Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada
Are you considering taking a road trip to all 10 provinces and three territories in Canada? What an adventure it would be! Weaving your way through the vast landscapes of our country, sampling unique delicacies along the way, and learning about diverse cultures in each stunning region—it’s no wonder that people are so drawn to the idea of this iconic excursion. But where do you start? How much time should you budget for it? Is it feasible within your available vacation days off from work or school?
Canada is a vast country, consisting of ten provinces and three territories, each with its unique geography, culture, and tourist attractions. Here are the pros and cons of each province and territory from a tourism and travel perspective:
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Ontario
Pros: Ontario is home to Canada’s most significant city, Toronto, which offers numerous cultural, historic, and entertainment attractions. The province is also home to Niagara Falls, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Canada. Additionally, Ontario is known for its picturesque cottage country, including Muskoka and the Kawarthas, which are perfect for outdoor enthusiasts.
Cons: Ontario can be crowded and expensive, particularly in Toronto and during peak tourist seasons.
Reviews:
Most people who visit will go to Ottawa and/or Toronto. Ottawa has the parliament, plenty of great museums (the war museum is a personal favorite), and is across the river from Gatineau. Toronto has the CN tower, hockey hall of fame, royal Ontario museum, etc. etc. I think finding stuff to do in those two cities is easy. Instead I’ll comment on lesser known areas:
Algonquin Park: quintessentially Canadian. Excellent canoe opportunities here. Very beautiful country.
Mattawa: A personal favorite for me when I was younger for camping and hiking. It’s a beautiful area north of Ottawa
Parry Sound: Another beautiful area. I’ve camped here a few times, and emergency landed in an aircraft here once. It’s a retirement community but it’s in a good setting.
Killarney Provincial Park: Hike the crack, it’s awesome.
Manitoulin Island: The Haweater festival every summer is great. I used to camp here all the time as a kid. It’s like a little slice of southern Ontario up north.
Love the Haweater festival! Manitoulin Island is such a beautiful place. I would recommend sailing in the area, or chartering a yacht. Many people don’t consider sailing and Canada to be synonymous, but since the Great Lakes are all connected and so large, you’re able to get quite a variety in scenery. There are a lot of beautiful harbours and hiking trails that are scattered throughout, so there’s a nice mix of civilization and solitude. The Group of Seven (famous Canadian painters) did a lot of their paintings along Georgian Bay and it’s incredible how much the scenery looks like their paintings. It’s also possible to sail to the Ocean from the Great Lakes if you’re really looking for a prolonged and adventurous trip.
Wawa, Ontario: I love the provincial and National Parks in this area of the country. Lake Superior is very beautiful. A personal favourite of mine is Old Woman Bay, slightly south of Wawa.
Ottawa
Ottawa has something to do every season. If you like skating, during the winter time you can skate along the Rideau Canal (the world’s longest outdoor skating rink). It’s very well maintained and can be quite busy on weekends, but there’s always hot chocolate to warm you up. Don’t forget beavertails too!
My favourite seasons are Spring and Summer. There are always music festivals going on and lots of different genres of music available. In May, there’s the tulip festival. This is one of my favourite times in Ottawa. There are over a million tulips in bloom and it’s incredibly beautiful to walk around and view them. There are also a lot of events that are going on around this time.
Winter in Ottawa
Ottawa in winter, pretty wicked! Winterlude, eating Beavertails whilst skating on the Canal. Very cool (literally!) I spent the majority of my time in Kingston with a friend. Kingston is a student town and is probably better if you have a friend to just hang out with. There is not much to do in Kingston, besides seeing Fort Henry and the general student-life.

Canada day in Ottawa
is incredibly busy, but I recommend it. They shut down all of downtown and there are concerts, fireworks, and lots and lots of people. There will also be a lot of drunk people.
By far, my favourite thing in Ottawa was walking downtown along the river. Take a tour of Parliament and watch the changing of the Guard. If you walk behind Parliament you get a beautiful view of Quebec. Then walk to the Ottawa locks. There are a few museums in the Ottawa area. I wouldn’t consider any of the museums or galleries to be as monumental as the Louvre or the Met. If you want Museums that focus on a Canadian perspective, then I recommend the War Museum or Museum of History (formerly the Museum of Civilization).
Ottawa has beautiful fall leaves. It’s quite nice to go hiking in the Gatineau Hills and watch the colours change.
Ottawa definitely has a small town feel. It’s not the kind of place that will amaze you with tall buildings or state of the art architecture, but I find it is a beautiful city because of the tranquility it offers. Since it is a government town, many people will be surprised that the downtown core is usually empty on weekends. You usually just have to walk closer to Parliament or near the Market (where most restaurants and clubs are) to find crowds.
I’d be happy to touch on food, other entertainment, and things to do in specific months if anyone is interested. I also have experience with living and visiting: Toronto, London, Niagara, Sailing on Georgian Bay, Kingston, and other smaller cities scattered throughout.
Autumn
As is most likely the case with many countries in the Northern Hemisphere, I truly believe that Canada is at its best in the Autumn. Nationwide, the scenery comes alive, the people seem to become more active, and the overall culture is highlighted by the beginning of the NHL season.
Of all the places I have lived in Canada, and out of all the things I have done, my absolute favourite experience has been visiting the St. Jacob’s farmer’s market near Waterloo, the largest year-round market in the country. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Southern Ontario – it’s only about 1.5 hours from Toronto.
Summer
Summer time! Flew in to Toronto and experienced five days there. The CN Tower is a must-do, despite the pricing ($70). Going to Kensington Market was pretty cool also, where I bought a Jamaican Patty from this little store that seemed to be hugely popular. Toronto was buzzing during the summer and it wasn’t as big and bad as Canadians make it out to be.
Ottawa has wicked bike paths, so I recommend getting your hands on one whilst there to explore it all. At times, Ottawa seems a bit bland, but there is enough to see to keep you busy. Parliament at night for ‘Mosaica’ is a must-do – where a light show upon Parliament and Canadian history is combined. Ribfest, a festival of Ribs…need I say more!? Canada Day in Ottawa is also A MUST! I have never seen such pride and also the appreciation of true multiculturalism flooding the streets.
Niagara Falls! Must see.
The Canadian side is far superior to the United States. The sheer power of this is a drawcard in itself. If you are up for a little fun, go to Clifton Heights. I would not spend a lot of time in the actual city of Niagara though, just go and see the power that is The Falls 🙂
Sault Ste Marie
The Canadian Bushplane Heritage Center was actually surprisingly interesting.
The Sault Ste Marie Canal National Historic Site was neat as well, you can see a lock and watch as boats go through it. And if you walk across the lock onto Whitefish Island, where there are nice trails through a natural area and great views of the bridge that crosses to Sault Ste Marie, Michigan.
St. Jacob’s farmer’s market near Waterloo
Of all the places I have lived in Canada, and out of all the things I have done, my absolute favourite experience has been visiting the St. Jacob’s farmer’s market near Waterloo, the largest year-round market in the country. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Southern Ontario – it’s only about 1.5 hours from Toronto.
St. Jacob’s is a very cool place to visit and you feel as though you stepped back in time a bit. If you like food, this is definitely the farmer’s market of farmer’s markets. There are a lot of beautiful Bed and Breakfasts in the area that are quite picturesque. It makes for a nice weekend getaway.
Northern Ontario
Both Sleeping Giant National Park and the Sleeping Giant itself in Thunder Bay are worth a look if you’re in northern Ontario.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Quebec
Pros: Quebec is a province with a distinct culture, offering visitors a unique blend of European and North American influences. Quebec City is one of the most beautiful and historic cities in Canada, while Montreal is famous for its vibrant arts and culture scene. Quebec also has plenty of outdoor activities, including skiing and snowboarding in the Laurentians and Gaspé regions.
Cons: French is the primary language in Quebec, which may pose a challenge for non-French speaking visitors. Additionally, winters can be harsh and long in Quebec.
Reviews:
La belle province.
We used to visit lots when I was a kid, mostly up north around Rouyn and Val d’or. Those places have some great camping and fishing. It’s beautiful terrain. As an adult I’ve mostly visited Gatineau and Montreal. Gatineau has cheap beer and is over run by 18 year olds at the bar. It also has the Museum of History which I kind of liked. As for Montreal? Well I think it’s the best city in Canada to visit. So much good food, poutine, smoked meat, bagels. And lots to do. Almost every time I’ve been there it’s been mostly parties and strip clubs, but catching a Habs game there a few years was incredible. I’ve also only ever been in the winter. I hear the summer is great for festivals and stuff.
Summer in Montreal
I was fortunate enough to spend a chunk of time in Montreal. Beautiful city. There is so much to do during the summer, I do not even know where to begin. Old Montreal is stunning, but so is the whole city. Go and check the inner works of Notre-Dame Basilica. Go to the top of Mount Royal and experience the beautiful views of the city, as well as the vast parklands. Saint Catherine Street is such an awesome experience too, as they block off the streets and it becomes a street market. The night life here is also very, very good 😉
Winter in Quebec
I got to spend four days in Quebec City during a trip. I highly recommend experiencing this. Quebec City is my favourite place in Canada. Old Quebec is absolutely stunning, with cobblestone streets and old architecture. Carnaval de Quebec is on at this time also, which is a huge winter festival. Paying $15.00 for unlimited entry to go snow-tubing, ice-tobogganing, seeing snow sculptures etc. I stayed in a hostel just outside of Old Quebec, and everything was very easy to get to via walking.
Quebec City
Québec City is a phenomenal place to visit and isn’t too far from the States or other major cities in Canada. The reasons for Québec being such a great city to visit is that it has a great blend of French/English architectural styles due to the history of the region and has a great deal of inexpensive sights to see in Old Town Quebec (Vieux Quebec) – you’ll feel like you’re in Europe.
Another plus is that the coffee is phenomenal – it is very distinct from coffee in places like Toronto or in the States.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: British Columbia
Pros: British Columbia is renowned for its natural beauty, from the rugged coastline to the majestic Rocky Mountains. The province is home to Vancouver, one of the most livable cities globally, as well as the Okanagan Valley, which is famous for its wine production. British Columbia also has excellent skiing and snowboarding options, particularly in Whistler.
– Stunning natural scenery, from the mountains to the ocean
– Vibrant city life, with great food and nightlife scene
– Great for outdoor activities year-round, such as hiking, skiing, and surfing
– More relaxed lifestyle than in other parts of Canada
Cons: British Columbia can be expensive, particularly in Vancouver and the Whistler area.
– Expensive to live in, especially in Vancouver
– Traffic can be bad in the larger cities
– Some parts of the province can be quite remote
Reviews
I’d love to be in small town B.C. right now. I’ve been to Vancouver, it’s a great city. Pity it’s so expensive. But it has pretty good weather if you hate the cold. I loved the mountains around Vancouver. Whistler is nearby too.
My favourite spot in Canada is in the Kootenays of BC (Closer to Calgary than Vancouver) in a little town called Elko. Fernie is a more popular area which is nearby, but behind Elko is a small lake called Silver Spring lake you can do cliff diving on. I don’t know why but I just love it there. I’ve been meaning to go back for a while. Maybe this summer. Also speaking of Fernie, if I could pick any small town in Canada this would be it. I ate breakfast at Big Bang Bagels every day, rent seemed cheap, lots of Aussies, and there’s skiing/hiking/down hill biking/camping/fishing etc for everyone.
Winter in Vancouver
I started in Vancouver, where I explored the cities nooks and crannies. Vancouver was extremely clean and the general vibe was very welcoming. Just spending time looking over the harbor was great in itself. I went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge which was a great way to spend a morning. Unfortunately, I did not get to get outside the city to Grouse Mountain, but I think this would be a better experience in the summer anyway due to the weather.
From Vancouver, I caught the train across the country to Toronto. It was three days with VIA Rail. You do not get to stop in the cities (such as Jasper, Edmonton, Winnipeg to name a few) for very long (maybe 30 minutes), but it is a great way to see the country-side. If you wanted to jump off the train for a few days and check out some places, then I am sure you could do so – dependent on the schedule. On the train, I saw an epic view of Mt Robson and for me, it was the first time seeing snow – so I loved it.
Vancouver Island
You’ve got the best open water fishing in the country there, if you’re into that. Port Hardy’s been my best experience for Salmon. Cathedral Grove (near Nanaimo) is Canada’s equivalent to Big Tree National Park (in California). Mount Washington (like 1.25hr from Courtenay/Comox) is amazing skiing. Tofino is supposed to be the surf capital of BC.
Squamish, north of Vancouver on the Sunshine Coast, is like hiking/mountain biking/skiing/snowboarding/outdoor mecca. I desperately want to go back.
Unfortunately owning or renting a car is probably the best way to see and do the most on the Island. If you have a car available to you and are an adventurous person then Vancouver Island is an amazing travel destination in all seasons.
Skiing:
There is Mount Washington and Mount Cain. Washington is a fully developed ski resort with multiple gondolas and lots of accommodation. Cain is much smaller with only one T-bar and minimal accommodation. It does however boast amazing powder and is virtually untouched by big tourism. It’s purposefully kept in such a way to only attract the “Hardcore” crowd.
Kayaking:
Amazing opportunities are available to go kayaking for as long as a week or as short as an afternoon. The Strait of Georgia is filled with many small island (The Gulf Islands) which make it possible to kayak from island to island camping on beaches.
The Gulf Islands:
They provide a fun “Hippy” vibe while also being a relaxing destination.
Hiking:
There is a wide variety of options for hiking on the Island. You can take one of the many coastal trails such as the West Coast Trail or the North Coast Trail. You can also explore the alpine in Strathcona Provincial Park. Hiking can be anywhere from a week long to an afternoon to explore a mountain.
Surfing:
Tofino and Ucluelet are popular surfing destinations on the western coast of the Island. The winter time has colder weather and bigger waves while the summer has wonderful weather but larger crowds.
Fishing:
It’s possible to hire a guide in Campbell River or Ucluelet and head out and try to land a 20 lb salmon. An interesting way to experience an industry essential to the Island and potentially catch your dinner.
Whale Watching:
Tours can be chartered from Victoria’s inner harbour to the Strait of Georgia where there is usually pods of Orcas. A whale watching boat trip was my favourite activity ‘in’ Vancouver, it was fairly expensive but worth it in my opinion. Our guide was a genuine marine biologist and the company respected the code of conduct about not bothering the whales.
Cities:
Our cities are respectable enough and Vancouver is close but you should come to Vancouver Island for outdoor adventure.
Vancouver Island
Currently living and working on Vancouver Island, British Columbia (have been all my life. I would definitely recommend visiting. I live in Nanaimo, the “Hub” city of the island. From here you’re only 1.5 hours away from Victoria, the provincial capital, and about 3-4 hours from the open pacific ocean. Most of the population lives on the southern half of the island with a few smaller towns up north. The climate here is very Mediterranean like. We have warm and dry summers, and cool and wet winters. Overall a very comfortable climate!
There is so much outdoor stuff to do around here. Hiking all over the island: specifically Cape Scott Provincial Park (featuring the North Coast Trail), Strathcona Provincial Park, and the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve (featuring the West Coast Trail). Pair this with ocean related activities (kayaking, whale watching, fishing etc).
Food – Restaurants
In terms of food, Victoria would be my choice for best variety of restaurants. Lots of great places to eat. I am a big fan of The Noodlebox!
Vancouver! There’s so much to do and my god, it’s so beautiful. If you end up going to Vancouver I suggest you walk around Stanley park and check out the artwork + harbor.
I’d describe Vancouver as a small, big city. The city of Vancouver is actually very small compared to its population. The outskirts are a bunch of other towns and cities.
Other things to do in Vancouver:
Vancouver aquarium (it’s located right in Stanley park)
Perverted Ice Cream (really good ice cream place that’s open at night, near lots of bars and clubs — they sprinkle Malibu on your ice cream)
in the center of Vancouver there is an open dance group that gets together once in a while, they dance together right next to UBC. You can sit and watch or join in.
tons of cool shops in Vancouver center, Vancouver art museum if you’re into that
if you have the time I suggest going out to horseshoe bay, you can sometimes see harbor seals there and you can watch the ferry’s depart. If you are looking for accommodation I recommend to find nice and cheap Airbnb in horseshoe bay.
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Alberta
Pros: Alberta is home to some of the most iconic natural attractions in Canada, including Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, and Lake Louise. The province also offers visitors a chance to see the Northern Lights in the winter, while the city of Calgary is famous for its Stampede festival.
– Beautiful scenery, especially in the Rocky Mountains
– Friendly people
– Low taxes
– Lots of job opportunities, especially in the oil and gas industry
Cons: Alberta can be crowded, particularly during peak tourist seasons in Banff and Jasper. Winters can also be severe, making outdoor activities challenging.
– Winters can be very cold
– Not a lot of cultural diversity
– Can be quite expensive to live in, especially in the larger cities such as Calgary and Edmonton
Reviews:
I absolutely adore Alberta.
It’s where I’d like to be living right now. A little bit more developed than it’s neighbor Saskatchewan, it has some pretty big cities such as Edmonton and Calgary. Edmonton is a decent city, I like the area around the university, and there’s surprisingly lots to do. It’s really cold in the winter, but has some nice long summer days. My uncle came and visited me in Edmonton one time and he was blown away at how big the West Edmonton mall was.
Calgary would be my favourite city to live in if I could pick one. It’s a great size, the traffic doesn’t seem too bad, and the mountains are only an hour away. I’ve been a few times, but probably the best time to go is the Stampede. As a funny story, I used to live in the arctic. The first summer I was up there, I flew south for the Stampede in July. It was the first time I saw natural darkness since May. It was like 9:30 PM and I was asleep on the table outside, not because I was drunk, but because it was dark for the first time in months. Other destinations:
Banff, Alberta
Banff: Probably Canada’s crown jewel. Lake Louise is very nice. For me I enjoy the Lake Agnes Tea House hike. It’s only a few hours but you come to a small tea house on a lake and it’s great.
Jasper, Alberta:
Lesser developed than Banff, but equally beautiful. I’m headed there in the summer I think and can’t wait.
Drumheller, Alberta:
An interesting landscape for Canada. It’s got the Royal Tyrell Museum too.
Hanna, Alberta: Home to Nickelback 😉
Fort Mac, Alberta
Never been, but it’s a great Canadian boom town. I haven’t heard too many good things but it’s where the money is (or was, depending how pessimistic you are about the oil sands right now).

