how weird, I was just looking at this thread and was going to bump it cause no one helped you out.

Anyway, maybe what they say about Canadians is true...

Can't you guys just find all the really cool stuff you need online? Clearly, no one here will help. JK.

Canada is pretty big, maybe they don't live in the right places.

However, I've heard from 2 very different people that they have vacationed in Nova Scotia, and is not to be missed. Then I asked them why, cause it is cold and I hate that, and it seemed so random. They went on and on about the wondrous beauty and coolness, so then I visited a website about Nova Scotia, and it did look hella cool.
So. There. I tried to help.

Maybe you should go over the Falls in a barrel. You'd be my hero for life.

I’ll try and help you with a few suggestions. I know Newfoundland best but that’s probably too far North for your trip.

For something tranquil, it’s pretty nice around 1000 islands. If you want a couple of days to chill out in a really beautiful place – its worth a visit. Some of the smaller hotels are really nice and would make for a very romantic break!

If you’re driving between Ottawa and Toronto then you could go via Algonquin (spelling may be wrong). It’s a national park and beautiful to drive through and has an art gallery in the middle of it as I remember.

In Montreal, the jazz clubs are an obvious choice. If you like jazz I can send you some specific suggestions. I saw Cassandra Wilson in Montreal, one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to. I’ll never forget her version of Neil Young’s Harvest Moon.

In Ottawa and the local area there is loads of white water rafting. Terrifying but don’t miss it!

And finally Niagra. You have to go but parts of it are horribly commercialised. But if you get chance go to Niagra on the Lake – there are a number of wineries near there.

Anyway the Canadians may be able to suggest a few more things. I feel in the mood for some Joni Mitchell now………....

Stew

ps Quebec City is wonderful too.

Parts of it? Please, the only place more commercial is Vegas.

Maid of the Mist is cool (the boat takes you right to the foot of the falls) and the Cave of the Winds tour you can walk down wooden stairs to their base. You'll get very wet on either adventure, but it's tons of fun.
