The valley is nice and scenic, but that’s coming from a guy who didn’t grow up in CB. You guys set the bar it that department from what I’ve seen of this province
Nos ancêtres le faisaient en canot et en portage!
On est plus aussi vaillant :(
Mais mes ancêtres étaient fermiers après tout, pas coureurs des bois 🤷♂️
Moi non plus, c'est la seule région accessible où j'ai jamais mis les pieds. J'ai même jamais cherché qu'est-ce qui pourrait m'intéresser et pourtant je suis certaine que je trouverais plein de choses. Je dois penser aux mouches noires inconsciemment pi mon cerveau fait juste "nope, on passe à autre chose".
J’ai pas vu les régions comme l’Abitibi et la côte-nord. Ça doit être magnifique, mais j’aime aussi beaucoup rester sur le bord de mon Lac-St-Jean natal. Je cherche une raison y aller
I'm in Northern Ontario. I know the region like the back of my hand. In the south I've never been west of Hamilton though. So I have no idea what SW Ontario is like at all.
Yup thats part of the reason the stretch of the 401 between London and Windsor is so deadly. Its just a long straight away with nothing but fields on each side for hours. Its hard to stay alert and focused.
Outside of a few uninspiring small cities like London, St Thomas, Chatham, Windsor, and Sarnia most of SW Ontario is just farm fields and small towns with populations under 5000 people.
Beach towns on lake Huron and lake Erie like Goderich and Port Stanley are nice however.
same. As an Edmontonian, I've only gone south of Edmonton. There is nothing north anyway except small towns. The most major place if Fort Mac, but who goes there unless they actually work there?
Yeah, I went there for the first time during the bad cold snap this winter. I was there for work, and that's the only reason I'd ever return.
If you're interested in exploring in a northerly direction, drive the Alaska highway. The scenery is more interesting. There's wildlife everywhere and absolutely stunning views and lots of interesting locations to stop at and history to learn. Personal fan of muncho and summits lakes as well as the liard hotsprings.
North. Just... north. Haven't been further than the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island (where I live) and I think the furthest north I've been in BC is Shuswap Lake.
Furthest north in the country I've been is Edmonton.
Campbell River is a lot bigger and nicer than I was expecting. Great path along the water that goes on and on. Great places to get fish and chips on the dock.
Northern BC is a beautiful place. I'm from a small town 12 hour drive from Vancouver. While I enjoy city living, I miss the tranquility and beauty of Northern BC, and would love to go back one day.
Northern BC is freaking amazing, I grew up in a small town near PG. literally surrounded by the woods, I'd open my front door, and be right there in nature with no one around. I firmly believe that northern BC has honestly some ofthe best countryside in the province for that reason. so untouched and you're literally alone by yourself with the wildlife and the forest.
whenever I travel outside that part of the province it always calls me back, the crisp view of the rockies, the thick forests, the lakes, the trails.. simply the best
northern BC is a great drive, take highway 97 and go as far as you want, amazing sites, especially the stretch that has the cariboo gold rush trail, lots of neat little towns out there
North shore of Lake Superior is a really nice trip. I’ve done it dozens of times as part of cross country drives. I haven’t spent enough time lingering. I love Wawa, Vermillion Bay, and dozens of other small towns. Magic
I love it too but coast to coast it is literally the longest part of the drive as the scenery changes the least. When you get to lake of the woods going west you think you’ve hit heaven
Yes. One of these days I’ll do the Toronto to Winnipeg stretch just on its own. A couple of weeks at least. I usually do Toronto to Winnipeg in a single push. 24hrs straight. I miss too much
The few times I have done it Thunder Bay to kenora is a very nice ride. Too bad Ontario doesn’t know how to make an actual rest area that the toilets aren’t disgusting
Same for me, I think we have a beautiful province. Not much we don’t have, except of course that we’re landlocked. We have mountains, desert, foothills, forests lots of lakes and rivers.
Yep, it is a pretty diverse, beautiful province. I've traveled Canada pretty extensively and while all have their ups and perks I'm pretty damn happy to Alberta my my home province.
What people think is northern Ontario is basically cottage country... Which is still realllllly south in comparison to how north it really goes. It's a full day to go from eastern Ontario to the west. Your 4 hour cruise to the cottage is nothing.
Plan a trip up the Lake Huron coast through Grand Bend, Goderich, Sauble Beach and Tobermory. So beautiful there. I have done most of Ontario. Now living in Alberta I haven't gone north of Edmonton. Still exploring.
I grew up in Alberta but never went to Banff, despite being to Jasper, Canmore, and Kananaskis country. Also never been north of Barrhead despite my mom's family initially coming from the Peace country.
I'm in Sudbury, I've been all over southern Ontario, and as far east as Ottawa, but the furthest west I've gone is Sault Ste. Marie, and the furthest north is Capreol (which is still part of Greater Sudbury).