Pros and Cons of Calgary vs Edmonton
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Saskatchewan:
Pros: Saskatchewan offers visitors a chance to explore Canada’s prairies, from the vast expanses of wheat fields to the rolling hills and rivers of the Qu’Appelle Valley. The province also has several historic sites, including the Royal Saskatchewan Museum and the RCMP Heritage Centre.
Cons: Saskatchewan is a landlocked province, which may not appeal to visitors who prefer coastal destinations.
Reviews:
It’s quiet here but I live in a very rural area. Regina to me doesn’t have much, but the legislative building is about the most impressive one I’ve saw in Canada. Wascana lake is lovely too. I prefer Saskatoon, it’s a very nice city that’s up and coming. I can forsee it being a really popular place for people to live in the future as Saskatchewan continues to become more of a have province than a have not.
Great Sand Hills, Saskatchewan
The Great Sand Hills are sand dunes located in the south-west region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. They are the second largest active dunes in Saskatchewan, after Athabasca Sand Dunes, and are part of Great Sandhills Ecological Reserve, which covers an area of about 1,900 km² (730 sq mi) 1. The sands that make up the dunes are made up of very finely ground sand called rock flour that were deposited near the end of the last ice age. The region around the sand hills is often windy and, as a result, the wind blows the fine sands around creating an ever-changing landscape
In the Great Sand Hills area, there are an incredibly high number of Coyotes. While visiting the sand dunes, I was lucky enough to fall asleep and wake up to the sounds of their howls, yelps and barks.
Prowling the sand, a Coyote left it’s tracks in one of the areas largest dunes. With so many critters running across the sand at night, there’s no doubt that this Coyote caught some dinner.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Manitoba
Pros: Manitoba is known for its natural beauty, particularly its northern wilderness areas, which offer excellent opportunities for outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing. The province is also home to Winnipeg, which has several museums, art galleries, and cultural attractions. The cost of living is relatively low in Manitoba, and the province offers a number of programs to help immigrants settle in the province. Manitoba is located in central Canada and is best known for its prairies. The province is home to a large agricultural sector and is a leading producer of wheat, barley, and oats. Manitoba also has a thriving forestry industry, and the province is home to a number of large lakes, including Lake Winnipeg.
Cons: Manitoba can be cold in the winter, which may limit outdoor activities. Manitoba can be a very cold place to live, with long winters and short summers. The province also has a high crime rate.
Reviews:
I’ve been there a bunch. Winnipeg is alright. Not my favourite city but certainly has some nice parts. One thing I really like is how much French there is in Manitoba. Unfortunately west of Manitoba you wont find much French in the provinces. Churchill is a good place for polar bear watching, and is reachable by train. Riding Mountain and Duck Mountain parks are personally my favourite – though calling them mountains is a bit of a stretch.
Manitoba: Outdoors
Manitoba has basically a little bit of everything and if you enjoy camping and being outdoors has a lot of very excellent location. There are a number of Provincial Parks that can offer up activities such as canoe trails, hiking sites, etc. Whiteshell Provincial Park is particular excellent for canoers or winter enthusiasts. There are a number of great resorts within the park that offer a variety of different levels of comfort. All through the year there are huge number of festivals that take place, ranging from Music, Harvest, Tractor etc.
Winnipeg, Manitoba
Winnipeg has a lot of mix reviews but as my home town I’m pretty proud of it, it’s small enough not to have big city issues but big enough to draw in events and have many opportunities to check out. One thing I’m most proud about is the food! Culturally you can just about satisfy any type of craving, Korean to Caribbean with a quick visit/search to urbanspoon you’ll find what you’re looking for. There are tones of wonderful Mom and Pop shops offering up the same thing you’ll find on their dinner table at home. If you want to feel like a real local take in either of our two local sports teams and join with the masses in downing sorrows over a pitcher of beer (they’re both not very good but they do have a loyal fan base).
The popular thing to do in Winnipeg is complain, but we do take pride in how damn cold it is in the winter or how many misquotes there are in the summer. For transportation – there is a useable public transportation system, its ok but lacking in comparison to what I’ve seen in other countries or other places in Canada, and most people do drive. In the summer the city is very cyclable and there are quite a few shops to rent from.
The arts and theatre seen is thriving and growing, we do have a number of theatre companies and the exchange district is one of the more popular areas to check out if you’re interested. Shopping is decent there are two bigger malls as well a variety of shopping districts scattered across the city. Most visitors fly into Winnipeg however it also can be reached by rail, bus and of course by car.
Churchill, Manitoba.
It’s very close to Nunavut’s border, has enough tourist infrastructure to support visitors during all 4 seasons, and has a number of attractions that can’t be found elsewhere – namely, polar bears and beluga whales. You’ll also get the subarctic tundra experience.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Newfoundland and Labrador
Pros: Newfoundland and Labrador offer visitors a chance to explore Canada’s Atlantic coastline, with its rugged cliffs, quaint fishing villages, and abundant wildlife. The province is also home to Gros Morne National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the historic city of St. John’s.
Cons: Newfoundland and Labrador can be challenging to access, particularly during the winter months.
Reviews:
Quirpon Island is not easy to get to , but its remoteness is amazing.
Trip to Gros Morne National Park and elsewhere on the Great Northern Peninsula
Travel was easy although quite a long drive from the capital city (St. John’s), but if you are already on the west coast of the island it shouldn’t be so bad. There are many small communities throughout the area, so most things of interest are accessible by car. Camping isn’t necessary as there are many places to stay, but is definitely an option depending on your preferences.
Minimal hiking necessary for most of the photos I’ve posted, besides the view from the top of the mountain. That was probably a 6 – 8 hour hike, if I remember correctly. There are certainly no shortage of hikes in the area if that’s something you are into, some of which are short and easy with others being multi-day excursions. Safety shouldn’t be an issue, the most dangerous part of my trip was likely driving due to the risk of hitting a moose or caribou.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: New Brunswick
Pros: New Brunswick is known for its stunning coastal scenery, including the Bay of Fundy, which has the highest tides in the world. The province is also home to several national parks, including Fundy National Park and Kouchibouguac National Park, which offer visitors a chance to explore Canada’s natural beauty. New Brunswick is one of the most affordable provinces to live in, with a low cost of living and affordable housing. The province also offers a number of programs to help immigrants settle in the province.
Cons: New Brunswick can be crowded during peak tourist seasons, particularly in the summer months. New Brunswick can be a very cold place to live, with long winters and short summers. The province also has a high crime rate.
Reviews:
St John
St John is a nice little place to stop for lunch. It has a big indoor market called the St John City Market with a large variety of food. That was all I did in St John though, so I can’t speak to how the city itself is, or what else there is to do there.
Fundy National Park is a very beautiful place. It has quite a few nice short hikes to the shore or along rivers to waterfalls. It has some decent campgrounds, a golf course, and is right near the little town of Alma which has some decent places to eat. I had food at the Parkland Village Inn and the Harbour View Restaurant, both were fairly good.
The Hopewell Rocks were the highlight of New Brunswick for me. They aren’t too far from Fundy NP, so I drove out to Hopewell in the morning at high tide, went back to Fundy NP for a shortish hike, had lunch in Alma, then went to Hopewell at low tide. It’s a really cool place to witness the extreme tides of the Bay of Fundy. At low tide you get to walk along the shoreline and see the neat rock formations and mud flats.
Moncton
I stopped in Moncton, but I didn’t think it was that great of a city. I’m sure there are people that would rightfully disagree with me, but there just didn’t seem to be too much to do there. I saw the tidal bore on the Petitcodiac River, which is when there is a “wave” of water (seen in that pictures) that flows upstream along the river when the tide starts to come in. I was there on a day when the wave was pretty small, but supposedly some days it is really impressive.
Moncton also has Magnetic Hill, which in my opinion is definitely not worth the money you pay. It is essentially an optical illusion that you are a part of, where your car rolls backwards “uphill”. Right next to it was the Magnetic Hill Zoo. It wasn’t the best zoo, but it was surprisingly well stocked, for lack of a better word, for a zoo in a small city in New Brunswick. The day I was there was really hot so all the animals were being pretty lazy.
After Moncton I went to Parlee Provincial Park, which was one of the nicest beaches I have ever been to. The waters of the Gulf of St Lawrence were amazingly warm, and the beach was shallow with very nice sand.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Nova Scotia
Pros: Nova Scotia is home to some of the most picturesque coastal scenery in Canada, with its rugged coastline, lighthouses, and charming fishing villages. The province is also known for its seafood, particularly its lobster and scallops. Halifax, the provincial capital, is a vibrant city with a rich maritime history.
Cons: Nova Scotia can be crowded during peak tourist seasons, particularly in the summer months. The weather can also be unpredictable, with fog and rain common along the coast.
Reviews:
Halifax (City):
Halifax is a great, lively city. Lots of nice little shops and bars throughout the downtown, and the city absolutely comes alive at nights, from Thursdays through Saturdays. Every night has its own bar. The Museum of Natural History is good fun.
Halifax has a nice boardwalk home to drunk lamp posts, many boats docked in the harbor, cool buildings and wildlife like cats, jellyfish and art students. If you leave the waterfront and walk up hill into the city, there are sights like the old clock tower, an old cemetery with a sign asking why Nova Scotia isn’t American, a nice public garden, and the fort at the top of the hill. The fort is owned by the national parks, so it does have a fee.
The national parks have an annual pass that I got, and it saved me money after going to Fundy NP, Cape Breton Highlands NP and the Halifax Fort. At the fort you can get a guided tour, just walk around the fort, and watch reenactments.
Halifax Citadel
This is a 19th century British star shaped fort, patrolled by historical reinactors during the summer months. The reinactors represent the 78th Highlanders and the 3rd Brigade of the Royal Artillery, British military units that were stationed in Halifax between 1869 and 1871. The Highlanders wear kilts, carry antique Snider-Enfield breach loading rifles, and perform infantry drill on the parade square.
The Royal Artillery fires off a 12 pound muzzle loading 1812 pattern gun at noon every day, and sometimes performs other artillery drills. The fort itself is very well maintained and has been reverted to something close to its 1869 configuration, with a number of exhibits scattered around the fort explaining the history and purpose of the place. There’s also a small military museum on site. There are small events occurring throughout the year, but the most notable is probably a Victorian Christmas.
HMCS Sackville
This museum ship is the last of the Flower Class corvettes. During WWII, this class of ship escorted convoys across the Atlantic, guarding them from German subs. It’s not a terribly big ship, but it’s well worth seeing if you have any interest in WWII history.
Halifax Public Gardens
IMO, they’re some of the finest public gardens that you’ll find anywhere, a beautiful green oasis at the edge of downtown. They’re gorgeous.
Halifax Pier 21 – The Canadian equivalent of Ellis Island, it houses the Canadian Museum of Immigration. It’s been pretty well liked and received, in part because it tends to be pretty good at admitting the bad with the good.
Halifax Point Pleasant Park – Not as nice as the Public Gardens, but it’s filled with walking trails, views of the ocean, the oldest Martello tower in North America, and other assorted monuments and historical sites. After Hurricane Juan in 2003, most of the trees in the park were knocked down. They’ve since been replaced with a selection of trees intended to match the biodiversity of the original Acadian forest that would have been found here.
Halifax: Maritime Museum of the Atlantic
A reasonably decent museum. The highlight of the collection is the Victoria Cross of William Hall, the first Nova Scotian and first black man to be awarded a Victoria Cross. He was awarded that medal for service in Lucknow, India; coincidently, the 78th Highlanders fought in the same conflict.
Halifax Seaport Market
A good farmers market just outside downtown, along the waterfront, where you can buy local produce and handcrafts. Or watch from the roof as ships go by. Go on Saturdays or Sundays, and it’s right next to Pier 21.
Halifax Boardwalk
A long boardwalk along the Halifax Harbour. It’s pretty, a nice way to spend an early morning. The historic properties at one end of the boardwalk are quite nice.
Whale watching, fishing trips – You can go on these from Halifax harbour. I’ve never been, but some tourists love these things.
Halifax: Keith’s Brewery Tour
It’s a brewery tour. They’re neat. Alexander Keith was a former mayor, head of the local Masons, and pillar of society in Halifax. Also, the uncle of Alexander “Sandy” Keith Jr, Confederate spy and international terrorist. Keith’s remains the go-to beer of Halifax, for better or for worse. There beer at the end of the tour.
Halifax: Neptune Theatre – The largest live theatre in the region. The current artistic director is making an effort to balance local content, particularly from women and minorities, with “put people in seats” content that drives subscribers. This spring and early summer (2020), the big show on the main stage is Billy Elliot; the studio space is frequently used for other local theatre companies putting on short runs of original works.
Halifax Fringe Festival
The end of August has a theatre festival in Halifax. Quality is… uneven. There are some gems; I suggest reading reviews.
Halifax Jazz Festival, Halifax Pop Explosion
These occur. People like them. They’re not my thing.
Halifax Mooseheads
the local Q-league hockey team. They’re typically pretty good. They’re named after a beer brand.
Halifax: Crystal Crescent Beach, Lawrencetown Beach
White sand beaches a short drive from the city centre. The North Atlantic water can be a bit chilly.
Halifax: Peggy’s Cove
The single most “instaworthy” place in the area, especially the lighthouse. It’s a gorgeous area. It’s also swarmed with tourists most of the summer. STAY OFF OF THE BLACK ROCKS.
Halifax Eating
I’m not really the foodie sort, but: Two Doors Down, Chives, Antojo, Gahan House, and The Wooden Monkey are well liked by my friends who are would-be foodies. Halifax has a number of popular bars; I’m a non-drinker, but the Split Crow has some interesting history, and the Old Triangle is well liked by multiple social circles that I’m connected to. The Old Apothecary is a pretty good bakery/pastry shop, and Cows ice cream on the waterfront in the summer is uddely divine (Cows is also in PEI – wherever you see it, if you can eat ice cream, it’s well worth braving the long lines for a scoop or three). Pete’s Fruitique makes some nice sandwiches if you’re just looking for a quick and tasty bite downtown.
Cape Breton
Cape Breton has some beautiful sights. The Cabot Trail is gorgeous during the fall, but it’s also very nice during the summer time. There’s some great swimming spots and hikes. If you’re staying along the Cabot Trail and camping, go to Dunvegan. Best campsite on the island by far. The Fortress of Louisbourg is definitely worth seeing as well.
It’s EXTREMELY touristy, of course, but it’s still nice. Probably not very impressive for anyone from Europe, though. Gooseberry Cove is probably my favourite place in Cape Breton. Not many people know about it. It’s a rugged coast, with a tranquil lake and a small stream that runs into the ocean, along with giant, green rolling hills.
Cape Breton Island is my favorite place in Canada. It is definitely an interesting place culture-wise. There were signs in Gaelic and French. I spent a night at Whycocomagh Provincial Park, home to Nova Scotia’s (I believe) only totem pole. That night I went for a nice drive along the shores of Bras d’Or Lake which was really pretty and I would definitely recommend it.
Amherst Shore Provincial Park
I spent the first night in Nova Scotia at Amherst Shore Provincial Park. All of the Provincial and National Parks in Canada that I’ve been to seem to be clean, well run, and nice places to visit.
En route from Amherst Shore to Cape Breton Island, I stopped at the Pugwash Farmer’s Market, which was a cute little breakfast stop.
The drive along the Cabot Trail is absolutely gorgeous. It brings you along the coast, through cute towns, and up into the highlands.
The Skyline hiking trail
The Skyline hiking trail is, in my opinion, a must if you are in Cape Breton Highlands National Park. It is right off the Cabot Trail, it is an easy 5 mile loop that is essentially flat, and it has amazing views of the coast and the highlands. I saw a moose cross the trail, and a pod of dolphins in the ocean below the trail. It was fairly busy, so if that is a deterrent for you, I’m sure the other trails of the NP are great as well. It wasn’t full of annoying tourists or anything though.
Meat Cove campground
At the north tip of the Cabon Trail loop, Bay St Lawrence Road heads towards the north tip of Nova Scotia. At the end of this long dirt road is Meat Cove campground, one of my favorite campgrounds ever. It is situated in a stunning location. It has little cabins if camping isn’t your thing, and Hine’s Ocean View Lodge is near by. I had dinner at a little place in Cape North that had delicious, cheap, mostly fried sea food. Unfortunately I can’t find what it was called. The historic society in Cape North was a neat place to visit.
The rest of the Cabot Trail loop was still beautiful as it went along the coast.
After Cape Breton, I spent a night at a little campground behind these houses in Sherbrooke. It was right on a river and next to an old sawmill that is still in operation and cool to look around. The coast road between Sherbrooke and Halifax wasn’t much of a scenic route, so i took a side road out onto one of the peninsulas to a little fishing village. I’m definitely glad I did, and would suggest that anyone driving along the coast east of Halifax do the same.
Digby
Digby was a very nice little town. I stayed Digby Backpackers Inn, which was a nice place. When I was there they had a concert on the green kind of thing going on, so I got to sit and eat at a seafood place while watching live music. It was a nice little town to walk around in for a bit. There were lots of boats in the harbor and other cool things to see. There is a ferry across the Bay of Fundy from Digby to St John, NB. It was nice at first then got really foggy.
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Prince Edward Island (PEI)
Pros: Prince Edward Island is a small province that offers visitors a chance to explore Canada’s east coast charm. The province is famous for its red-sand beaches, lighthouses, and picturesque countryside. It is also the birthplace of Anne of Green Gables, a beloved children’s book character.
Cons: Prince Edward Island can be crowded during peak tourist seasons, particularly in the summer months. It is also a small province, which may limit the range of activities available to visitors. https://www.tourismpei.com/
Reviews:
Prince Edward Island is genuinely beautiful. If you know how to drive, definitely rent out a cottage for a week and not only visit the usual tourist hotspots, but drive along to each corner of the island. Stop at the family establishments along the way & stare out into the beautiful landscapes!
PEI Beaches
So many great beaches in PEI—Brackley beach (Richards takeout is delicious), Singing sands at Basinhead, and Thunder cove were some of our favorites. Charlottetown is a cool city to walk through/have lunch with some cool historical points of interest plus there’s a lovely boardwalk. Summerside is a cute town too, and there’s a diner there that serves quite good food. There’s also a huge haunted house which I thought would be hokey and awful but it was actually really quirky and cool and very enjoyable imo.
PEI: Anne of Green Gables
Of course Anne of Green Gables is a must, go to Cavendish and walk through the house and grounds 🙂 There are many Anne-related things to do. I’d you stop at the visitors center when you first get on the Island, they have tons of great resources and also maps of some great coastal driving tours that are worth doing. There is also a Ripleys Believe it or Not museum. It’s very relaxed, and so beautiful there.
+Tea Cup Rock hike! Super cool rock formation
+Greenwich Dunes in Prince Edward Island National Park
Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine, Quebec: A very French piece of Quebec off the coast of Prince Edward Island.
We took a converted ferry/liner down the river from Montreal about 12 years ago. Stayed on the isles for 3 days. It is remote and uncrowded. Very beautiful. Bikes are great, but to really see everything it is well worth it to rent a car for a day or two. There are some wonderful empty beaches to the northern end of the islands, and the fishing village to the south is worth a day or more. Plan everything well in advance though, there aren’t a lot of resources there, so it pays to reserve things ahead of time. BUT, by all means go. We still talk about it.
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Yukon
Pros: Yukon offers visitors a chance to explore Canada’s wild and remote northern wilderness. The province is home to several national parks, including Kluane National Park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also an excellent destination for outdoor activities such as hiking, canoeing, and wildlife viewing.
Cons: Yukon can be expensive and challenging to access, particularly during the winter months. The weather can also be unpredictable, with long periods of darkness during the winter.

