Landscapes here and throughout the country
Ever wonder about the James Bond Canadian connection? Didn't know he had one? It's right here, along with other Toronto and Canadian stories few people know. From the waterboarding tactics at Kingston Pen in the 19th century to Sitting Bull's stay in Saskatchewan, read on and discover another side to a city, and a country, you already know and love. I left in 2007 with my car, a laptop, a cellphone, a camera and camping gear and traveled from Toronto to Tofino along the Trans-Canada highway and many other roads, stopping along the way whenever something caught my attention. I explored other parts of Ontario and Quebec at various different times, then traveled around the Maritimes. All articles (c) Dominique Millette, 2003-2008.