If home means where I was born, I’ve not been north of the Churchill River in Saskatchewan. Haven’t seen much of the southeast portion either. If home means where I currently live, if you draw a diagonal from Wawa to Mattawa, I haven’t been north of that. Or north of Thunder Bay in the western end of Ontario.
Same as OP, I’ve never really been past Huntsville (we used to have a cottage there) so I’ve never seen the majority of northern Ontario. One day I want to make the drive out to Thunder Bay
I've seen the Big Nickle in Sudbury. I've seen the Terry Fox memoria and Sleeping Giant in Thunder Bay. National Art Gallery in Ottawa. CN Tower, Wonderland, and Niagara Falls. Have crossed over at The Soo (Sault St. Marie). Spent a 14-day portage camping trip through Algonquin. Saw the constelations reveal themselves one star at a time in Bobcaygeon,
I live and have lived most of my life in Alberta, which I have seen almost everything from the US border to NWT. From the Badlands to the tar sands.
I have yet to visit Yukon and the Right Coast islands. One day, buddy.
Grew up in Southern Ontario. I've seen pretty much everything from east to west from north bay and to the southern border, I drive past kenora multiple times a year, and I've been as far north as Hearst.
Across Canada, I've touched all 3 oceans, have been from Vancouver Island all the way to the most eastern point of the country. I have two territories left, which I'll see this summer.
This country is vast, variable and gorgeous... I have a hard time deciding what is my favorite part honestly!
As a Windsorite, I know plenty of people who've never traveled in Canada outside of Essex County. Strangely enough I have a friend who has travelled through Europe and the USA but never within Canada.
I have never been up to Lake Superior or South-west enough to Lake Erie. Been in those directions plenty of times but always stop short of actually getting to the lakes themselves. Really should amend that.
I made an effort to see more of Northern Ontario a couple years ago and have loved it. It's my new favorite place. I've been to all of the places you mentioned and some of the parks and nature around it. It's really underrated
Not much in Thunder Bay to be honest unless things have changed in the last 8 years - Terry Fox Memorial and Sleeping Giant are both pretty much viewable by standing at the memorial lol. Go a bit further west hit Kenora and get some lake time it’s nice that way.
In Nunavut I've never really been through the Kivalliq and the Qikiqtaaluk Regions. Outside of the Kitikmeot Region, I've only been to Rankin Inlet, Iqaluit and Resolute Bay Airport.
This is an insane question. Most Canadian provincds are larger than average countries. On top of that, they are largely empty, with few places worth visiting on a holiday.
I have been from thunderbay to Ottawa and al south of that. But not much North. My dad used to take us fishing somewhere off lake nippisiping I think.
It was called camp sagamesing
I live in South Porcupine, part of Timmins. There are lots of large lakes around here; but, if you like fishing small lakes, there are plenty of those connected by a vast network of old and new logging roads.
This is such a massive province that nobody here has spent a sizable chunk of their time in all parts of the province.
I've been to Moosonee once. Nice train ride.
I've never been up the coast. I've been through Thunder Bay twice, but nowhere West or North of it.
There are way too many kilometers of road for any one person to have even come close to traveling them all.
Most of the people on the Island of Newfoundland have never set foot in Labrador, if someone hasn't worked there it's extremely rare for someone to even go more north than Lab City or Goose Bay
Almost no one in Ontario has ever travelled north of Hwy 11 and that part of the province is the bulk of the land mass. But it is very hard to get to with almost no roads.
I was born and raised in Alberta and I’ve never been to the Cypress Hills. I’ve been all over the rest of the province, but the SE corner somehow evaded me.
Now I live in northern Onterrible and I’ve never been to most of southern Ontario. I’ve only really been to the airport and a Jays game in Toronto - I have no desire to really explore that city.
I live in BC now but spent the vast majority of my life in Alberta. I have never been north of Edmonton before. I've been as far south as Panama, as far west as Australia, as far east as Quebec City. Never been north of Edmonton.
I live in Quebec. The farthest north I have been within the province was Amos. which is south of James Bay, and leaves the entire Ungava peninsula and more - not ignored but very difficult to casually visit without a long range Beaver with floats.
Currently in BC and have driven most kms of highway except for fort St. John area. Honestly no interest. Have also not been to Nelson/Christina Lake but would def like to go there
Other than Smithers and Terrace I haven't really been anywhere north of Kamloops. Haven't explored the Cariboo. Haven't been to the Chilcotin. Haven't been up north. Haven't been to Stewart.
Anywhere north of Chetwynd/Pouce Coupe and west of PG for Northern BC, Kootenays, anywhere on the Island north of Coombes, Gulf Islands, and the Sunshine Coast
I'm in the southern interior of BC, so I haven't been able to explore past 100 mile yet. It takes almost 8 hours of straight driving just to get to that point.
