Northern Tales
- Seeing the northern lights is on plenty of people's bucket lists, but not everyone is aware that Canada is one of the best places in the world to experience this incredible phenomenon.
- The aurora borealis can be seen from quite a few places in Canada, including several spots in the Rocky Mountains, the central prairies, and the remote northern territories.
- Instead of planning an expensive trip to Iceland with the sole purpose of seeing an incredible natural light show, head up to the Great White North to catch a glimpse of the aurora without stepping off North American soil.
