This week, Lorraine looks back on her first visit to Canada and shares her thoughts on surviving (and enjoying!) Canada's famous four seasons.

Dave dives into Newfoundland and Labrador's remarkable transatlantic history, while also talking about one of the province's greatest summer spectacles: iceberg season. Cruise ships are arriving in increasing numbers, making now the perfect time to discover Canada's eastern edge.

Speaking of Atlantic Canada, we chat about the growing popularity of cruises through the Maritimes. If your ship calls in Halifax, there is one important travel tip: find an ice cream shop! Ever tried the legendary Moon Mist ice cream? You may be surprised by this uniquely Maritime favourite. Lorraine also reminisces about a Nova Scotia comfort food she still misses today.

From there, we head across the country to Québec before dreaming big. Dave shares his bucket list ambition of sailing the legendary Northwest Passage, while Lorraine is already picturing herself aboard the Rocky Mountaineer, relaxing at the iconic Banff Springs Hotel, and perhaps continuing west to Alaska.

Or… why leave Canada at all? Dave makes the case for exploring the spectacular Haida Gwaii — one of Canada's most fascinating destinations, renowned for its breathtaking scenery, incredible wildlife, and rich Indigenous heritage.

Yes, we even find wonderful reasons to visit Saskatchewan and Manitoba! We truly leave no province or territory behind, which probably explains why this episode ended up being a little longer than usual. 😄
