It was less then 5 min when I came in out of nowhere thinking I was having a stroke (turned of it was a panic attack.. let me tell you, nothing fun there), I had some tests at the pharmacy min ago, my heartbeat and pressure were really high. I also went in ER with a friend many times, when she was in a really hard spot (swallowed pills) and needed tubes in her throat it was seconds before she was treated. When she broke her arm because she was hammered, it took hours. When she opened her arms in her bath she was treated. She now is better, but I often think that if she had to pay for her many suicide attempts, she would not have missed. She is now well going out of a secluded treatment that lasted months. You do get treated here, but you can wait a long time.

I live on the Island Long beach is on.. there are sooo many more beaches to see then that one here, this island is big. Spend an entire vacation exploring here. You won't regret it. Rathtrevor Beach is another favorite. Warm shallow sandy beach. Perfect for people with kids or new to the ocean. Just one bit of advice. If you go there, the tide goes way out. Do not bring all of your stuff to the waters edge if out. The tide comes in so fast. It is shallow.. for like half a mile but that means water rushes in fast. Leave towels near the shoreline. Save you the panicked rush trying to get it to safety I see tourists do every year.

In Canada we separate our recycling, compost, and garbage. We have 3 different bins to cut down on waste. If you visit Canada, don’t be surprised if someone you don’t know offers to buy you a drink. They just want you to feel welcomed. Our Cell phone bills are some of highest in the world. Don’t know why? We are spoiled foodies, especially in the cities. It is pretty common to see Japanese, Italian, Korean, French, Canadian, Indian, Thai, Chinese, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, Irish, American Mexican and many more authentic ethnic cuisines. Don’t take an Uber from Toronto to Niagara Falls, drive or get on a casino bus, they take people there all the time. The bus drops you off at the casino in Niagara Falls. Much cheaper. Canada is a huge country, so don’t think you’re going to British Colombia, Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland if you’re coming for one week! Pick a province or two that are next to each other and stay for longer than a week.

[@knightamongknaves]

In Toronto, we have "The Beaches" in eastern Toronto neighbourhood along Lake Ontario. That first brown animal @7:39 moment in video, that was in a lake, was a young moose (may have been female) as the were no antlers seen atop the head.

Interesting fact: early Quebec and Maritime provinces were settled by French immigrants, named their land Acadia. Then the Brits came, evicted them, and many Acadians migrated to the French territory of Louisiana, where over time, "Acadian" was pronounced "Cajun", where today the culture, cuisine and music survive in their descendants.

[@johnp5990]

It depends on the weather / temperature, but where I live in Ontario, the leaves changing colours lasts about a month and a half. Moose are huge and very muscular. Hitting a moose is similar to having a wrecking ball smash through your car.

[@forksandspoons7272]

Long beach is on the west coast of Vancouver island. The island itself acts as a breakwater and stops the worst of the weather and waves coming from the pacific. The patch of water between the island and the mainland is called the Salish sea. It has lots of smaller islands as well as inlets on both sides. If I was planning the ideal summer vacation. I'd explore the Salish sea via sailboat. Sail for a day, anchor in some tiny island harbor for a day and sail the next.

Canada is truly progressive as a nation. Gay marriage has been a thing since 2004. Weed has been legal to grow (4 plants per household) since 2018 but they decriminalized growing weed back in 2015 or 2016. So Canadians tend to trade different strains amongst each other to get something different. Universal healthcare which i wouldn't trade for the life of me. Plus I get to float down rivers or fish many lakes when I'm not working for a good wage

Canada has the longest coastline of any country( even Australia) as we're surrounded by 3 oceans( Pacific,Atlantic and Arctic ) and thousands of islands ( many are the ones to the north in the Arctic , all the way up to Greenland - making up half of the country).

On the east coast of Canada, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, you are never far from a beach. If you've seen the videos of how Canadians helped the people whose planes had to land in Canada on 9/11 you'll see most Atlantic Canadians are super friendly, and some would give you the shirt off of their backs. I live in the largest city in Atlantic Canada, and although we helped many stranded passengers, we had more resources than the small community of Gander, Nfld. Check that one out. It sounds like Atlantic Canadians are similar in their friendliness to many people in the Southern States of the USA.

[@cdnrednek1027]

60 miles north of Winnipeg is a place called Grand Beach, the sand is so fine that Miami Florida tried buying the sand back in the 1980s, to spread on Miamis beaches. If you hit a moose in a car or hlf ton truck, you have a 10% chance of survival. They weigh up to 2000 lbs for an adult male, tall with long legs, when you hit tham you take out the legs and the body comes right thru your windshield.

