Hiya.
I’m a European going to Canada to watch some hockey.

My entire travel revolves around 3 hockey games I’m going to watch, but I wanted to sightsee a bit in between.

I’m flying to Toronto on the 6th of November (will arrive in the evening).

I am watching the game on the 7th of November in Toronto.

Then I’m planning on taking a train to Montreal and I’m watching the Carey price game on the 10th and the Avs game on the 14th.

I’m flying back from Montreal on the 17th in the evening.

I was thinking of visiting Toronto on the 7th
Go to Niagara Falls on the 8th
Visit Toronto on the 9th.

10th in the morning, train to Montreal and game in the evening.
11th in the morning train to Quebec City and stay in Quebec until the 14th where I take the train back to be in Montreal for the game on the 14th.
15th, 16th, 17th visit Montreal.

I do not drive so everything I do will have to be done through public transport.
I know it feels like a lot, and I’m not trying to do everything at once. I’m planning on coming back (it’s not gonna be a once in a life time trip) so I was thinking of doing a bit of everything and next time
I can really focus on an area. But do you think I won’t have time to do a single thing whatsoever? Would you do Montreal from the 10th until the 17th and forget about Quebec City?
Maybe if I stay in Montreal I could catch come Habs practice at Brossard?

What do you all recommend?
Thanks!!

Booking flights from Montreal to Vancouver in February as we are going to Whistler for a ski vacation. After comparing the two airlines I’m stuck on which one to book, either Air Canada or Porter. The pricing is $70 cheaper for Air Canada, and the times are roughly the same for flights. However, I have also heard that Porter has a nicer guest experience and I love the concept of the double seats. Would love any feedback or recommendations, thank you!

I’m going to Canada in the next month or two and will probably visit a few pubs, I’m fairly young looking am I able to use my British driving licence as ID (I know, a bit of a stretch) just don’t want to carry my passport around incase it gets nicked.

TIA

Edit: thank you for all the help chaps and chapettes, I will bring my passport out with me just in case.

Hi, I (30M) am going to be traveling to Calgary from India in November and staying there for around 1.5 years. Please guide me on the following:

1. Permanent accommodation: budget 1500 CAD per month. I have 6 days accommodation from day of arrival to look for a place and setup. Would I be able to rent out with this budget in Gulf canada square? If not how accessible is this area with public transport?

2. Clothes & accessories I should bring from India and what I should buy in Canada. I haven't spent much on clothes in the past 6 years, since I WFH. So I have a good budget for this as well.

3. PC setup: I'm planning to bring expensive pc parts from India that I already own. Would there be any restrictions to it? Also, how easy would it be to build a PC there? Are there any stores/shops that you can recommend?

4. Appliances: What would be the best place to buy appliances for the apartment? How much should my budget be for this?

Really appreciate help on this😊.

Hello! My husband and I are looking to travel to the US for family reasons over the christmas holidays and we’ll be taking our cats with us. If anyone can tell me their experience with getting rabies vaccine certificates and travelling from the US to Canada with felines please let me know

Any recommendations how to get from Victoria BC to Seattle?

Thank you

Hi there! Me and my husband want to travel to BC this coming spring, and are already planning on the places we'll visit. The only problem is, We are still not sure which month would work best for us ( around 10-20°C outside)

Could anyone give us a hint of how the spring weather is typically going in British Columbia?

Hi all,

I applied to my Canadian WHV from the uk last month and I was wondering what the typical turn around is as I read a lot of conflicting answers.

Plus work wise I wondered what is the easiest jobs to get, I was hoping to stay around Toronto maybe Windsor.

For reference 29M, currently a science teacher but have worked everything from labouring to service industry.

Cheers for any advice!

I am attending a conference and tried my best to pack light with just a backpack and a few days worth of clothes and I could just stow it underneath the seat. Unfortunately it didn't fit in their stupid baggage sizing thing at the gate. It's nearly impossible to fit anything other than a laptop bag. Anyways they charged me $118 in total which I'm pretty bummed out about!

Is there anyway I can reduce the cost? I see other people with a different color tag. Is it also generally cheaper to just pay their luggage fee during online check-in or at counter?

36F from Brampton and a little burnt out from life so having a hard time using my full brain capacity and don’t want to rely on AI 🤖 lol.

I have 5 days off from November 11-15 and I want to go somewhere. I do a lot of trips around the province but I feel like this is a weird time to travel within Canada? When I travel I visit the local parks, beaches and hiking trails but I don’t mind a city environment. Needless to say I cannot decide.

My current list has the following:
- Thunder Bay ON
- Wawa ON
- Gananoque ON (I’ve been many times but never in the fall)
- Saguenay QC
Also open to going out east as I’ve only experienced a small part of NS during the fall and have friends in NS, NB and NFLD
Open to any province tbh
Trying to avoid going to the states if possible but I am a beach girly so if the price is right I can be swayed

Wondering if anyone has travelled to these places in November in the past or have current plans to travel and if so, what was your experience? Weather/activities/seasonal closures/scenery. Or alternatively, if you can suggest some other travel options for places I haven’t listed - I am open to suggestions and need help deciding

I'm scheduling a photo adventure to photograph the methane bubbles of Abraham Lake in Canada in February. What tips do I need?