Road Trip to the Yukon
Hey Yukoner here! Probably best to go with 4×4 driving-wise.. As for what you include with your plans I have numerous ideas. On the drive up I would recommend stopping at the Liard Hot Springs, beautiful place to hop in and relax in a natural hot spring. Whitehorse is a great place for hiking and has a lot of fishing spots as well, if you find Canadian tire there are pamphlets that will tell you of all the places.
Another must for visiting the Yukon is Dawson City. It’s a very small town that used to be filled with people and is the home of the Gold Rush. When you’re there be sure to join the Sourtoe Cocktail Club.
If you’re interested in more of the hiking and camping aspect check out Kluane National Park or Tombstone Territorial Park.
Another good campsite is Fox Lake Campground, which can be found on the way to Dawson City. Also on the way to Dawson is Braeburn Lodge, which advertises big cinnamon buns.. Some people who go there like it, but it’s mainly for the tourist buses and the guy who owns it is pretty rude and the food isn’t great either.
If you want to make a quick trip to the States, you can go to Skagway, Alaska which is 2 hours out of Whitehorse. It’s a nice place, although it is very touristy.
Yukon (Inuvik) review
Out of all of the Canadian towns and cities we visited, Inuvik was by far the one I am most thankful that we made the effort to go to. It is so incredibly unique.
We stayed with a local through AirBnb and I think that added to our experience. As a tourist it wasn’t so much about the attractions or tours available from being there, it was more just the chance to see first hand the atmosphere of the town and community. Coming from New Zealand, the thought of never ending daylight in the summer and darkness in the winter totally blows my mind.
Everyone we met fit into the stereotype of being extremely friendly (everyone seems to know everyone) and just total bad asses that have so much love for the place (otherwise why would they live there!?). That might be a fairly naïve assumption to make but that’s totally the impression that was made. I’ve got so much respect for anyone who has ever called Inuvik home.
A couple of days before we arrived they had to shoot a bear in the center of town because he was wandering around the streets. I thought that only ever happened in movies… no wait, that is so farfetched that it doesn’t even happen in movies :-p
Inuvik made such an impression on me that I would love nothing more than to spend a winter there. I cant even imagine the stark differences between summer and winter.
Dawson City review
Go to the visitor’s centre in Whitehorse – they’ll give you some good recommendations for hiking routes. Definitely check out the Takhini hot springs, do a rafting tour and a horseback tour. For some well-signed mountain bike trails, head to Mount Mac, and cool off afterwards in the Canada Games Centre pool, complete with waterslide and lazy river. Hang out at Yukon Brewing Co, they make fantastic beer and offer brewery tours. Eat at Burnt Toast. Go climbing. The Beringia Centre is worth a visit.
Personally, I’m much more fond of Dawson City. The town is fantastic, and you have a really fun pioneering vibe. If you haven’t already set your dates, I’d suggest timing it so you can go to the Dawson City Music Festival in mid-July. Really laid back and fun. You’re close to Tombstone Territorial Park, which is a must-see. Indulge in geeky Robert Service and Jack London reenactments, hike Crocus Bluff and Midnight Dome, go to the gambling hall, check out some dredges, go panning for gold, go canoeing. For food and drink, check out Bombay Peggy’s and Klondike Kate’s. Once again, make full use of the visitors’ centre for good hiking trails and a safety/bear debrief.