Somewhere that is not often mentioned is The Tunnels of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. There are 2 different tours of this maze of tunnels under the city's downtown area. One is based around the legend that it was used during prohibition to move bootleg alcohol, rumor has it that this network of Tunnels has ties to AL Capone himself. The other tour is of the Tunnels that were used by Chinese immigrants to get around to the various businesses to work.

Many areas of Canada are having air quality warnings, people being being told to stay inside, change hepa filters frequently etc because of the on-going forest fires. The leaves on the trees tend to start changing colour usually around the end of Sept (depends on the weather) and peak at the middle of Oct. Sometimes they last until the end of Oct. Some things that might interest you are that you can take a fantastic train ride through the rockie mountains eg. The Rockie Mountaineer. Toronto has a downtown underground city where you can go to theatre, hotels, stores, restaurants, transportation etc without going outside. Some apartment buildings even access this pathway. Toronto also has a great Science Centre and the Toronto Islands. You take a ferrry ride from downtown Toronto to 3 of the 10+ islands to swim, kayak, picnic, cycle etc. There are beaches, restaurants, a small amusement park for the kids, a sailing club etc. On one of these 3 islands there is a carless neighbourhood and it is next to impossible to purchase a home there. There is a waiting list of potential home owners. Vancouver has Stanely Park (1,001 acres in size). Edmonton has one of the largest shopping malls in the world. In addition to stores it has a hotel, skating rink, waterpark, mini golf, theatre, restaurants, marine life, birds etc etc etc. In British Columbia and Newfoundland you can go whale watching. Not sure what types of things you are interested in but these are a few. There are also lots of festivals throughout the year. I can't remember if you have reacted to any Must Do Canada videos with Matt and Karla but they do a fabulous job of showcasing Canada and things to do.

Moose are crazy big, they are also incredibly aggressive. Do not approach one. I live in Northern Ontario, I have had to yell at tourists not familiar with moose to get back in their car when they stopped on the side of the road to take a picture, they will charge, especially if there are babies around. Also I was taught to brake if I see a deer on the road, but if it's a moose to either drive in the ditch if needed or if I can't avoid collision to speed up to raise the car as much as I can.

The Fall change of colours lasts for about 6 weeks from the first changes of colour to the trees completely dropping their leaves. It all depends on the type of trees you have. Some drop quicker than the others - like Oak.

We have signs all over the place saying "moose, next 40km" etc. They're really dangerous.

We have moose, that live in our yard. Usually 2 or three. A mom who brings her young, or she give birth sometimes here too. The yearling like to watch our kids walk to the bus in the morning. They do not seem to mind us as we do not go near or bother them, but they really do not like the FeEx guy and chase him from the yard nearly every time he comes. This is why we call them our gaurd moose as they do not like strangers. When my sister visits them mom moose just stares at her and walk behind her car as she leave, as if say " just move along please". When it snows or rains hard, they move on to our deck, that is covered. They do not mind out dogs, even when they are sniffing about, but they keep the coyotes away quite aggressively. Which i think is great as i have chihuahuas. In short. Moose are very dangerous, and one should never mess with them. But they are also the best neighbours i have every had.😊

The trees in my area during the fall, turn many different colors, red gold, yellow, orange.

Thank you I love my country

[@flyingbeaver57]

I've seen several of these videos, and so many of them mention the same things, and things that are only found in one place, or whatever. I grew up in west-central Alberta (Jordan Peterson country, lol) and my dad was an outfitter, guide and bush pilot. We spent a lot of time in what most people would call "wilderness" and I suppose there's some truth to that. But we had good friends, and we learned about things like respect for the wildlife (Yes, bears WILL kill you and eat you - sometimes!) but the fact that's rarely mentioned in any of these is simply the distances. The distance to get from point A to point B is often a very long way, and often there's not a lot of human presence along the way. It depends to some extent on what part of the country you're in, but it's certainly true in much of the country. Distances are long, and travel takes long periods and can be expensive. And winter - they never mention winter. When I was a kid, there was an area in central Alberta where the temperature never went above -40 (same either scale) for about 7 weeks. That's unusual, but the winters are long and hard, and people govern their lives and their activities accordingly. That's not to say everybody huddles up - just the opposite in most places. But in mid-winter when you're planning outdoor activities, you always have one ear open for the weather forecast, and one eye on the sky. It's beautiful country, and I was very fortunate as far as the people I knew when growing up. But that life isn't for everyone.