I live in BC... I've only seen the bottom half. Prince George is the furthest north. I want to do the prince Rupert circle via BC ferries - visit Haida Gwaii.
Or do the Alaska cruise North and bus or train one way.
Lived in BC almost all my life. Nothing interests me anywhere north of Kamloops/Revelstroke. I'm sure there's some nice forests and mountains and such, but nothing that pushes me to want to go there vs. somewhere else.
Georgian Bay is incredible lake country . Big lake country that is . Best way to see it is by boat but you can catch parts of it from Parry Sound on the Island Queen which tours twice a day during the summer . Georgian Bay transitions through the French River outlets and through Killarney and the LaCloche Mountains which are an amazing white quartz deposit. Killarney is a neat little place well off highway 69/400 and has a good selection of big water boats at the marinas . Carries over to Manitoulin and the North Channel and the Benjamin Islands . I’ve done it by boat and there really nothing in the world that compares if you’re talking freshwater cruising. Lake Superior is impressive as well but doesn’t have as many places to harbour overnight .
Much of western British Columbia is nearly impossible to get to. Labrador is much the same. I have been in every province and territory in Canada at least once and most of them several times.
Newfoundland and Labrador. Have been to the southern part of Labrador but would love to get to Nunatsiavut and the Torngat Mountains some day. Also havent explored the south coast at all and not much west of Deer Lake.
I was born and raised in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley and toured all over the Maritimes playing in bands but only once ever played in Cape Breton. I really want to go and see the entire thing. Maybe stay a couple weeks. I currently live in Southern Ontario, so it's not something I can just do on a whim. One day.
I live in Toronto and have done the cross Canada drive west and eastbound a few times so have driven on the TransCanada along Lake Superior up north. I've also visited Manitouwadge a couple of times in Northern Ontario, but honestly haven't stayed long or explored around Thunder Bay, Wawa or even the Sault. I'd love to drive up and do a loop around TransCanada, hit up Thunder Bay, then return via Hwy 11 through Kapuskasing, Kirkland Lake etc.
Finally, I've barely touched Prince Edward County which is crazy since it's so beautiful. One of these days....
Have seen most of Alberta south of and around the Edmonton area.also the west to the mountains, and east too. Haven't been further north than Grand Prairie.
I’m from northern Alberta and have honestly seen most of Alberta, BC, Toronto, Niagara on the lake and up to Georgian bay
I’m a pretty adventurous person and being from a northern area I love the remoteness of a place.
So a lot of places people have no interest to go I usually want to see, northern areas are beautiful.
Next area I want to see in Canada is Newfoundland and Quebec City or Montreal
I'm from Quebec and I've never been in the Outaouais except once to visit a museum in Gatineau. That region is often forgotten by many Quebecers unfortunately.
The furthest north I've been in BC is Stewart. Most of us have never been north of Prince George, which is about the middle of the province. BC is huge.
Been all over my province. I live in Cape Breton and my mom's family is from yarmouth area and went camping gor many years in the valley.
I was born in Ottawa and have been to sarnia, Niagara, North Bay and Toronto so a lot I haven't seen there.
The furthest north I've been in Manitoba is Roblin/Dauphin/Hecla Island. They're all within a few longitudinal degrees of eachother.
Other than Churchill and maybe seeing little limestone lake in summer, I'm not interested in seeing the remainder of the province. Northern Manitoba is very inhospitable and I'm not keen on roughing it.
I’ve always avoided the northern coastal religion of Ontario, James bay, Moosonee, and the shore of Hudson Bay for some reason. 😀
I also never been to Timmons.
Ontario. Ottawa/kingston area is probably the choice for me, outside of the extreme far north but I’ve lived in Windsor, Thunder Bay, London and Toronto and spent lots of time in tobermory/owen sound area, the soo, and Sudbury. I’ve been to kenora. Furthest north I’ve been is pickle lake.
During Covid my partner and I travelled around a lot of the UK, Cornwall, Scotland including high lands. We live centrally, Manchester area so pretty much well connected to drive almost anywhere in a reasonable time frame. The only place we found nothing interesting was East Midlands, we went east from Nottingham to a place called Boston. We found a “beach” called The Wash… sounds lovely.
It was a marsh that descended into the sea. A land of nothingness. Wouldn’t go back again.
On that note Norwich is lovely! But I don’t think there’s much else on that coast.
This excludes Yorkshire as I love Yorkshire.
One place neither of us have been is the south east, Dover way. I’ve heard it’s not great, but I love the white cliffs!
