Anyone know why there are so many more women in the 20-24 demographic than men? I was trying to corroborate a figure of the total student population in the city, and along the way, I ran into the 2011 demographic report. There were something like 15,000 more women than men in the 20-24 age group. Do Canadian women just like big cities more?
Thinking of planning a 1 - 2 month trip to Whistler and was wondering if there are any places to stay long term and what my best options for long term lodging would be.
Was also thinking about splitting up some of that time in Vancouver and am curious about travel to/from Whistler and Vancouver.
Thanks!!

Hi
Planning to spend a few days in Niagra and wish to visit the Outlet Shopping Centre on the US side of the falls. I am a UK citizen and wondered if anyone knew if I needed to apply for an ESTA
Thanks
My family and I have 3 weeks to spend in Italy and we need help on how to divide the 3 weeks to see the places in our wish list. Here is a sample of our itinerary: 3 full days Rome, 4 full days Amalfi Coast, 7 days Tuscany (how many days should we spend in Florence?) 3 days cinque Terre. We want a not too hectic vacation. Please help us!
We are planning a RV trip to BC this summer and want to go to Butchart Gardens. We will be taking a ferry from Anacortes, WA and want to make sure we will have enough time to see the gardens with travel time included. We have to small dogs that would be staying behind for the day or perhaps put into a kennel if we need more time. Would it be more economical and better to take our car or take a bus/cab or rent a car on the island? Can we do it in a day? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi, my husband, our 4 year old daughter and myself are thinking about a trip to west Canada (from Ireland). We teach so have July and most of August off work. Although we have loads of time, we would be doing it on a shoe string!! Would like to know what people think; should we a) just focus on Vancouver and Vancouver Island (b) focus on the Rockies © try to do both - although I don't think we could afford it all at once!
We really want to get the 'real Canada' outdoorsy feel and would be staying in hostels (hopefully there are child-friendly ones about!!) any advice/opinions on what we should/could do?
Hi, I will be driving from Madison Wisconsin to Niagara Falls in June and will be crossing the border at Sault Ste Marie. I would really appreciate some advice on the following: For an overnight stay which would you recommend, the usa or ontario side of the border? What route would you recommend for the onward journey? Is there a route that includes a car ferry crossing? 13 years ago I did a long drive around the great lakes and I remember taking a car ferry but cannot remember where from or where it arrived (across part of lake huron maybe?) I do remember really enjoying that ferry trip though and would love to find it again to enjoy with my children. I seem to recall spending a few hours on a lovely beach after the ferry crossing. Any clues and recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
I'm trying to maybe plan a short trip to New York City... I wanted to know if anyone had any experience in the area and would be able to help me in finding a CHEAPER but still NICE and CLEAN hotel around the Central Park area.
What are the best 10 attractions of Quebec City? Are they close to each other?
I am going to Eastern Canada in late September and will stay for 10 days. Where is the best place to see Northern Lights (e.g. Ontario and Quebec)? I heard that Northwest Canada had better views of Northern Light. I don't know if it is equally good in Eastern Canada. Any recommendation is much appreciated.
Ok, so I have searched through several of the threads for suggestions for this, and I have found some. In July, four of my friends and I are visiting Toronto. We are wondering if it is worth it to use the TTC pass? Or would it be better for us to go by Taxi? We will be staying near the airport, but we will definitely be checking out the city. We will be there for four nights, and five days.
Hi, I am visiting friends in Barrie for 3 nights and then I'm thinking of staying 1 night in Toronto before leaving for Niagara.
It will be December and I am wondering where's best to stay for just 1 night after a day sight seeing in Toronto?
Central but on a budget?
Any pointers on what to visit too? We are not into Museums or Galleries etc.
is there a shuttle bus that goes from the trains station in Buffalo ny to embassy suite in niagra falls
Hi, I am looking to visit Niagara (CA) for the day and then take a flight from Buffalo to NYC that night, how would we go about this without a car?
Is it OK to go just for the day? We will be travelling from Toronto that day. We could possibly stay 1 night and fly NYC the following morning but no point if nothing to do?
It'll be December so other than the actual looking at the Falls (doubt the boat trip will be on) is there anything else to do?
Can anyone give me some suggestions on these? Any odd shops that have unique pop culture gift items, vintage or modern -not the run of the mill travel souvenirs? Also, any cool boat rides to Vancover Island someone has taken? It doesn't have to be too long, like a cruise- just something about 20 Can dollars or fewer.
We're heading for Maine later this year, and since we'll be passing so close to Niagara Falls, I'd like to see it. We plan to get to the town of NF, stay for the night, and leave at 10 or 11 the next morning. What's the best way to use our time? Can we get to a good viewpoint at sunrise? Riding the boat can wait for another time - we just want to get a good look and take some pictures.
I have relatives in Toronto but dont want to spent the full 10 days there
Thinking of
3-4 days Toronto
3-4 days lakes area ? Lake Huron
2-3 days Niagara-on-lake do day trip to the falls
any suggestions on where to go in the lakes area, i have no idea what towns to go to or what is nice or what the region is called.
All must sees in Toronto?