Thank you Demouchets fam for the great videos. About the moose. Yes indeed, they can get real big. But you don't get the sense of how big they really are until one is snorting down on your face as you look up at him from your back in the snow. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fn_JlqekityCi9E They don't like humans but they don't hate humans either. And they don't eat humans. It boils down to this... when a moose says "I'm going somewhere and you are in my way"... then get the hell out of the way because they mean it. They will love and respect you for just effing off when they tell you to. If you refuse to step aside when a moose tells you to, he might just kill you on the spot. It's all about respect . Human arrogance is the killer. Give the big beautiful beasts their space and recognize that IT IS THEIR SPACE. It's that simple.

[@K1ddkanuck]

Alright, some interesting but not necessarily widely known facts re/ Canada... 1) Montreal is the largest French speaking city in the world after Paris, France. 2) Toronto isn't just the largest city in Canada, it is the 4th largest city in North America after Mexico City, New York and Los Angeles, in that order. It's also the most ethnically diverse city on the planet, and one can literally travel the entire world in a day just by visiting the many, many distinct cultural neighbourhoods across the Greater Toronto Area. 3) About an hour and a half to the west of Toronto is straight up Mennonite country- like the Amish in Pennsylvania. Go far enough into the country, and you will literally see horses and buggies instead of cars, and people in old timey clothing like they walked out of the 19th century. 4) While Canada is stereo-typically known for its maple syrup, that stereotype is actually true. We produce about 80% of the entire world's supply, and in the winter often pour it on snow and wrap it up on a popsicle stick as a treat. 5) Canada was the site of some of the most heated and terrible battles in North American history between the 1600s and 1800s. Between the French and British Empires, the First Nations Peoples, and the United States of America itself. In fact, the War of 1812 saw Canadians (who were then simply British subjects as Canada legally didn't exist yet) burn down the White House in retaliation for an attack on the garrison at Fort York (modern day Toronto). 6) Canada didn't gain full constitutional independence until 1982 under the Constitution Act. We were still a Dominion (a form of colony) of the British Empire from 1867 until 1982 when the law was passed by the British and Canadian parliaments. 7) While in the US there is sort of a narrative about Native peoples just becoming extinct, in Canada, First Nations cultures are very much alive and an important part of Canadian identity. This relationship is still fraught with multiple layers of discrimination, socioeconomic inequality and a history of outright genocide, but this history is slowly but surely being brought into the light of public discourse. Attempts at reconciliation and honouring the treaties signed by our ancestors are ongoing (and before someone puts me on blast, I am a first nations person). The relationship is still rocky and painful, but believe me, we have not disappeared into the wood work and are fighting for representation and sovereignty every step of the way. 8) Another ongoing narrative in world history is that WWII was basically won by the US and the British. Canada was one of the most important forces fighting in WWII, we had our own beach (Juno) at Normandy, spearheaded the invasion of Italy, and pretty much liberated the Netherlands by ourselves. It's history that deserves to be remembered, even though we are largely left out of Hollywood blockbusters and common knowledge, despite the massive sacrifice of Canadians throughout the war. The same can be said for WWI, which was part of what earned Canada its independence. We have never lost a war, and throughout history have been regarded as some of the most effective fighting forces in the world.

[@SpiroFleecy]

Canada is a great country but the video tended to gloss over some of the problems. Housing in Toronto and Vancouver is extremely expensive; much more than in the United States. Canada is currently facing a housing crisis. Ownership or renting have become increasingly burdensome. Taxes are significantly higher. I am OK with that since these taxes help fund the healthcare system, but the cost of living has become more difficult to manage in recent years. Multiculturalism, though a desirable feature, has caused some friction recently. The more significant cleavages include the Sikh/Hindu cleavage which has placed Canada in the middle of the Sikh separatist movement, not to mention the Arab/Jewish friction that has risen as a result of the war in Gaza. Parts of the vaunted healthcare system are in trouble. There is a shortage of general practitioners and wait times at emergency facilities and hospitals are not acceptable. Once you get through the door, however, the quality of care is generally exceptional and world class but the wait times are unacceptable. However, I would never want to abandon the system. It requires reform and perhaps a mix of private services to augment the public system. I am still happy to be Canadian and proud to live here. However, I think it’s important to present a more balanced picture!

I’m Canadian, definitely not the best country in world, it’s going downhill fast here

Yeah I’m guessing you have your flags plastered on your vehicle and go protest nothing every week too.

Canada is STILL one of the Best countries ( we're quite humble and won't often claim THE BEST! as that's rather arrogant). Sure we have lots of challenges, as the whole world is,now. Name another country that's better and I'll consider it. We don't need to "Make ***** Great Again!" - we STILL are,always was ! :)

People have died hitting a moose with their cars because when the hit the moose, the car actually only hits the legs and then the body falls onto the car crushing the people because the moose belly is higher than a car.

That's terrifying 😢

Best thing about Canada...it's not the US. Also Canada has more lakes than the rest of the world combined.