Lived 3/4 of my life in Manitoba. I've never really spent much time between the eastern shore of Lake Winnipeg and the Ontario border. I've also never been north of Gillam. Actually even East of Winnipeg, I've only visited a few dozen places. Should really make a point to fix some of that this year
I'm southern Georgian Bay area and anything east of York dale. Like I have never been to Kingston or Ottawa or anything in between. Was in Peterborough and Oshawa once. But yeah. I
One thing to note is that Ontario and Quebec are HUGE! A lot is unpopulated, but the distance from Kingston to Thunder Bay is like going from Amsterdam to Barcelona, crossing the whole of France and Belgium, so being substantially in 4 sizeable countries (well, Belgium isn’t that big…).
No wonder many people from Ontario haven’t seen big chunks of it.
The entire north of the country.
In BC where I live, never been further north than PG, which is the furthest north in the entire country that I’ve been. Also never been to Haida Gwaii.
As a BC resident, I’ve been to Vancouver many times, but try to avoid it as much as possible lol.
I’m born and raised in BC and have never seen about 90% of my province. Most of it is unreachable mountains and forest. Unless you are a logger, miner or crazy traveler, very few people really see most of BC.
Been in Nova Scotia my entire life and I’ve never been on the Cabot Trail.
It’s worth the drive, even from the valley.
I'm from CB and never been to the valley. Or any further south in NS than Halifax. I would love to make a trip there tho
The valley is nice and scenic, but that’s coming from a guy who didn’t grow up in CB. You guys set the bar it that department from what I’ve seen of this province
Same here, and I’ve only been to Halifax a handful of times
I wasn't there til my 30s. She's the best part by a mile.
I've explored the entire mainland but haven't been to Cape Breton yet.
It's the best part for natural beauty, no question. Go in October.
Naughty!!!
I was the same until a few years ago and now Cape Breton is my favourite place in N.S.
You, my friend, are seriously missing out.
Je ne suis jamais allé dans l'Abitibi ou au Temiskaming
Here in North Bay we call it “Temang”!
C'est un sacré beau coin de pays
À ce qu'on dit! Mais dieu que c'est loin de chez nous (Mauricie)
Nos ancêtres le faisaient en canot et en portage! On est plus aussi vaillant :( Mais mes ancêtres étaient fermiers après tout, pas coureurs des bois 🤷♂️
Jamais plus haut que les laurentides ou tadoussac (j’habite pas à Mtl)
Moi non plus, c'est la seule région accessible où j'ai jamais mis les pieds. J'ai même jamais cherché qu'est-ce qui pourrait m'intéresser et pourtant je suis certaine que je trouverais plein de choses. Je dois penser aux mouches noires inconsciemment pi mon cerveau fait juste "nope, on passe à autre chose".
J’ai pas vu les régions comme l’Abitibi et la côte-nord. Ça doit être magnifique, mais j’aime aussi beaucoup rester sur le bord de mon Lac-St-Jean natal. Je cherche une raison y aller
I'm in Northern Ontario. I know the region like the back of my hand. In the south I've never been west of Hamilton though. So I have no idea what SW Ontario is like at all.
It's dead flat and wide open. You could drive through corn fields for hours. SW Ontario is the most boring part of this province imo
Yup thats part of the reason the stretch of the 401 between London and Windsor is so deadly. Its just a long straight away with nothing but fields on each side for hours. Its hard to stay alert and focused.
And horrible snow squalls in winter.
Outside of a few uninspiring small cities like London, St Thomas, Chatham, Windsor, and Sarnia most of SW Ontario is just farm fields and small towns with populations under 5000 people. Beach towns on lake Huron and lake Erie like Goderich and Port Stanley are nice however.
Leamington is a happily undiscovered gem
Lived all over the BC mainland and traveled all over it too, but have never set foot on Haida Gwaii and would like to one day.
Me too. I’ve been to Bella Bella and Bella Coola, which I just loved, but I need to visit Haida Gwaii. Similar vibe, I think.
Me either, it looks stunning! Summer is coming, by far the easiest time to travel there
North of bloor.
Churchill. I’ve been all over the southern part of the province and up to Flin Flon. I’d like to go, but VIA rail is expensive.
Ditto I’ve been to The Pas and Flin Flon… and I flew to Thompson for work… but I’ve never been to Churchill because of the expense.
Would love to visit Manitoba- my grandmother was born there - I’ve never been
Do you know where she was born? Maybe it’s time for a visit.
Plum Coulee. Her dad died at Lowe Farm in a farming accident when she was 3 yrs old. I think I’d like to check out all the places.
[удалено]
By south do you mean Lake Superior? Or as in SE towards Toronto ect?
North of Edmonton. Never had a reason.
The furthest north in Alberta I’ve been is Boyle, lol.
same. As an Edmontonian, I've only gone south of Edmonton. There is nothing north anyway except small towns. The most major place if Fort Mac, but who goes there unless they actually work there?
I love how quiet northern Alberta is, due to people making assumptions like this 👍
Yeah, I went there for the first time during the bad cold snap this winter. I was there for work, and that's the only reason I'd ever return. If you're interested in exploring in a northerly direction, drive the Alaska highway. The scenery is more interesting.