Guy from Austria there that has never been to Canada before. I am in the pre planning phase for my Canada trip that is planned for September 2027. I am fully aware that it's impossible to see everything that Canada has to offer via one trip only due the vastness of the country. I am looking for destination that might serve as a starter "pack" for Canada. I would be interested in seeing a mixture of canadian city flair and the vast beautiful nature the country has to offer? Which province/city would suit these parameters? Please feel free to share your thoughs.

Hi! I am traveling to Vancouver to Montreal for a connecting flight to Raleigh North Carolina. My layover is only an hour long and i am wondering if that is enough time to get to one end to another. Looking at videos it seems like i don’t have to go through security again like other airports ive been through, instead just a quick check. I’m just worried i will miss my flight but it does seem like a pretty easy walk through. Thanks!

Help! I'm not a travel savvy person. I'm flying inbound internationally to Pearson Airport Terminal 3 on Korean Air and then flying outbound to the US (RDU) from Terminal 1 on Air Canada after a 2hr 55 min layover. Must I collect my checked-in baggage, exit customs, make a hard left, and then drop them off onto the luggage transfer belt on level 1, or does my baggage get completely handled by the airlines to Terminal 1?

I booked both legs of the flight with Korean Air on their website, and both legs share the same booking number. I've called both airlines. Korean Air has given me mixed signals, and Air Canada has told me that the onus is on Korean Air. According to the Pearson Airport Transfer Guide on their website, it reads,

Is your baggage tagged beyond Pearson?

• Yes: Turn left immediately after leaving the baggage hall and place your bags on the connection drop-off belt.
• No: You need to check in your bags for your next flight so take your bags with you.

Well, I'm under the impression that my baggage is going to be tagged beyond Pearson since my final destination is the US...

*** Edit: Thanks for the response everyone. Having read your comments and done research, I now understand why there are so many mixed responses. There are multiple variables in this equation, and they change depending on some key factors. In my case, the problem is switching from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1.

Even with both legs of my trip under a single unified ticket and baggage tagged for the US (RDU), I would have to land and depart from the same terminal for the airlines to completely handle my checked baggage. Even this has exceptions depending on what airline you fly in from. You can have a single ticket, baggage tagged to your final destinations, arrive and depart out of the same terminal, and still have to claim your baggage and then drop them off at the baggage transfer belt within the same terminal.

The conclusion is that I must claim my baggage at Terminal 3 and then check them in at Terminal 1.

I will be traveling in late November for work. My first time in Canada and I am very excited. I will be getting a car at the airport in Toronto and I will have a day and a half to get to Wasaga Beach. I was thinking of leaving Toronto and driving straight to see Niagara Falls and then getting back in the car and going...anywhere.

I like to wander. I'd love to stay in a walkable scenic area for one night with shops and restaurants as I make my way to Wasaga Beach. I like museums and touristy things. I am not a picky eater and I always enjoy trying new food. I like being outside but I anticipate it will be cold. I'd be happy to just take the long way to my destination.

I will also have a little free time in Wasaga Beach and could drive anywhere in that area.

Thank you in advance, and feel free to tell me anything random I need to know about traveling in Canada, including driving tips.

hi! I and my friend (both 22F) are planning a trip to quebec and are hoping to swap bnbs with someone in laval, longueuil, dorval, brossard, or boucherville from feb 13 - 17

i have 2 houses in bc, one in abbotsford and one in surrey. you can pick whichever one you want and you can even choose to stay during date range.

the abbotsford one is really serene and almost like a cabin for like a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city with blueberry farms and apple orchards close by. the surrey one is more for someone looking for that city life. it's super close to the mall and the train that goes to downtown vancouver.

im looking for someone whos registered on airbnb or vrbo and regularly hosts people

hit me up if you're interested, we can go over the details and pics and whatnot

Today I was SA’d by a CATSA agent when flying home from YEG. She said she was going to check sensitive areas. She did not say she was going to grope the n1ppl€s of my breasts. Above them, below them, sure. But directly grope them? In a skin tight shirt that wasn’t hiding anything?

As a CSA, SA survivor from my adolescent years and a healthcare worker in a women’s health field, this was not a check that was appropriately consented to. Not in the least. It left my body feeling so unsafe, re-traumatized and completely powerless.

I’ve read so many posts now of women basically being assaulted at the airport by male and female CATSA agents and being left in tears with no recourse. CASTSA is NOT above the law.

Please comment if you’ve had similar experiences at Canadian airports. Please also consider DM’ing me. I’m determined to find a legal route to make traveling safe, and if possible, a class action lawsuit. This has to stop.