I live in Toronto and on a fixed income. I am thinking of visiting relatives that live in and around Yarmouth this summer from sometime in late July/early August for between a week and a half to 2 weeks. I do not drive and would be looking to arrive in Halifax late morning/early afternoon hoping to be in Yarmouth no late then 6pm and when I come back to leave Yarmouth mid/late morning and hoping to arrive in Halifax mid afternoon. Since I am on a fixed income I am looking for hopefully for no more then 100. Is this possible and if so can anyone post any info I should know, etc. Thanxs in advance.

My chiropractor and his family are going on the Disney to Canada cruise (5 days from NY) in July. Since I spent over a month in Nova Scotia in the fall of 2010, he asked me for advice on where he could go in Halifax, when they are in port. He wasn't sure how many hours they have. Has anyone done this cruise? He has 5 children ranging in age from 10-18. I only spent 1 day in Halifax, as I spent the majority of my trip in Cape Breton. I suggested the Citadel as a good option that the parents, as well as the kids would enjoy. He mentioned they may also do some kayaking. Does anyone have other suggestions? Thanks!
Hi there, My Husband is heading into Halifax for a few days next month and I am on a mission for him to pick up some sashimi grade tuna and salmon for homemade sushi, as well as a few other ingredients...no japanese restos here in Central Nfld :( I found a website for the Fisherman's Market, and was wondering if that would be the place to go? Thanks!

Hiya. Flying into Halifax & staying the night on Sept 15. Want to visit the Maritime Museum, Alexander Keiths tour, Maxwell Plum, HMS Sackville, Sport Hall of Fame & the Citadel, if I can.

My girlfriend is a huge Reba McEntire fan and she's got the tickets for Reba's concert on Sept.26. I would like to surprise her with backstage passes for our anniversary because I know she'd love to meet Reba (she's like the biggest fan ever, all we ever listen to is Reba lol, nothing else is allowed), but I have no idea where to look for them. I'm willing to pay, of course, and I know there are about a dozen passes given away for every concert, but I need your help as to where I could get them? Do radio stations maybe give them in a competition, or should I look at the venue? Any help would be appreciated, it would be a great gift for our 3rd anniversary :). Thanks!

I will be travelling to Halifax on Easter weekend but can't find any tour companies that are in operation this time of the year. Guided city walking tours and other fantastic sights...Bay of Fundy, Lunnenberg, and many more
I'm wondering what the best way is to combine Halifax, Cape Breton and St. John's Newfoundland into one trip? I live in the USA and would be flying out of the Washington DC area. I wonder if it's possible to book a flight to St. John's that connects in Halifax, so that the Halifax stopover could be extended for several days to allow time to explore Nova Scotia/Cape Breton, before heading on to St. John's. I figure that I would only need a rental car to get from Halifax to Cape Breton. Ideas?
Can anyone tell me what the best shuttle service would be from Halifax International Airport to Kingsburg, NS? And what would the price be for two traveling together? Thank you.
I would like to travel by car to Europe and hoping that someone can give me some information on how to go by ferry from Halifax or any other part of Canada to Ireland, England, or Coast line of Europe or Scandanavia with my car. Any information will be very much appreciated.
We would like to go to a pub with live Irish music / or music of 60th, 70th. We are 50 + / 60 +. Are HALIFAX ALEHOUSE and THE LOWER DECK PUB the good place for people of our age, or most of the people there are young and the place is very noisy? Can you recommend some restaurants with live music?
My wife and I (seniors) have been to nearly 70 countries but have never been to the Maritime Provinces!! We plan to take a two-week group tour there this fall with Grand Circle Travel and, of course, Halifax is on the itinerary. I would have thought that late September would be ideal but, unfortunately, GCT has only two departure dates that do not include either a pre- or post-trip to Boston/Cape Cod, which we have already done several times before (I went to college in Boston). Those dates are Sept 8 and Oct 6. I know from past trips to Vermont and Boston that leaf peeping is not a guaranteed success but, statistically at least, which of those two dates do you think would be better. Or perhaps there are other considerations that supercede leaf peeping. Your responses would be most welcome and appreciated. Thanks, Dan & Ginny Mitchell Cedar Rapids, Iowa
We shall be in Halifax for two full days, 25 and 26 May. No car. We plan to visit the city one day, and the other day to take a day tour out of the city. However, I could not find a tour in May, most of them start in June. Any recommendation for a tour or how to spend the second day? We love architecture, nice views, museums
When we went to Peggy's Cove we also had a lobster dinner at a dinner around that area. I want to know the name and address so I can send the family the picture I took of them. Year 2007, Princes Cruise. Would you know of this place ? Thank you, Mary Berry
Can anyone advise me on the cheapest way to stop over and visit the maritimes for a week or two on the way back from visiting relatives in Vancouver late August September? Looking at multitrips with Air Canada is coming out at £1656.00!!!!!! If I fly London to Vancouver and break the return journey in Toronto it is only £665.00! Can you help with the best internal flights or other travel that will be cheaper and also would it be best to get to Halifax or St John's or any where else? Any travel advice much appreciated. We love to visit Canada and have been to BC several times but have never ventured into Eastern Canada.
Anyone from Halifax or in the area or stopping by want to meet up for a drink soon? It would be the 1st annual VT Halifax meet ! let me know John (JohnniOmani)