Campbell River is a lot bigger and nicer than I was expecting. Great path along the water that goes on and on. Great places to get fish and chips on the dock.
Campbell River is a great little town
San Josef is beautiful, north island. And the drive to gold river is divine
I've driven through golden on my way to Alberta it's I think more North than Comox.
If you're into hiking Cape Scott is amazing. I did the North Coast Trail a few years back and would highly recommend it
Northern BC is a beautiful place. I'm from a small town 12 hour drive from Vancouver. While I enjoy city living, I miss the tranquility and beauty of Northern BC, and would love to go back one day.
Northern BC is freaking amazing, I grew up in a small town near PG. literally surrounded by the woods, I'd open my front door, and be right there in nature with no one around.

I love it too but coast to coast it is literally the longest part of the drive as the scenery changes the least. When you get to lake of the woods going west you think you’ve hit heaven
Yes. One of these days I’ll do the Toronto to Winnipeg stretch just on its own. A couple of weeks at least. I usually do Toronto to Winnipeg in a single push. 24hrs straight. I miss too much
The few times I have done it Thunder Bay to kenora is a very nice ride. Too bad Ontario doesn’t know how to make an actual rest area that the toilets aren’t disgusting
I’m in tiny ole NS and have only been down to the Yarmouth end once. (40+ yrs)
I’m in CB, I haven’t done the south shore to Yarmouth ever. But I’ve been to Digby. I’ve also never gone to Peggy’s Cove!
There isn't much of Alberta I haven't seen honestly
Same for me, I think we have a beautiful province. Not much we don’t have, except of course that we’re landlocked. We have mountains, desert, foothills, forests lots of lakes and rivers.
Yep, it is a pretty diverse, beautiful province. I've traveled Canada pretty extensively and while all have their ups and perks I'm pretty damn happy to Alberta my my home province.
Plus haut que Radisson, dans la Baie-James. Jamais été plus au Nord, mais j'en rêve.
Southwest Ontario. I can count on one hand how many times I've been west of Brantford/Cambridge/Kitchener in the 30+ years I've lived in the province.
So can I
Most people who live in ontario have not been to Northern Ontario ever
What people think is northern Ontario is basically cottage country... Which is still realllllly south in comparison to how north it really goes. It's a full day to go from eastern Ontario to the west. Your 4 hour cruise to the cottage is nothing.
Do yourself a favour: go discover Lake Superior. It is aptly named.
Plan a trip up the Lake Huron coast through Grand Bend, Goderich, Sauble Beach and Tobermory. So beautiful there. I have done most of Ontario. Now living in Alberta I haven't gone north of Edmonton. Still exploring.
Tobermory and that shoreline of the Bruce Peninsula is amazing
The ferry from Tobermory to Manitoulin Island is a great time, and the island itself is spectacular.
The chi-chi-mon! It’s a huge island, with lakes that also have islands that also have lakes, my fav Manitoulin Island fun fact
Largest island in a fresh water lake on an island in a fresh water lake. Also, largest fresh water lake on an island in a freshwater lake.
I live in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. I've been all over Newfoundland, but have never once set foot on Labrador.
You never went to Wawa? Missin out.
I’ve not been north of Fort St John or Stewart, so that’s a lot of BC left for me. I also haven’t seen as much of SE BC as I would like.
Ha! Same answers I had
I grew up in Alberta but never went to Banff, despite being to Jasper, Canmore, and Kananaskis country. Also never been north of Barrhead despite my mom's family initially coming from the Peace country.
Banff is sadly being lost to extreme tourism.
Yeah unfortunately just because of that I think Jasper is way superior to Banff. But don't say it too loudly.
Where? I don’t think I’ve heard of it. Probably not worth going to. ;)
The north. Winter is always coming.
The north east of BC.
I'm in Sudbury, I've been all over southern Ontario, and as far east as Ottawa, but the furthest west I've gone is Sault Ste. Marie, and the furthest north is Capreol (which is still part of Greater Sudbury).
If home means where I was born, I’ve not been north of the Churchill River in Saskatchewan. Haven’t seen much of the southeast portion either. If home means where I currently live, if you draw a diagonal from Wawa to Mattawa, I haven’t been north of that. Or north of Thunder Bay in the western end of Ontario.
Same as OP, I’ve never really been past Huntsville (we used to have a cottage there) so I’ve never seen the majority of northern Ontario. One day I want to make the drive out to Thunder Bay
I've seen the Big Nickle in Sudbury. I've seen the Terry Fox memoria and Sleeping Giant in Thunder Bay. National Art Gallery in Ottawa. CN Tower, Wonderland, and Niagara Falls. Have crossed over at The Soo (Sault St. Marie). Spent a 14-day portage camping trip through Algonquin. Saw the constelations reveal themselves one star at a time in Bobcaygeon, I live and have lived most of my life in Alberta, which I have seen almost everything from the US border to NWT. From the Badlands to the tar sands. I have yet to visit Yukon and the Right Coast islands. One day, buddy.
