IN REVIEW: Exploring Canada's Hidden Gems

from CanCon · host Jordan Heath-Rawlings, Laura Palmer

Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be revisiting a couple of our previous episodes—beginning with a trip through some of Canada's least-known but most worthy places to visit if you've still got some time to explore this summer:  This summer, given ... everything going on down there, Canadians are more interested in exploring their own backyard than traveling to the United States. And since we've spent four months exploring everything about this country we need to fix, we wanted to look around at everything we don't. No matter where you live, this episode will give you some incredible ideas for your next getaway. Bestselling author Robin Esrock (The Great Canadian Bucket List) takes us on a tour from coast to coast to coast, starting in the North, then moving from West to East. There are so many beautiful, meaningful, fun and just plain weird places in this country that we thought we'd try to celebrate them all. Later, Esrock shares travel tips for everyone from those with the money for a cross-country train ride to those who need to stick closer to home, and their budget. Feedback from listeners is so, so welcome. If you have something to say, email us: [email protected].
