Best Ontario Travel
Professional travel writer Carolyn B. Heller shares the best ways to experience all that Ontario has to offer, from scuba diving shipwrecks in the Great Lakes to dining on contemporary fare at Toronto's hottest restaurants. She recalls spending family holidays exploring the Thousand Islands, touring Canada's tomato capital, and cruising under the spray at Niagara Falls. After moving to Canada in 2003, Carolyn began scouting out Toronto's neighborhoods, taking in theater festivals at Stratford and Niagara-on-the-Lake, and discovering Ontario’s outdoors from the rocky shores of Bruce Peninsula to the pink cliffs of Killarney and the lakes and trails in Algonquin Provincial Park.

"We mainly used the portion for NW Ontario (north side of Lake Superior) which is covered in a somewhat modest fashion, BUT... we found that the motels, restaurants, sights that were recommended in the book were indeed consistently excellent."
"To the author's credit, Ontario is a huge geographic area, and not everything can be covered in detail, without making the book too long."
"Just completed a trip to northern Ontario and found this book to be very helpful."
"This is particularly good for planning trips in lower Ontario -- because there isn't much on North Eastern ontario at all...It does omit some important things (like the Stratford Ontario section is good at describing downtown, but omits some of the larger and more famous resort-type hotels and motels)..."
"Will be a good source for our trip to Canada."

"The way the book was written was really interesting because the tone of the author was light and it complements the delivery of the information, making it easier to ingest of all the things that are needed to get started with an investment. Despite the fact that I am not Canadian, I still found this very helpful since the information that the author had presented in the book may be applied to any situation."
"Reading the author’s thoughts about the importance of financial knowledge and our relative confusion of how it all works, you begin to share his confusion as to why this is not taught in school. This in spite of the fact that, as the author points out, young people can receive credit card offers that may trap them into a lifetime of debt."
"Total Financial Independence: 9 Canadian Financial Myths Debunked: learn the myths and realities of the money game so your money works hard, not you! by Jamal Khan for me is a five star read. The chapters are concise, fast and well edited."
"This should be compulsory reading in schools but as Jamal Khan points out, this would defeat the object of a system that educates its population to maintain it through what it specifically does and does not teach."

Montgomery's inspiration for Green Gables Confederation Bridge Cape Breton Ceilidhs Cabot Trail Fortress of Louisbourg Glenora Distillery Halifax Explosion memorial sites Final resting place of the Titanic victims and more. When I reached my thirties, I read a book that highlighted Cape Breton Island and the vibrant fiddle tradition. Music and history inspire most of her travels, and Marie loves going to see the Dropkick Murphys at different venues each year.Marie is usually found with her nose in a book or writing something down. She wrote her first book, Breaking the Chains of Silence , hoping to raise awareness of child sexual abuse in our communities and what we can do about it. Marie loves a great road trip, busker musicians in the subway, the sound of waves crashing on the shoreline, and pepperoni pizza with extra banana peppers on top.

Her checklists impressed me the most. Have you thought of letting your credit card company know that you are going to travel in a certain area and during a certain time, so your credit card isn't suddenly blocked because the charges look fraudulent?"
"Marie curbed her concerns and drove from her Pennsylvania home to explore the beautiful Maritime provinces of Canada -- New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia."
"I have got to go back one day and see/experience the sights made mention in this great memoir including the heavily Scottish inspired island of Cape Breton, the iconic Flowerpot Rocks, the L. M. Montgomery homestead site (may want to stay in the very same Fairways Cottages, too) and the Fortress of Louisbourg (kicking myself for missing this the first go around as author brought this place to life for me)."
"I definitely recommend this book above any other if you are traveling to the east Coast."
"Many of these tips I've read about and heard already from my other preparation, but in every chapter there were always a few tips I hadn't heard of or even thought to consider which makes this book worth it alone."