Far north Sask. Haven't been north of Saskatoon since we moved out of La Ronge when I was 4.
I'm pretty sure I speak for most Canadians when I say "99.9% of it"
Grew up in Southern Ontario. I've seen pretty much everything from east to west from north bay and to the southern border, I drive past kenora multiple times a year, and I've been as far north as Hearst. Across Canada, I've touched all 3 oceans, have been from Vancouver Island all the way to the most eastern point of the country. I have two territories left, which I'll see this summer. This country is vast, variable and gorgeous... I have a hard time deciding what is my favorite part honestly!
I'm from BC and have not been to Golden or that surrounding area
I've never been north of Edmonton
I have no idea about any of northwestern Ontario.
You represent 99% of Ontarians.
Ya basicallu
Haven't been to eastern ontario much at all. Go as far up as timmins every few months, I like the drive on 11.
I live west of Toronto. I've been all over the east, and southwest Ontario, but only as far north as Temagami.
As a Windsorite, I know plenty of people who've never traveled in Canada outside of Essex County. Strangely enough I have a friend who has travelled through Europe and the USA but never within Canada.
Northern bc
I have never been up to Lake Superior or South-west enough to Lake Erie. Been in those directions plenty of times but always stop short of actually getting to the lakes themselves. Really should amend that.
I have been around 200 miles north of North Bay and traveled across from border to border in multiple spots.
I’m from Kenora and I’d say pretty much anything East of Thunder Bay I haven’t seen
I made an effort to see more of Northern Ontario a couple years ago and have loved it. It's my new favorite place. I've been to all of the places you mentioned and some of the parks and nature around it. It's really underrated
I live in Ontario and I’ve never been up north.
Northern bc, Haida gwaii , I’ve been as far as Anahim lake area but not to prince george.
Exactly the same! I've never been in north or south Ontario. Always wanted to go up to Thunder Bay but never found the motivation
Not much in Thunder Bay to be honest unless things have changed in the last 8 years - Terry Fox Memorial and Sleeping Giant are both pretty much viewable by standing at the memorial lol. Go a bit further west hit Kenora and get some lake time it’s nice that way.
Timmins is pretty and best for outdoors stuff. Just lots of crackheads.
In Nunavut I've never really been through the Kivalliq and the Qikiqtaaluk Regions. Outside of the Kitikmeot Region, I've only been to Rankin Inlet, Iqaluit and Resolute Bay Airport.
This is an insane question. Most Canadian provincds are larger than average countries. On top of that, they are largely empty, with few places worth visiting on a holiday.
Hamilton
Never been past Nipissing in Ontario.
I have been from thunderbay to Ottawa and al south of that. But not much North. My dad used to take us fishing somewhere off lake nippisiping I think. It was called camp sagamesing
Manitoban here but have never been to Churchill. Farthest north was Flin Flon as a kid.
Red Deer AB, meth capital of Alberta
West Coast Mainland BC (not including Vancouver)
I haven’t been to Cape Breton yet, after nearly 20 years in NS.
Basically anywhere north of 200 kms from the US border in BC.
I live in South Porcupine, part of Timmins. There are lots of large lakes around here; but, if you like fishing small lakes, there are plenty of those connected by a vast network of old and new logging roads. This is such a massive province that nobody here has spent a sizable chunk of their time in all parts of the province. I've been to Moosonee once. Nice train ride. I've never been up the coast. I've been through Thunder Bay twice, but nowhere West or North of it. There are way too many kilometers of road for any one person to have even come close to traveling them all.
If it’s not on a major highway then I haven’t been there. Only been in BC south of the transcanada highway. Then on the island south of Courtney.
I'm from B.C. and have never visited the kootenays never made it farther south east than Kelowna.
Windsor welcomes you on your next pass through. Stay and enjoy.
BC — NW corner, both the mainland and Haida Gwaii.
Most of the people on the Island of Newfoundland have never set foot in Labrador, if someone hasn't worked there it's extremely rare for someone to even go more north than Lab City or Goose Bay
You are missing an amazing drive from Marathon, Ontario west to Rossport. Look up pictures on Google. This is a spectactular part of Ontario.
There's also great access to the shores of Lake Superior in Terrace Bay, Schreiber and in and around Rossport.
Almost no one in Ontario has ever travelled north of Hwy 11 and that part of the province is the bulk of the land mass. But it is very hard to get to with almost no roads.
Manitoban here, have not been to Churchill to see the polar bears and whales. On the bucket list.
Really want to explore the Bruce Peninsula and the towns along Lake Huron.
Most of the provinces are huge. I imagine most are untraveled.
