For vacationers looking closer to home for new surprises, it's time to consider Winnipeg. And it will surprise. Yes, Winnipeg's winters can be cold—it's a Canadian prairie city after all. And it's true Winnipeg has a healthy population of mosquitoes—where there's nature, there's bugs. But what someone from outside of Manitoba probably doesn't know is that Winnipeg...

Today, such figures can still be spotted across Canada, especially at summer rodeos. Amidst a flurry of chaps and spurs, country music and clowns, rodeo grounds come alive with bucking bulls and barrel-racing horses in a posse of action-packed performances.

O Canada!

True patriot love in all thy sons command. With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
—yes, the national anthem sure says a lot about this Canada's character, yet this poetic tribute could still use one more adjective, like big or maybe huge.
Surprisingly, there is a plethora of unique, unusual and eye-catching landmarks that can be found in every province of Canada. In fact, these often entertaining sights are more likely found in smaller towns, where tourists are lured in to take a picture or buy a trinket of these one-of-a-kind discoveries.
Located smack-dab in the middle of Canada, amidst endless prairie farmland, Winnipeg is seldom associated with the term vacation destination. Sure, it's a place for business trips or to drive through on the way to or from Ontario, but for Canadians, taking a holiday in Winnipeg is the equivalent of going to Amish Country for a bachelor party.