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Northwest Territories
Pros: Northwest Territories is one of the most remote and sparsely populated regions in Canada, offering visitors a chance to explore Canada’s northern wilderness. The province is home to several national parks, including Wood Buffalo National Park, which is the largest national park in Canada. It is also an excellent destination for outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing.
Cons: Northwest Territories can be expensive and challenging to access, particularly during the winter months. The weather can also be harsh, with long periods of darkness during the winter.
Reviews:
Northern Canada
I lived in the Northwest Territories for a year and a half, and I’m actually planning on going back soon. I really liked Yellowknife. It’s got charm to it. Sure it’s damn cold in the winter, but the 24 hrs of sun in the summer are impossible to beat. Old town is quite charming. It’s got lots of (expensive) bars. Probably the thing I liked most was how far away it was from everything else. Like you’re 1600 km north of Edmonton if I recall correctly. Some favourites outside of YK were:
Hidden Lake – down the Ingraham trail. Great little canoe area with a few portages
House boats in the winter – good for outdoor hockey.
Utsingi point/hole in the wall – east arm of Great Slave Lake. It’s absolutely gorgeous here, but make sure you go with someone who knows what they are doing. We lost an engine on our boat and it took us a few days to come home by our backup 9HP. I’ve heard of boats sinking. If something goes wrong out here, you’re hundreds of kilometers to the next town.
Nahanni: I don’t know many people who know about Nahanni National Park but it’s probably Canada’s nicest National Park in my opinion.
Yellowknife is one of those places that gets in your bones and you want to go back again. It’s a very transplant/transient place. No one is from there and yet people have lived there for 20 years because they fall in love with the north. (No one white, that is). In a lot of ways it’s like Alice Springs.
We went during their snow festival which is awesome. Massive castle on the lake. There was a burlesque show and a pub. And we got to meet the snow king who ( apparently) is a local celeb who puts it on. River breakup is also a big time of year there
Whitehorse
I’ve went to Whitehorse last Feb and couldn’t recommend it enough. I went during there winter festival, Sourdough Rendezvous, and it was awesome. We went dog sledding with Sky High Wilderness Ranch for a full day and loved it. For a small fee they will pick you up and drop you off in town, and they have multiday trips if you want that. There is an awesome glass blowing place that you should check out, totally worth taking a class. We also found other travelers to charter a small plane and go check out Mount Logan. The towns people are so warm and welcoming and will sit down and make out a list of thing you just have to check out. I would go back in a heart beat!

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Nunavut
Pros: Nunavut is the most remote and northernmost region in Canada, offering visitors a chance to explore Canada’s arctic wilderness. The province is home to several national parks, including Auyuittuq National Park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also an excellent destination for outdoor activities such as dog sledding, snowmobiling, and wildlife viewing.
Cons: Nunavut can be expensive and challenging to access, particularly during the winter months. The weather can also be harsh, with long periods of darkness during the winter.

Road Trip
Road tripping up to Tuktoyaktuk is pretty sweet. I didn’t see any polar bears when I did it but saw loads of other wildlife. Plenty of places to camp, plus cool non-nature spots along the way like Whitehorse and Dawson City (DC is a little bit of a side trek but nothing serious).
Cost
Having lived in Iqaluit, I can confirm it’s super expensive. For example to go out with a sled dog team would be in the area of $500. Rent a skidoo for a day, $300. Hotels are really expensive too and obviously the flights. You could probably fly around the world for the same price as getting to most Nunavut communities. Essentially there is no ‘Nunavut travel on a budget’.
Best time to visit
I should add, it’s still a very unique place. Most beautiful in September in my opinion. I owned a skidoo but preferred hiking Apex trail or Sylvia Granell and blueberry berry picking. Unbelievable landscape; you would think you’re in Iceland or Greenland. One major misconception is you can see the northern lights on any odd night. Have big lived there 3 years I probably saw them a dozen or more nights..

Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: Driving from Ottawa to Edmonton – Some Fun Things Along The Way?
Now I’ve found a route, which you can view here
I’ve driven this, I really wouldn’t recommend driving it straight though, especially if you are alone. This is a 36 hour drive, not including stops for gas, food, washrooms, etc., you will be exhausted and more likely to make mistakes and have an accident. Northern Ontario is also very dangerous at night due to moose and other wildlife which can appear out of nowhere, so I wouldn’t suggest driving after dark through this area. Some of the areas, especially on your chosen route, don’t have great cell phone reception either so if you do have an accident it could be bad if you can’t call for help.
The only change I would suggest to your route is to head towards Sault St Marie, and then cut north before the border. You’ll get some nice views of the lakes that way. Wawa has a giant goose if you like seeing giant things in each city. Definitely stop in Thunder Bay to see the Terry Fox memorial, it’s a Canadian pride thing but you also get an amazing view from the top of the hill. Since you’ll be in Edmonton, I’d suggest driving out to Jasper or Banff as well, beautiful areas both and only a few hours from where you’ll be. You could even take a detour through Calgary instead of heading towards Saskatoon, and check out the parks on your way to Edmonton

How long does it take to travel from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Vancouver, British Columbia by train?
About 6–8 days
There’s no direct train between the two, so you need to take three trains. The first is the train from Halifax to Montreal, which takes about 18 hours. Then the train from Montreal to Toronto, which is about 5.5 hours. The last is from Toronto to Vancouver, but it only runs twice a week and it takes four days to make the trip. Source: Quora
Exploring the Pros and Cons of Visiting All Provinces and Territories in Canada: What are the best places in Canada to go see the northern lights?
The northern lights are a spectacular natural light show visible at certain times of the year in the Northern Hemisphere1. They are caused by electrically charged particles from the sun entering the Earth’s atmosphere and colliding with gaseous particles12. The different colours of the lights depend on the type of gas particles involved
Some of the best places in Canada are Yellowknife, Whitehorse, Churchill, Banff and Jasper. These places have high latitudes, clear skies and low light pollution, which are ideal for aurora viewing.
If you’re US based and want to see the northern lights, the best place to go is Fairbanks, Alaska. I’ve been seeing them like 5 nights a week on average this whole winter. Plus it’s an actual city of 100k people with five direct flights per day from Seattle. We’re at the same latitude as Reykjavik, so smack dab in the center of the auroral band. Inside that band you have the optimum chance of seeing the Aurora.
The further south or north you travel from that area, the less chance you have of seeing the Aurora (despite the common misconception that further north is better). Plus Fairbanks also has hot springs like Iceland, and lodging and meals are like a third of the cost as in Iceland.
Travel and Leisure magazine listed Fairbanks as their top destination to see the Aurora in the whole world.
There’s only a handful of actual cities in the whole world that sit within the auroral band and only 2 of them are outside Russia: Reykjavik and Fairbanks.
What is the most canadian town/village and why?
Jasper, AB. It feels very canadian with the Rockies, the train not far, the overall ambiance in the village and the local community.
Wakefield, QC. In the middle of the land of the raftmans, Wakefield have a very cozy vibe and the local community over there is very warm.
Picton, ON. Located not far from Sandbanks, I love this town. Once again : nature, nice vibe, great locals
Moose Jaw is as Canadian as it gets, even the name.
Dawson Creek, BC. It’s small but bustling; it has new industry and old (farming). It has a thriving arts community and an old grain elevator right in town. It has the coolest museum, talented quilters, a busy airport and it’s Mile 0 on the Alaska Highway.
What is the Most Beautiful Part of Northern Canada?
In northern Canada I’m including northern BC, the Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec and the Maritimes.
- Add to your list, the stretch from Sudbury to Thunder Bay. In summers, you would see amazing views of Lake Superior and the drive is paradise. Geographically, it might not qualify as “northern” though.
- Northern BC Lava beds, drive from prince Rupert to terrace one of the most scenic and real fresh air. The Nisga’a highway is amazing too
- Born and raised in Northern BC. Have lived my adulthood in Alberta. If you’re coming up from the states, come in via Alberta and go through Waterton, it’s amazing. Then the mountain drive from Banff to Jasper, check Revelstoke along the way. Then depending how you go north from there, you can go via Prince George and do Bakersville and Quesnel. Or you go up via Grande Prairie to Dawson Creek then take the Alaska Highway all the way up through to Alaska. There are so many great spots. Check out a lot of provincial parks along the way, Gwillum Lake, Monkman Park, Watson Lake and Liard Hot Springs are all great stops.
- Summer is great for very little to no dark, but lately, a lot of fires. Winter can mean very bad road conditions and very little daylight, but amazing Northern Lights and stargazing opportunities
- Auyuittuq national park. Mount thor is breathtaking but it is ridiculously expensive to get to pangnirtung nu. The percentage of Canadians that have been is miniscule.
- Most of northern Canada isn’t all that interesting-flat boggy with billions of small trees (& mozzies). Yukon has the highest mountains in Canada so is probably what you’re looking for.
- Northern Labrador, Tornga Mountains.
- Icefields parkway.
- Deece
- The Tundra Baffin Island
- I once went to Radisson, Quebec and saw the craziest northern lights ever. Also the drive there was like 600kms with one service station at the 300km point that had signs saying “mandatory fueling point” which blew my mind. Just the 6 hours of nothing was so incredible to see.
- Also went to Churchill & York Factory, MB and saw a lot of Polar Bears. Both super cool spots as well!
- The Alaskan highway is the Serengeti of the north. Starts in Dawson creek and I think it gets good after Fort st.john. Telegraph Creek has been referred to as the Canadian Grand Canyon, tis neat. Liard hot springs are the best I’ve ever seen. Tombstone national park in the fall. There’s a few days of the year where well I can only try to explain what I seen. It had been cloudy and a lot of humidity. The sun was setting and shining across the valley on an angle. Big puffy bright white clouds spanned the horizon casting dark purple blue shadows on the sky behind the clouds. They floated on top of the sun’s golden glow warming the valley from the cool air above. The road was wet dirt and gravel lined with blazing red fire weed cutting through fields of deep green grasses dotted with trees there’s leaves orange red and amber. In the distance mountains jet out of the country side like the tombstones of giants. The rest of time I was there it was so foggy and overcast I couldn’t see much. Flight out of inivik was canceled due to weather. Honestly there’s so many beautiful places you don’t need to go far. Only go north if you like the drive. Athabasca river has a place where the river has carved tunnels and with steps that you walk through.
- Watson lake. Yukon. Greatest northern lights location.
- The Torngat Mountains are extremely beautiful. The Moisey River that runs from Western Labrador to the St. lawrence is extremely beautiful.
- Nahanni National Park
- If you have the money, take an Arctic cruise through the Northwest Passage. You could drive to Tuktoyaktuk from somewhere in the south, such as Calgary or Edmonton, with side trips to places like Yellowknife.
- BC through Mezadine Lake, Jade City, all the way to Whitehorse and Dawson City, YK. Then go through Tombstone Territorial Park. The most breathtaking scenery you’ll lay your eyes upon. Anywhere North of 60 is pure magic.
- Mealy Mountains National Park near Goosebay Labrador is another.
- If you have the money, getting taken to a remote fishing camp in Labrador or Northern Quebec is a life changing experience.

Days 19-30 (or Days 24-34 – see dilemma below) – Nova Scotia (need an itinerary here on its own) – was thinking Cape Breton, Cabot trail, Lunenburg, Brier Island for whale watching.. Anything else?
Now here is my dilemma for days between Quebec City and Nova Scotia- we want spend 10-14 days in Nova Scotia. I understand driving from QC through NB is boring and there’s really no reason to stop in NB and spend a few days. So my thought was to drive through Maine and add 2 stops there. But I don’t really know where to stop and what to do, not familiar with the area. The other option is to fly into Halifax and then fly back to Montreal/Toronto for our flight back home. thoughts?
I’m from Cape Breton and lived in Halifax for years.
I’d definitely suggest checking out Cape Breton. It’s the best part of nova scotia and imo, one of the best places in Canada. It’s beautiful, there’s little French towns. Gaelic college (the only one outside of the uk).
I’d personally skip the US and drive through New Brunswick. We often called it nofunswick since there’s not much to do there, but the tidal waters are pretty cool. I also like the Riverview area. It’s small, has cute cafes and nice people.
I’d suggest checking out Northumberland and bay ferries. I believe there’s a ferry route that will take you across the Bay of Fundy, landing in Digby.
You can check out some of what new Brunswick has to offer, ferry over to Digby and check out southern nova scotia up to Lunenburg. You could spend a couple days in Halifax then drive up to cape Breton.
You can technically do the Cabot trail in a day of driving but I would suggest stopping places.
Baddeck is a cute little town at the start of the trail. I’d go the long way (about 20 minutes longer than taking the English town ferry) so you can check out the gealic college. They often do music nights where you can hear some authentic Gaelic music. I’d then drive through Englishtown and check out the cool shops. The clucking hen is an amazing stop for breakfast. There’s cute little leatherworking shops and stuff you can check out.
From there I’d plan to spend a night in Ingonish. Ingoish beach is beautiful, and it’s close to broad cove and Warren lake. The hike around theg lake is easy and around 3 kms.
You also can check out marry Ann falls.
This is kind of a secret spot, but there’s a place called tarbotvale. You won’t hear about it on any touristy websites, it’s a small rural area. There’s a point where you go over a small bridge. The river widens and its a great place to swim. There’s a Tarzan rope under the bridge and you can also jump off the bridge. We’d always stop here after ingonish beach to wash the salt water off of us. You can follow the river and hike up to three sets of waterfalls. It’s a fun hike that you have to swim at some places. The falls get bigger and bigger. The final falls is huge and takes about 3 hours to get to. It’s a little secret gem.
There’s also gypsum mine, that is a pretty cool spot to swim.
When you get to the top of Mount smokey There’s a dirt road you can take that will lead you to an incredible look off.
I’d also plan to spend a night in Cheticamp. It’s a cute little French town that’s on the west side of the island. L’abri is an amazing little Cafe and bnb. Highly recommend this place.
I hope you enjoy your trip to cape Breton!!
What are the safest place to live in Canada from natural disasters?
Canada is a vast country with a diverse range of climates and landscapes, and as a result, it is subject to a variety of natural disasters, including wildfires, floods, earthquakes, and severe weather events. While no place is entirely immune to natural disasters, there are some regions in Canada that are generally considered to be safer than others. Here are some places to consider:
- Prince Edward Island: This small province on the east coast of Canada has a relatively low risk of natural disasters. It is not prone to earthquakes or wildfires, and its coastal areas are protected by dikes and other flood control measures.
- Newfoundland and Labrador: Another eastern province, Newfoundland and Labrador also have a low risk of natural disasters. The area is not prone to earthquakes, and while it does experience severe weather, it is less vulnerable to flooding than some other regions.
- Quebec City: The capital of the province of Quebec is located on a promontory overlooking the St. Lawrence River and is relatively sheltered from the more severe weather that can affect other parts of the province. It is also not at high risk for wildfires or earthquakes.
- Southern Ontario: The southern part of Ontario, including Toronto, has a relatively low risk of natural disasters. While the area does experience severe weather, including winter storms, it is not prone to flooding or earthquakes.
- Ontario: This province is located in central Canada and has a moderate risk of natural disasters. Ontario can experience winter storms, floods, and tornadoes, but the risk of earthquakes and wildfires is relatively low.
- Manitoba: Manitoba is located in central Canada and has a low risk of natural disasters. While the province can experience severe weather, such as blizzards and thunderstorms, the risk of earthquakes, hurricanes, and wildfires is relatively low.It is important to note that while these regions are generally considered to be safer from natural disasters, no place is completely immune to the unpredictable forces of nature.