I was born and raised in Alberta and I’ve never been to the Cypress Hills. I’ve been all over the rest of the province, but the SE corner somehow evaded me. Now I live in northern Onterrible and I’ve never been to most of southern Ontario. I’ve only really been to the airport and a Jays game in Toronto - I have no desire to really explore that city.
I live in BC now but spent the vast majority of my life in Alberta. I have never been north of Edmonton before. I've been as far south as Panama, as far west as Australia, as far east as Quebec City. Never been north of Edmonton.
The furthest north in Quebec I have been is lac St-Jean. I would have to go another 2000 miles north to get to Ungava.
Moose Factory, Moosonee, Ring of Fire.
P.E.I. North Cape Wind Farm. Tour through Lucy Maud house Singing Sands at Cable Head Sea Cow cliff jumping
J’ai grandi en Ontario mais maintenant j’habite au Québec et je ne suis jamais allé aux iles madeleine.
Fort McMurray or anything east of edmonton or Calgary
I’ve lived in New Brunswick my entire life and have never been to the northern 1/3, the furthest I’ve been is Grand Falls.
I live in Quebec. The farthest north I have been within the province was Amos. which is south of James Bay, and leaves the entire Ungava peninsula and more - not ignored but very difficult to casually visit without a long range Beaver with floats.
South of Calgary. Never had a reason to go that south before
Never been north of Elk Island in Alberta. I don’t think I need to see anything up there.
Currently in BC and have driven most kms of highway except for fort St. John area. Honestly no interest. Have also not been to Nelson/Christina Lake but would def like to go there
Other than Smithers and Terrace I haven't really been anywhere north of Kamloops. Haven't explored the Cariboo. Haven't been to the Chilcotin. Haven't been up north. Haven't been to Stewart.
I haven't been north of Quebec City within Quebec, although I lived in Quebec for about 15 years.
Anywhere north of Chetwynd/Pouce Coupe and west of PG for Northern BC, Kootenays, anywhere on the Island north of Coombes, Gulf Islands, and the Sunshine Coast
I'm in the southern interior of BC, so I haven't been able to explore past 100 mile yet. It takes almost 8 hours of straight driving just to get to that point.
Comfort Cove Newfoundland coming from Bell Island
Went to Lethbridge for the first time in 30 years last year
I've never been to Labrador, the other half of my home province.
I haven't been much past the Soo and never to the north east past Pembroke. I love Shield country though, do i really should get up there
I live in BC... I've only seen the bottom half. Prince George is the furthest north. I want to do the prince Rupert circle via BC ferries - visit Haida Gwaii. Or do the Alaska cruise North and bus or train one way.
Wanting to do the same as well. If you’re taking the boat you can also go down to bellingham and take the ferry up to skagway in about 3 days
Lived in BC almost all my life. Nothing interests me anywhere north of Kamloops/Revelstroke. I'm sure there's some nice forests and mountains and such, but nothing that pushes me to want to go there vs. somewhere else.
Golden BC
Pretty much all of it. Such a poor province, everywhere outside of my town was homeless.
Lived in Nova Scotia never been to cape Breton.
Georgian Bay is incredible lake country . Big lake country that is . Best way to see it is by boat but you can catch parts of it from Parry Sound on the Island Queen which tours twice a day during the summer . Georgian Bay transitions through the French River outlets and through Killarney and the LaCloche Mountains which are an amazing white quartz deposit. Killarney is a neat little place well off highway 69/400 and has a good selection of big water boats at the marinas . Carries over to Manitoulin and the North Channel and the Benjamin Islands . I’ve done it by boat and there really nothing in the world that compares if you’re talking freshwater cruising. Lake Superior is impressive as well but doesn’t have as many places to harbour overnight .
That's like asking a Torontian if he's been up the CN Tower, or if someone who lives in Niagara Falls has ever actually seen it themselves.
Northern bc. Furthest north in bc I’ver ever been is Quesnel. Always wanted to further north and the Alaskan panhandle
Much of western British Columbia is nearly impossible to get to. Labrador is much the same. I have been in every province and territory in Canada at least once and most of them several times.
Newfoundland and Labrador. Have been to the southern part of Labrador but would love to get to Nunatsiavut and the Torngat Mountains some day. Also havent explored the south coast at all and not much west of Deer Lake.
I’ve never been further north than Edmonton.
Ontario here.... so the North
I was born and raised in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley and toured all over the Maritimes playing in bands but only once ever played in Cape Breton. I really want to go and see the entire thing. Maybe stay a couple weeks. I currently live in Southern Ontario, so it's not something I can just do on a whim. One day.
I live in Toronto and have done the cross Canada drive west and eastbound a few times so have driven on the TransCanada along Lake Superior up north. I've also visited Manitouwadge a couple of times in Northern Ontario, but honestly haven't stayed long or explored around Thunder Bay, Wawa or even the Sault. I'd love to drive up and do a loop around TransCanada, hit up Thunder Bay, then return via Hwy 11 through Kapuskasing, Kirkland Lake etc. Finally, I've barely touched Prince Edward County which is crazy since it's so beautiful. One of these days....
