I realize it’s a little late in the season to feature a video of Montreal showing how beautiful it is in the winter, especially given that now’s the time to start planning a summer getaway to the city — a season when the city really comes alive — but this [...]

Jon Wick — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 16:00:02 +0000

“Inspiring Vistas” really couldn’t be a more loaded theme for our summer photography contest, and the submissions were truly everything you would imagine. More than an Indonesian volcano, a view of Hawaii from the air, or the longing of young cowboys at a rodeo, it is the colors of Canada’s [...]

How Candice Got Her Groove Back In Nova Scotia

I lost my job two days before my birthday, in July. I mourned while floating around in five inches of water in a Disney princess inflatable pool, fueled by beer and self-pity. On a whim I bought a flight to Halifax to crash with my friend for a few weeks. [...]

Montréal: Have Your Pig’s Foot And Eat It, Too

Brit Weaver — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 21:42:19 +0000

Growing up in the Ottawa Valley was not especially interesting. It was not as adventurous as Toronto. It was not laid back like Vancouver. It was, however, an hour or so from Montréal, the city that boasts bagels, poutine and dépanneurs with beer-stocked fridges. Being young, penniless and car-free, I [...]

More Than Poutine: A Journey To Discover What It Means To Eat “Canadian”

Brit Weaver — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 12:00:03 +0000

Brit Weaver — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 18:00:30 +0000

Apparently, summer is the season of summits. This year, Toronto is hosting the G20 — with much ado about something — and the Muskoka region of Ontario is hosting this year’s G8, with guest appearances from celebrity politicians. Well, for the most part — Muskokies just want to know about [...]

Montréal Is Not So Transparent

Brit Weaver — Fri, 28 May 2010 12:00:04 +0000

It was a friend’s birthday weekend. We booked time off work, postponed the completion of our papers, and road-tripped to Quebec’s biggest city, Montreal. Amazingly, I had never been. By the end of the trip, all I wanted was to prolong our stay for just a few more days (perhaps [...]