- 197-800-263944
- (Remember to change the random 5 digits until it works)
3. Purchase Discount Gift Cards for Gas
Rewards card – Cashback
You can discover a great deal of rebate gift vouchers for gas on the web. These will work all things considered Shell, Gulf, and Mobil stations. They will spare a couple of dollars for each buy, yet that can add up to enormous reserve funds on a yearly premise.
The Optimum program is one of the better value points programs. And the points convert to cash discounts on stuff you buy every day, rather than air travel and catalogues full of slightly aged-out consumer trinkets that you don’t really need.
If you are a Costco member and also optimum member, which option gives you the most savings?
From a quick google of prices in my area it looks like the average price is around $2/L and Costco is currently around $1.75. The value of the Optimum program is more that you can keep your eye out for specials and earn points which can then be put toward gas purchases. But the basic earnings of 10 pts/litre (1¢ equivalent) and redeem up to 4,000 pts ($4 equivalent) aren’t anywhere near 25¢/litre. If you don’t mind the lines 😉
If you have one near, try to fuel up at Mobil gas instead of Esso. Esso provides 15 points per liter, Mobil gas provides 35 points per liter.

I used to have a work vehicle that I filled with Mobil gas, on the company credit card, got approx. 30 dollars of free groceries from Loblaws every week because of this practice.
Which card gives 10% cash back at the moment?
TD , CIBC and Scotia all have one right now. It’s 10% cashback on purchases up to $2000 in the first three months.
I use CIBC Dividend card not only do I save on gas (.03 off a litre till you get 300l then .10 off one time and then it resets) but earn Cashback everywhere. Last yr I earned about 580 Cashback this yr I’m over 200 right now.
I bank with CIBC as I use my card I pay it off same day so never paid interest.
Note that your max yearly cash back for the 4% (gas and groceries), 2% and 1.5% categories is $800 (4% of $20,000). After $20,000 yearly spend, the 4% cash back ends, and is replaced with 0.5% on all purchases. In other words, if you spend on any of the other categories, you won’t get the $800, because you’ll hit $20,000 total spend before you hit $20,000 on gas and groceries.
I got a Rogers World Elite card, and use it for all purchases except gas and groceries, for 1.5% cash back. I use the cibc dividend card only for gas and groceries for 4% cash back.
CAA members save 3 cents per L at all shell stations. And they use air miles.
4. Drive Sensibly
Quick quickening and short explosions of speed can cost you a ton with regards to gas. Slow and reliable movement is constantly favored over aimless driving. Land Rovers, for example, can show signs of improvement mileage utilizing journey control. Practice smooth driving and you’ll certainly set aside some cash with improved gas mileage.
5. Time Your Trips to the Gas Station
Gas costs can ascend on Thursdays because of high odds of end of the week travel. To keep away from these expanded costs, top off the tank before Thursday or on significant occasions.
6. Utilize Your Smartphone to Find the Cheapest Gas Station
Your cell phone is for something other than perusing Facebook and Instagram. Use it to locate the least expensive gas in your general vicinity. Applications like AAA Triptik and GasBuddy will assist you with finding the closest and least expensive fuel. gas
Something I’ve noticed with the gas saving apps… many times the prices are wrong. I show up at a station, and end up refueling anyway, and then a few minutes later I see it has been put back to the “fake low price”.
I think owners are gaming the system in order to draw people in.
7. Get a Gas Rewards Card
Too few have a gas rewards card. It resembles not getting a prizes plan regardless of whether you’re a long standing customer. There are a great deal of sites out there that can acquaint you with bargains for fuel rewards. You can get free gas on the off chance that you gather enough focuses, so why not? Pursue that prizes card!
8. Try not to Leave Your Engine Idling for Very Long
Close off your motor in case you’re not going anyplace. You’re squandering gas, and you’re dirtying nature.
9. Deliberately Use Cards or Cash
money or credit
A few service stations charge a premium on the off chance that you pay with Visas, however some give you limits on them. Discover and use what you can to set aside cash.
10. Keep up Your Car
Keeping your vehicle kept up is the manner by which to get a good deal on gas over the long haul. In the event that you have a clunker or a vehicle that you treat severely, it will have awful mileage. Simply keeping your tires expanded can improve your gas mileage by 3.3%. So focus on your support.
11. Be Picky
Corner store
Quit heading off to the corner store near your home or the interstate so you can get it over with. This can cost you almost 15 pennies more for every gallon. Discover a corner store that has modest costs and stick with it.
11. Try not to Overload Your Car
over-burden vehicle
This is an easy decision, however it needs strengthening. In case you’re hauling around as long as you can remember in your vehicle, quit doing it. Clearly the heavier your vehicle gets the more gas it will require to cover a similar separation. Just keep the minimum necessities in your vehicle. Leave the rest at home.
This application gets you 40/cents per gallon money back at several gas stations. Average individuals are getting paid hundreds, and expert drivers are getting thousands with this application that gets you 40cents money back on each gallon of gas!”
12. Drive more slowly and think ahead and use motor braking.
The amount of time you win for speeding is so little compared to the amount of fuel you are going to save.
13. Plan out grocery trips for longer times. Instead of going a few times a week to pick up a couple things, go once every 2-3 weeks with a list of everything you’ll need for that timeframe.
14. Drive the smallest stick shift diesel available. Press in your clutch on downhills, especially long ones on the freeway. Play a game where you try to put as little foot on the gas.
15. Buy a more fuel efficient car. That makes the biggest difference.
16. Drive less. Combine trips. Carpool. Walk. Bicycle. Take public transit.
Do things (including many types of work) that can be done over a wire, over that wire, instead of driving to it. Drive a more fuel-efficient vehicle. If people would bother to think about when all of these might be possible, they would find that they generally are possible.
16. Limit discretionary driving.
I have a gas-powered SUV and paid nearly $60 to fill its tank last week. I no longer drive around town just for the hell of it—I have to be strategic. Instead of driving to Target or Walmart for household goods and groceries, I order these necessities for delivery via Amazon. If I do need to drive to one part of town, I hit all the shops in that area at once and act as if I won’t be back for weeks. Ultimately, I am driving with intent—every trip has a purpose.
17. Tyres
Find the Tyre pressure placard in your car and make sure your tyres are pumped up to the correct pressure.
Try and do this when you have driven the car for less than 5 minutes. hot air expands and will give a false reading if the tyres are hot. do it when it is cold. Do NOT pump them up to the max pressure listed on the side of the tyre.
Keeping your tire pressure perfect is not only a safety measure but also helps in Saving Fuel as the right amount of tire pressure will reduce the friction with the road.
Tips- Tire pressure check is free on every petrol pump, but it does not mean it’s useless. Make Use of It every time you can.
Actually, over-inflate your tires for best gas mileage.
The number on your door is the recommended pressure. The max pressure on the tire is the “do not exceed” number. Something in between is fine.
The drawback is that you’re going to wear out the middle of the tire quicker than the sides (because it’ll dome a bit from the higher pressure if you don’t have enough weight to force it flatter again). This might be noticeable after years.
But tires aren’t that expensive, and fuel is. You’ll pay off the small reduction in tire life with the bigger reduction in fuel use (and, especially if you’re in a pinch today, you could kind of consider it a deferred expense). And, it’s a small change you can always taper off again later.
A side effect will be a slightly harsher ride, and slightly less grip (not great for the winter).
Roughly speaking, 50% of your gas usage comes from rolling resistance in the tires, the other 50% from air resistance. At city speeds, tires and starts/stops make up most of your gas cost. Around 2/3, 3/4 of highway speeds is where air resistance takes over. Above 60mph/100kmph is where you really start to gobble fuel disproportionately (10% faster uses 33% more fuel).
Avoid where you have to use the brakes. Any time you use the brakes you’re wasting all the energy you had to put into accelerating the vehicle. In stop/go traffic, this is most of your fuel use. So instead of racing forward to fill gaps and then have to stop, just drive half the speed, steadily. If you see the light is red, get off the gas and coast, don’t accelerate up to it and then hit the gas. Careful you’re not blocking turning lanes by driving slower, just because you’re stopping at the lights doesn’t mean everyone behind you is.
In short… there’s no free lunch here. If there were ways to save money on gas, those would already be things we’re doing. All the little tips and tricks might add up to 20%, which is like… where gas prices were a month ago.
The only easy way to save money on gas is to drive less.
18. Lose weight.
Get rid of any excess stuff you have in your car. Every extra kilo costs money to haul around. Same goes for aerodynamics. those roof racks you never use? take them off!
19. Change your driving style.
So many people these days drive aggressively. stamping your foot to the floor whenever you accelerate is both unnecessary and burns far more fuel than using 50 or 75% throttle. there are other throttle positions than 100%!
Instead of speeding up to close any gap in front of you. leave it there and coast a bit. someone may change lanes, who cares? watch ahead, if cars start braking ahead, take your foot off the throttle early and coast a bit instead of riding the car in front of you constantly braking and accelerating.
20. Drive smoothly. it’s amazing how big of a difference driving style makes to fuel consumption.
21. Engine Air Filter
Make sure the engine air filter is clean, dirty air filters make for poor fuel consumption.
22. Premium Fuels
Only go for premium fuels if the car company suggests you to. Otherwise, you are just increasing the cost of fuel and increasing the overall running cost of your car. Well, it’s a myth that premium fuel will help you save more fuel and increase the mileage of your car It’s False.
Tips- Buy Normal Fuel, Premium fuel burns more and adds more price and Same less Fuel.
23. Cruise Control
Using cruise control on the highway will provide a smooth ride with a little bit of constant acceleration. Ultimately it will add to your mileage and save you a lot of fuel.
24. Race Peddle Control
If you keep a soft foot on the peddle you will always Save lots of Fuel. When we use a hard foot car consumes the maximum amount of fuel that needs to generate the power we want.
Tips – After attaining a speed of 70-80 try losing your foot maintaining the race paddle at the fixed position where the acceleration is almost zero.
25. Keep RPM Low
Higher RPM means higher fuel consumption and Lower RPM helps in Saving Fuel providing a safe feeling to every passenger in the car.
Tips- Remember you can only create a very little difference in time if you drive fast keeping your speed and RPM high. But you can’t save more than 5 Min as per the traffic on the roads these days. Keep it Low to Save Fuel.
26. Save Fuel by Driving Smart
Driving consciously and safely will always help in maintaining the mileage of a car and Save Fuel. Avoiding unnecessary fast pickups and jackrabbit stops will always help in saving fuel.
Tips – Easy and Safe driving will help in Saving Fuel and driving safety.
27. Overlooked button on your car may help save on gas
The ‘Air Recirculating’ button on your A/C might cool off your car faster and save you a little gas. On most cars, trucks, and SUVs the air recirculation button is easily identifiable, with its representing symbol of a half-circle inside of the outline of a vehicle. Many people say they’re aware of the button, but are not sure when it should be on or off.
Another function of this climate control system is to stop pollution and exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle. Having this button activated will also help to greatly reduce pollen when driving, which is a big positive if you suffer from outdoor allergens.
“If you don’t switch the air recirculation button on, then your car’s air conditioning will be constantly cooling warm air from outside your vehicle, and will have to work much harder, putting more stress on the blower and air compressor,” said Ruhl.
Another benefit to using the air recirculation feature is the money you could save on gas.
“Cars are usually more fuel-efficient when the air conditioner is set to recirculate interior air. This is because keeping the same air cool takes less energy than continuously cooling hot air from outside,” said Ruhl.
While the recirculation button is great for the summer months, it may be best to avoid it in the winter or when your windows become foggy.
“Anytime you’re using defrost, it’s best to not have that button on. Also, using it while you have your heater on isn’t going to do anything for you vehicle,” said Ruhl.
28. Your driving habits are a huge factor. Very slow accelerations and decelerations help dramatically. Coasting to that upcoming red light instead of keeping on the gas and braking. Chilling at 60 on cruise in the right lane vs accelerating between 65 and 75 passing people in the left. Things like that.
Also for most cars, above 55 its better to keep your windows up and use ac, below 55 better to do windows down and ac off. Varys by model due to aerodynamics, but 55 is good enough to give you an idea.
29. Don’t hard accelerate
Try to slow down in a more gentle manner if your lucky the light will go green before you stop
Be consistent with your speed if it’s 30 mph zone try not to go faster than that or get distracted to the point where your car starts slowing down
If it’s hot out keep the windows down, AC in older cars can make the car consume more gas, not sure how these newer cars are doing with that.
Make sure your tires have good tread, bald tires can spin out more and if the wear is uneven that can cause additional issues.
30. If you drive a SUV trade it for a Toyota Corolla
Scientifically proven that the wavelength of reflections on the beige tone is in the optimal bandwidth to reduce optical resistance, thus better fuel efficiency.
Check your engine air filter. Make sure it is clean, replace if necessary. Make sure your tires are filled to the recommended pressure.
Also change spark plugs at their recommended service life.
Also, if you car is over 160k km, good idea to replace the O2 sensors as they get slow. Replaced all four sensors in my car and my mileage went from 9.x L/100 km to the high 7’s.
What kind of car should you buy that saves on gas?
A Prius, or any type of gas/electric hybrid, or a smaller vehicle, like a Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, Chevy Malibu, Ford Focus, VW GTI or Rabbit.
But there is a direct correlation between How you drive, regardless of What you drive. I have a 1998 Chevy Silverado, with a 5.7L (350 cu in) V8, and I can get great MPG’s when I drive it sensibly, and don’t have a ton of unnecessary stuff/gear in the back, or even back seat.
Make sure the tires are set to the appropriate PSI. Always set them to the pressure setting on the inside of the drivers door. On that subject, changing the tire size or wheel size and sidewall thickness will also have a negative effect on MPG.
You would be surprised how much stuff a lot of people have laying in the back of their car, and if they would simply clean it out, they could save money.
Also, keeping your vehicle tuned up and the oil changed per the owners manual will also help keep the MPG high.
Not speeding away from every stop sign or stop light will also help.
Keeping your speed down on the freeway will help.
However, opting to roll the windows down instead of using the A/C to keep cool will actually create drag on the car and lower the efficiency. So crank the heat sucker up to high. Not only with rolling the windows up save fuel, it will also reduce noise and reduce fatigue, so you can drive more comfortably.
What burns more gas, accelerating as fast as possible to 60 mph (e.g. 10 seconds) or accelerating slowly (e.g. 30 seconds)?
Not long ago I had a ’16 Subaru WRX. Fast, turbo-charged all-wheel-drive car. Terrible gas mileage. It’s also heavy, roughly two tons.
One day, I did an experiment on the city streets. Rather than accelerate in a controlled manner and drive at a consistent pace, I put the gas pedal all the way down to reach about 15 mph over the speed limit, and then I put the car in neutral, and let it coast. The car would coast a full mile before it was going slow enough (5 to 10 mph below the speed limit) that I had to put it in gear and goose the throttle again full blast and bring it up to 15 mph over the speed limit.
In this simple test, the overall gas mileage skyrocketed. It went from about 25 mpg to more like 40 mpg. And yet I was ultimately going the speed limit on average, and kicking off my trips very quickly.
This led me to a realization. Yes, holding that gas pedal all the way down uses up a lot of gas. But what it also does is important: it brings you up to speed. What also uses up a lot of gas is simply cruising—not coasting, cruising. That’s where most of your gas is being spent, because your engine is expending gas, quite a bit of it, actually, just to keep up and maintain velocity.
And when you accelerate slowly, you’re effectively cruising, without being up to speed, yet with a little extra gas. That’s wasteful, because you’re going slow and still using up plenty of gas. Is it more wasteful than the explosion of rushing your car forward immediately? Actually, perhaps so, if you’re taking too long to do it.
Remember, just turning that engine using fuel uses up fuel. Accelerating quickly brings the car up to speed quickly—which brings the engine’s productivity to the maximum output quickly—which is not an infinite dump of fuel, it is limited to what the fuel line and injector and cylinder can mix with air and compress, which is measurable, and it’s actually not as far off from cruising fuel as people seem to think.

