Ontario – Thunder Bay – Yours To Discover


This week the Travel Show visits Thunder Bay and Ontario's northern region. Enjoy the incredible lakeshore scenery of Lake Superior. Last year on location I discovered the harmony of wide open green spaces, parks and wilderness, yet a major urban centre with all the amenities of a metropolitan city.

Thunder Bay's spectacular setting, nestled on the shores of Lake Superior has Sleeping Giant and Kakabeka Falls Provincial Parks right on the doorstep. Discover history at Fort William Historical Park plus excellent dining, delightful galleries and museums. A city with deeply rooted European and Aboriginal cultures presents visitors with an exciting and educational adventure.

Northern Ontario, encompassing Thunder Bay and its surrounding region delivers incredible fishing and hunting getaways plus outstanding Canadian First Nations Cultural experiences.

From Hudson Bay's polar bears to Pt. Pelee's butterflies, Ontario's incredible diversity makes it the Canadian province to explore and re-explore. Try paddling, kayaking, camping, hiking or snow-shoeing in Ontario's 280 provincial parks. Eat, drink and be merry in Toronto's restaurants and nightclubs. Sample vintages at Niagara's nearby wineries. Get wowed with Ottawa's pomp and ceremony, and throughout Ontario experience world renowned theatre, literary, music and film festivals that wow North America's cultural scene all year round.

This year arts and architecture dominate the urban scene. Sample haut urban hotels and fine country inns, First Nations retreats and first class spas. Savour Ontario's culinary tours. Tune into North America's best range of performing arts festivals. Join in Summer celebrations, Fall fairs and Winter festivities celebrating wine & food, the arts, Ontarians' cultures, plus outdoor adventures featuring some of the most spectacular wilderness in the world.
