Newfoundland was not a part of Canada until after WW2, it was the last province to join. The culture is very distinct from the rest of the country. Newfoundland is very rural for the most part and those rural communities were isolated for hundreds of years. This lead to the development of Newfoundland English which is beyond an accent and is technically a dialect with unique vocabulary and grammatical rules similar to Irish English crossed with London English and a bit of Scottish English. The video mentioned George Street but didn't say why it's relevant, this street has more bars on a single street than any street in North America. Which is extra funny considering the city has a population of just over 100,000. If you actually want to take a trip to Canada, DO NOT underestimate the distances. Pick one or two provinces for a single trip, trying to do more will only lead to disappointment. Inter-Canadian air travel is very expensive, there are no cheap flights here like there are in Europe. Once you land, it will not be economical to fly anywhere else during your trip. Do not rely on public transport, it is almost universally useless, the country is just too big and too spread out. Rent a car. Based on your interests/tastes I think the best place to start would be a trip to Banff/Jasper based out of Calgary or Edmonton. You should be able to get a convenient flight to Calgary. From there rent a car. If you have camping gear that's the best way to travel through Banff and Jasper. You could also rent a motorhome. If you'd rather stay in hotels, be prepared for high costs inside the actual parks. You may wish to spend the days in the parks and the nights outside of them. Banff and Jasper run parallel to Calgary, Red Deer and Edmonton so you're never too far from a city to spend the night in. The other reason to base your trip from this region is access to Golden. Golden was mentioned in the video and it is actually closer to Calgary than Vancouver is. From Calgary you could easily hit all three parks in one trip by car. I'd recommend a trip of 7-14 days for this journey.

A note here: "too far" is a relative term! Here in Canada that means anywhere from a half hour to 1 1/2-2 hour one way drive, depending on the person. I've done day trips of 4 hours one way. Everything is way further apart here, so absolutely keep that in mind

[@ange1mom438]

Great advice, and I agree don’t underestimate the distances. Also depending on time of year driving through the mountains can take quite some time due to construction or road conditions. Plan ahead and do some research before your trip. It’ll make your visit more enjoyable. Drive BC is a fantastic resource if you are planning to drive through BC, the traffic cameras and the road reports are helpful and can offer up alternative routes and give you an idea of delays and detours and if that detours will add many more hours. There are many beautiful towns and campgrounds throughout the interior of BC though so a delay or detour might just be a fun option.

One thing that wasn't mentioned about our CN tower, is that when it was first opened in 1976 it was the tallest free-standing structure on earth, and it held that record for almost thirty years. Banff was named after the town of Banff in Scotland, and you mentioned a town called Tobermory in Scotland and we have one too.

Every country has its breath-taking beauty... what makes Canada special is how VARIED that landscape is. It took me 10 years, but I got to visit most of my country, inspiring me to write my 2nd symphony (each section of this large orchestral work describes one of the characteristically unique parts of Canada.) The first time I drove across the Prairie provinces (yes, days of driving, but...) I was absolutely awestruck by the grandeur and immensity of it all. Each of the Maritime provinces has a unique cultural origin which is always on display. Québec and Ontario are the land of vast endless forests and lakes. And British Columbia is simply beyond words to describe it. The last part of the country is the far north, and no other country in the world possesses anything as unique.

Newfoundland was British (not Canadian) until 1949 when it officially became the tenth province with Labrador being linked together later. Cape Breton Island is very eclectic with both strong French and UK influences. Alexander Graham Bell lived there later in life and his home was called Beinn Bhreagh (Gaelic for Beautiful Mountain). Gaelic is being taught in school in some places not just spoken at home. South of Cape Breton Highlands is Louisbourg, NS which has the French fortress of Louisbourg. Great historical places in Canada, if you like, but not as old as Scotland, but awesome places to see. The mountains in the west are very dramatic and stunning. The city of Churchill, in Northern Manitoba you can see polar bears in certain times of the year. Canada has many wonders but you are right in saying not everyone in Canada has traveled to see them all.

No Gaelic in Newfoundland. Very little Scots.

I live in Alberta, if you were to bust Banff, stay at the Banff springs hotel, it is fit for a king, literally, it is one of the few hotels that the royal family can actually attend due to the massive list of accommodations they can provide, not to mention the beauty of the surrounding buildings and park

I also live in Alberta, born and raised. True, the Banff Springs is fit for a king. But considering the way Canada is going, Alberta is now the last stronghold of sanity. And today I doubt Royalty would even dare travel to Alberta. Except I noticed that Justin the Bastard Castro visited Calgary last week and with all the truth I can muster, I am shocked that he escaped the province with his life.

Loved this video! As a Canadian, I believe this really only scratched the surface to these wonderful places. There is so much more depth that I was waiting to hear about.

The drive from Calgary to Vancouver is amazing. This video made me so proud to be from Canada 🍁

I live in quebec but i still did the 48 hours ride on car to go to banff,and photos aren't even close to the beauty this is

[@mertsalihcan]

Seems like a long journey that would definitely be worth it. Must have been a beautiful road trip.

​@@mertsalihcan you rent a car in calgary and drive up to jasper taking days and sleeping in hotels along the way. Calgary is very flat but it doesn't take long to see the mountains and honestly...my jaw dropped so often during the drive. Everytime you turn a corner..bam...breathtaking. most beautiful place. My favorite place to visit right after that is Quebec city. It's gorgeous and like a little european city. There's a lot of nature and things to do around it to

As a Canadian living in Southern Ontario have seen very little of Canada and more of other countries. Only been to Northern Ontario and alittle bit into Quebec. But yes we do have a beautiful country that we take for granted and would love to visit more but considering our size its hard to visit everything. A drive just from Peterborough Ontario to Thunderbay Ontario is 19 hours and thats not even crossing the entire province of Ontario.

I have been to Banff .. it is absolutely stunning! As beautiful as it looks in the pictures , it does not do it justice… the glacial water in the lakes is a color that cannot be described… plus there is an energy vortex in one of the lakes. Go, go, go! ❤😊

Great video!!! As a Canadian that grew up in Toronto for 56 years but now living in Winnipeg I hate to admit that I sometimes take for granted how beautiful my country is. Watching your video made me once again remember how lucky I am to live here. I also found this video great because I will be visiting Scotland and Ireland (my ancestral home) in September so I thought it was funny to watch how much you think of Canada when I know I'll be posting about how much I loved Scotland and Ireland by the end of September. Funny how that works!!!

[@aprildawson3316]

I'm Canadian. I'm from Newfoundland, but I've spent the last 16 years living in Alberta. It is as beautiful as it looks. The look on your face while watching the beauty that is Canada was priceless.

I lived there, Banff, and you must come and see the majesty for yourself. Your soul will sing with the unexplainable beauty! Banff is known as 'wedding capital of the world' for a reason.

[@jasoncarrie-annbreitkreuz4927]

Honeymooned in Banff .... Incredible scenery for real!

[@jasoncarrie-annbreitkreuz4927]

Vancouver is very beautiful but very expensive - the Maritimes are also gorgeous but much much more affordable.

As a Canadian we have milk in a 3 plastic bag put in a bigger bag

All of those places are wonderful, I've been fortunate to visit most of them. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Cape Breton; I just fell in love with that place a long time ago and I still go back to visit when I can. I hope you can come and visit Canada sometime, cheers ~