TIPS ON PUMPING GAS THAT WILL SAVE YOU $$$
1️⃣ Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening….your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.
2️⃣ A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.
3️⃣ When you’re filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. You should be pumping on low mode, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you’re getting less worth for your money.
4️⃣ One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL. The reason for this is the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.
5️⃣ Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up; most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.
6️⃣ Note: If the pump repeatedly shuts off early, it could be a sign of a problem with the vapor recovery system, such as a clogged carbon canister.”
How can You save gas when driving long distances?
1. First and foremost Maintain a steady speed.
2. Fill your tire pressure 1 or 2 psi more than the prescribed number.
3. Do not travel with your AC off, especially during long distance journey. With your AC off you will have to lower the car windows and if you are traveling at speed more than 60 miles per hour it is going to affect the aerodynamics of the car and this might affect the fuel consumption a bit.
4. Remove all unnecessary weight from the car.
5. Choose a well maintained road even if it is going to take you more time than a bad road.
6. Have your car checked with a mechanic before you travel.
Do automobiles get better fuel mileage with the A.C. on and windows up, or A.C. off, and windows down?
Under 70mph and your windows up, your AC will use more energy than if the windows were down and the AC off. As your cruising speed increases, the aerodynamic drag on the car increases to the point where having the windows down creates a greater load on the engine than the AC does. This only applies to modern cars which are generally quite aerodynamic. Having the windows up or down doesn’t really make any difference to vintage cars. Remember though, AC takes more power than you might suppose so on a long hot journey, driving with the AC off will improve mpg. Taking the AC equipment off altogether will make an even bigger difference – as much as 10%.
Does cruising in a car save on gas? How?
Since cruising involves maintaining the vehicle at a constant velocity, it requires minimum efforts (Power) from the engine.
The power required from the engine is used to nullify the declaration from frictional forces (air drag and road adhesion). Since less power is required from engine the ECU ensures minimum gas is used.
Can lowering your tailgate really save on gas?
No it’s a myth…in fact the now cancelled show MythBuster’s did an episode on it. Pretty legit test if I do say so, although if you have a truck with two gas tanks you could test it yourself as I have. The one thing that can help seems counterintuitive, which is add a little weight. Like around 100 pounds or so depending, and make sure it’s over or behind the rear axle in the bed. What this does is give the rear wheels a bit more traction and that increases your gass mileage a little. A trick I learned from my Grandpa as a curious little kid wondering why he always had a couple spares mounted to each side of the bed right up against the tailgate. Those old gas guzzlers need all the efficiency they could get.
Bonus: also works better in snow, ice, and slush…get some sand bags and throw them in the same spot behind the axle and you limit fishtailing/sliding in the winter. More weight than the hundred pounds, plus it has multiple uses. If you get stuck where the tires are spinning on the ice you can open up a sand bag and out the sand in front and behind the tire to help gain traction. Make sure to do both sides of the truck as you probably won’t have positraction. Lol…additionally if it’s not too cold you can pee on the ice around the tire. I have gotten many a people unstuck with a little sand and piss.