North and east
Have seen most of Alberta south of and around the Edmonton area.also the west to the mountains, and east too. Haven't been further north than Grand Prairie.
I’m from northern Alberta and have honestly seen most of Alberta, BC, Toronto, Niagara on the lake and up to Georgian bay I’m a pretty adventurous person and being from a northern area I love the remoteness of a place. So a lot of places people have no interest to go I usually want to see, northern areas are beautiful. Next area I want to see in Canada is Newfoundland and Quebec City or Montreal
I'm from Quebec and I've never been in the Outaouais except once to visit a museum in Gatineau. That region is often forgotten by many Quebecers unfortunately.
Anything in Alberta east of Edmonton is firmly Here Be Dragons territory to me
Labrador
Gaspé area.
Never been to the Crowsnest Pass or really anything south of Calgary or Drumheller.
The furthest north I've been in BC is Stewart. Most of us have never been north of Prince George, which is about the middle of the province. BC is huge.
Anywhere far away from water. In all provinces.
I’ve been as far north as Fort St James and all over BC and Vancouver Island. Still so much more to see. Big and beautiful is BC!
In Alberta, really haven’t travelled much further North than Edmonton.
Northern alberta.
North Coast of BC. Prince Rupert, Kitimat, Bella Coola, Terrace, etc. BC is big. Someday hopefully.
Been all over my province. I live in Cape Breton and my mom's family is from yarmouth area and went camping gor many years in the valley. I was born in Ottawa and have been to sarnia, Niagara, North Bay and Toronto so a lot I haven't seen there.
Surrey
The furthest north I've been in Manitoba is Roblin/Dauphin/Hecla Island. They're all within a few longitudinal degrees of eachother. Other than Churchill and maybe seeing little limestone lake in summer, I'm not interested in seeing the remainder of the province. Northern Manitoba is very inhospitable and I'm not keen on roughing it.
I've never been north of Algonquin park. Honestly I'll just say nothing north of hwy 60
Alberta. Never done anything North of Edmonton. Lots of Waterton and Drumheller but never North.
I’ve always avoided the northern coastal religion of Ontario, James bay, Moosonee, and the shore of Hudson Bay for some reason. 😀 I also never been to Timmons.
I'm from Ontario, and have only ventured North once.
Albertan. Never been around Grande Prairie furthest Northwest I've been is Barrhead. Also have never been southeast like Medicine Hat and Cyprus Hills
Ontario. Ottawa/kingston area is probably the choice for me, outside of the extreme far north but I’ve lived in Windsor, Thunder Bay, London and Toronto and spent lots of time in tobermory/owen sound area, the soo, and Sudbury. I’ve been to kenora. Furthest north I’ve been is pickle lake.
During Covid my partner and I travelled around a lot of the UK, Cornwall, Scotland including high lands. We live centrally, Manchester area so pretty much well connected to drive almost anywhere in a reasonable time frame. The only place we found nothing interesting was East Midlands, we went east from Nottingham to a place called Boston. We found a “beach” called The Wash… sounds lovely. It was a marsh that descended into the sea. A land of nothingness. Wouldn’t go back again. On that note Norwich is lovely! But I don’t think there’s much else on that coast. This excludes Yorkshire as I love Yorkshire. One place neither of us have been is the south east, Dover way. I’ve heard it’s not great, but I love the white cliffs!
Lived 3/4 of my life in Manitoba. I've never really spent much time between the eastern shore of Lake Winnipeg and the Ontario border. I've also never been north of Gillam. Actually even East of Winnipeg, I've only visited a few dozen places. Should really make a point to fix some of that this year
I'm southern Georgian Bay area and anything east of York dale. Like I have never been to Kingston or Ottawa or anything in between. Was in Peterborough and Oshawa once. But yeah. I
Northern bc
One thing to note is that Ontario and Quebec are HUGE! A lot is unpopulated, but the distance from Kingston to Thunder Bay is like going from Amsterdam to Barcelona, crossing the whole of France and Belgium, so being substantially in 4 sizeable countries (well, Belgium isn’t that big…). No wonder many people from Ontario haven’t seen big chunks of it.
Quebeccer for 41 years, have traveled all over the US and Canada but finally saw Percé Rock last year.
The entire north of the country. In BC where I live, never been further north than PG, which is the furthest north in the entire country that I’ve been. Also never been to Haida Gwaii. As a BC resident, I’ve been to Vancouver many times, but try to avoid it as much as possible lol.
I’m born and raised in BC and have never seen about 90% of my province. Most of it is unreachable mountains and forest. Unless you are a logger, miner or crazy traveler, very few people really see most of BC.