Can I keep driving on eco mode? How much does it save on gas?
Economy mode is useful on most conditions but be advised, that some engines need to be “ blown free” by using higher rpm snd full engine load in order to keep the exhaust/ turbo- system declogged. That applies especially to diesel- engines with egr- system. In “ grandfather”— drive mode only those will have need for extended overhaul way before resching estimated end of service- time. ( what absolutely nullifies all eventual gains from eco- mode
What are some ways to save on gas annually?
To save gas you should follow the instructions of the manufacturer of your car if your question refers to the gasoline that you spend to make your car run. If your question refers to the natural gas that you use at home to heat up food, water etc then the only recommendation is to watch for any leaks if you suspect that you are losing gas. Fixing those leaks by means of an experienced technician will resolve your problem. Coming back to your car, not over speeding, and not letting the engine on idle for long time in order to keep the air conditioner working or the heater in the Winter these are two important ways to reduce gasoline consumption.
Summary:
Looking to save a few cents per litre on gas? Here are a few tips and tricks that can help you do just that:
1. Check gas prices before you fill up. Many gas stations offer discounts for cash, so it’s worth checking beforehand to see if there’s a station nearby that offers a cheaper price.
2. Use coupons. Many gas stations offer coupons that can be used to save money at the pump. Simply present the coupon when you’re paying and you’ll automatically get a discount.
3. Shop around for gas cards. Some gas cards offer discounts of up to 5 cents per litre, so it’s worth doing some research to see if you could be saving even more money.
4. Drive less. This one is obvious, but the less you drive, the less gas you’ll need to purchase. So, if you can carpool, take public transportation, or walk/bike instead of driving, you’ll save yourself some money in the long run.
5. Keep your car well-maintained. A well-tuned engine can improve your fuel economy by up to 4%, so it’s worth getting your car checked out by a mechanic every
By following these tips, you can easily save money on gas without making major changes to your lifestyle.
Does getting a Tesla make financial sense in terms of cost savings on gas and maintenance?
With rising prices, what are smart ways to save money or good alternatives like horse and carriage to save on gas?
This is my plan for tackling the current inflationary environment in the United States:
- Limit discretionary driving. I have a gas-powered SUV and paid nearly $60 to fill its tank last week. I no longer drive around town just for the hell of it—I have to be strategic. Instead of driving to Target or Walmart for household goods and groceries, I order these necessities for delivery via Amazon. If I do need to drive to one part of town, I hit all the shops in that area at once and act as if I won’t be back for weeks. Ultimately, I am driving with intent—every trip has a purpose.
- Meal substitution. In my area of the U.S., beef is less expensive than chicken. Thus, I substitute beef for chicken and prepare meals like spaghetti, burgers, and chili. Also, my cost of groceries has risen faster than the cost of a Chipotle burrito, for instance, so I sometimes eat a Chipotle burrito instead of eating at home.
- Plan for higher utilities. My energy bill is much higher today than it was last year. Since I live in an apartment, each unit’s bill is decided by dividing the energy cost for the entire building by the number of occupied units. Thus, I have very little control over the cost of my monthly bill. I must prepare for this expense and not let it blindside me.
- Limit unnecessary consumption. Now is not the time to be frivolous with money. All nonessential consumption (i.e., online shoe shopping, going to the movies, etc.) is essentially placed on hold.
- Invest tactfully. With inflation running hot, the Federal Reserve likely hiking interest rates in the coming months, and macroeconomic and political uncertainty, the stock and crypto markets may fall further before rising once again. Having dry powder (i.e., cash) on hand to take advantage of the situation is not a bad idea. I’ve been building my cash position over the past couple of months, so I can buy assets when others are fearful and need/decide to sell. As a long-term investor, you want to buy into fear and weakness, and I believe we are in that environment.
How much money do you save on gas with a hybrid?
If you compare a small, light ICE vehicle, you won’t save anything but if you compare an ICE car of the same weight as an EV then you will save money, possibly as much as $10 every 200 miles.
How much money do you save on gas by paying cash instead of credit in the long-term?
Using a 10 cent per gal difference between cash & cc, that comes to about $28 extra per year to use my credit card for my mileage and average MPG. That’s about $2.33/month so not much at all. Then you need to take into account that I get 3% back using my credit card at the pump from my credit card rewards program. That comes to $29/year. Those were round number calculations I did though so we’ll just call it even.
Does cruise control actually save gas or is that a myth?
The cruise control itself does not save any gas compared to simply keeping your foot at the same position. However, what cruise control does tend to do, is influence the driving style of the human inside.
The whole point of the cruise control is that you don’t need to constantly control the throttle. And thus you will tend to want to avoid needing to do that while using it. At the most, you will want to disengage the cruise control, to reduce speed slowly when needed, and then re-engage when you can overtake.
The result is that you tend to start looking further ahead, a few cars further than the one directly in front of you. Coming up on a car, you will decide earlier if you can overtake, or if you lift the throttle. This is very positive for reducing fuel consumption.
Many drivers without cruise control will not lift until the last moment, and then often need to brake when they can’t overtake. This is disastrous for the fuel consumption.
There are some special situations where cruise control itself can help reducing fuel consumption. One of those is when using the highest gear at very low throttle. This tends to be the most fuel-efficient configuration, but with so little torque, it can be difficult to keep the speed constant. The cruise control can do that very well. If you can’t manage to drive comfortably at that speed yourself, but the cruise control can, then that is a case where the cruise control directly allows higher fuel efficiency.
Another is when your car doesn’t have a mid-console near your foot, and thus is it difficult to lean your foot against it, helping keep a steady position. In that case, driving without cruise control might lead to constant speed changes as well, and the cruise control could help smooth that. That will also improve fuel efficiency slightly.
But in general, anything the cruise control does, you can do as well… It’s is the driving style that improves fuel efficiency. Cruise control can stimulate a more relax driving style, and that helps. If you already were driving relaxed and smooth, then you’ll not notice any difference.

When I have little gas left in my car, is it better to drive fast or slow so that I can get the best distance out of the amount of gas left?
Look at all the other mileage techniques that other people have formulated over the years, they all apply. Basically:
- Accelerate firmly from a stop. Too slowly, and you waste time in low gears, which are inefficient. Too fast, your engine is burning more fuel than it needs to. 8 – 10 seconds to 40mph is good, get a feel for your car, maybe get a OBD sensor to monitor fuel usage directly (any car after 1990s has one, I think)
- Try to get to the top gear, and at lowest RPM. Engine spins the slowest for maximum distance. A little slower is usually ok, especially if the car has bad drag coefficients, or there’s a lot of stops. Accelerating to top gear only to brake for a stop light is a waste of fuel.
- Modern cars cut fuel when engine braking. Try to roll as far/long as possible without using the brakes and avoid idling. Braking early, then rolling is better than coming to a complete stop since idling is just a constant drain, and if the light goes green, you save kinetic energy. You can usually feel when the ECU starts fuel delivery again when the engine braking lessens, though forcing downshifts is not recommended due to
- Increased wear on a transmission which is more expensive than brake replacement
- the spurt of fuel needed to kick the RPMs up. Though it may be needed if you need every last drop. Try downshifting early, if needed.
Try not to use neutral when coasting since the engine is still running. Also, its generally illegal
4. coast up hill, accelerate downhill (where possible). Don’t roll down the hill backwards.
5. If in a Hybrid, try to coast at 0 throttle and 0 regen. Regen, while nice, is fundamentally inefficient due to multiple transformations of energy. At 0 throttle, the engine is off, and no fuel is used. Hybrids generally have low drag, so can go pretty far on flat ground.
6. Tailgating can save some fuel, but it isn’t really safe. A few car lengths of distance can still yield a bit, though don’t overspeed to do so.
7. Turn engine off if you’re gonna be stopped for long periods of time.
Is driving slow up on a hill(consume less fuel but takes longer) or fast(consume more fuel but takes less time) better choice for fuel saving ? The hill would be 1 km for reference.
The answer is matching the proper rev range to power to be most efficient.
The real world answer is that if it’s just a kilometer the difference is negligible
Engines are most efficient usually somewhere at the 1/3 to half of the RPM range and at decent load. So if you need to floor it to get on the hill on current gear, downshift, else just press pedal slightly stronger and keep the speed.
As long as you can engine brake downhill the speed doesn’t really matter, just keep the usual traffic speed.
In general accelerating just to slow down later is worse than just keeping steady pace, especially if there are brakes involved.
When accelerating in a car does it use more gasoline to accelerate rapidly as opposed to slowly?
That’s a good question, but not a simple one to answer.
A car is most efficient when in its highest gear. If you accelerate too slowly, you will spend too much time in the lower gears before you get into the highest gear. Therefore, accelerating excessively slowly is not the most economical technique. Thus, advise to accelerate slowly to save fuel is WRONG!
A few decades ago, BMW did some tests to determine the most economical way to drive their cars. Although that was before fuel injection became common, I’m sure that the rules have not changed very much. They found that for their cars, the most economical technique was to accelerate with a heavy foot (2/3 to 3/4 throttle) but upshift at only 2000 rpm. That works well for a manual transmission, but is generally impossible with an automatic transmission because it will upshift at a considerably higher speed if you use a heavy foot and, just as bad, delay locking the torque converter. So, with an automatic transmission, the most economical technique is probably to accelerate at a moderate rate, i.e., not too fast and not too slowly.
The rules may have changed slightly because of modern electronic fuel injection systems which control the fuel mixture better. They are less likely to deliver an excessively rich mixture at wide throttle openings which occur with a very heavy foot.
With an Otto-cycle engine (4-stroke, spark ignition), the throttle valve is an important source of inefficiency. The power required to suck in air against the vacuum created by the throttle valve wastes fuel. For that reason, an Otto-cycle engine is most efficient when the throttle valve is wide open, or nearly so, provided that the fuel system does not provide an excessively riche mixture under those conditions. That’s why it is most efficient to use a heavy foot and upshift at low speeds, but not at such low speeds that the engine knocks or doesn’t run smoothly since that could cause damage.
The most inefficient thing you can do is use a lower gear than necessary for the power you are using. So, if you delay upshifting until 3000 rpm when, with a heavier foot you could get the same power at 2000 rpm, you are wasting fuel. So, for fuel efficiency, you should upshift at the lowest possible speed that will provide the power you need, but not at such a low speed that the that the engine protests.
In a vehicle with an automatic transmission What burns more gas, accelerating as fast as possible to 60 mph or accelerating slowly?
In simplistic physics terms, it makes no difference. You create the same amount of kinetic energy either way – and theoretically, that means you must burn the same amount of fuel.
For an internal combustion engine with gears it gets complicated.
A conventional car engine has a range of RPM’s at which the engine operates most efficiently. At lower or higher RPM’s gas consumption is worse.
So the trick is to keep the car in that band.
With a manual gearbox – the best approach is to push hard on the pedal to get the RPM’s into the efficient range – then accelerate more smoothly to the top of that range – then downshift.
If your car has enough gears, you can arrange to stay in the efficient range for all but the initial acceleration in 1st gear.
However, with an automatic (and especially automatics with not many gears in their gearbox) – you have no direct control over that – so it becomes a matter of tricking the gearbox into doing what you want. With modern gearboxes, you’d hope that the manufacturer set the shift points for efficiency – but it depends on the car. For a sports car they probably optimized the shift pattern for best 0–60 time – so they’d keep the engine in the “power zone” of RPM’s rather than in the “efficiency zone”…for a family sedan, the reverse would be the case. Many cars have a “sport” button which essentially lets you choose between keeping the engine in the power band or the efficiency band.
But even on the “economy” setting, the software won’t be able to prevent you from demanding performance that drives it out of the economy range.
It also varies depending on the air temperature – when the air is cold, it’s more dense and the fuel management software can burn fuel in larger quantities than on hot days – and that may influence the decision.
There are other considerations too. If you accelerate and brake gently then it takes longer to get you where you’re going. This means that the air conditioner, radio, lights, computer(s), etc are running for longer…and that takes energy too.
On the other hand – if you continually red-line the engine, it’ll wear out faster and a worn out engine uses more gas than a good engine.
Honestly – the answer is horribly complicated – and it varies from car to car.
To Conclude:
Looking to save a few cents per litre on gas? Here are a few tips and tricks that can help you do just that:
1. Check gas prices before you fill up. Many gas stations offer discounts for cash, so it’s worth checking beforehand to see if there’s a station nearby that offers a cheaper price.

How can I make my car last 400.000 miles? By Steven Haddock
Well, this may or not be cost efficient. It might actually be cheaper to buy new cars every 100,000 miles or so. But here we go.
- Get a good vehicle. Modern pickup trucks and SUV’s are not good vehicles. Volvos are affordable and are well built. So are BMWs and Mercedes. Look at the van the American Pickers drive – it’s a Mercedes. I wouldn’t even rule out many American production cars.
- Change your oil as frequently as it says in the owner’s manual. And don’t scrimp. You don’t have to get ultra expensive synthetics, but get something more than the bare minimum.
- Do other automotive maintenance as frequently as it says in the owner’s manual. Car parts go bad. It’s not just tires either.
- Drive carefully. Accelerate and decelerate smoothly. Drive at or near the speed limit. My sister was using our parent’s old ’96 Saturn until about two years ago when some idiot t-boned her by running a stop sign.
- Speaking of Saturns, which were great in cold climates because they didn’t use a lot of metal, if you live anywhere they use road salt, keep the car as clean and rust-free as possible. Best to drive in Texas – Texas has a good climate for cars. They don’t know what road salt is in Texas.
- Park it in a garage. This is optional if you live somewhere with good car weather. Like Texas.
