The Canada Is Awesome network has websites and social media extensions in BCVancouver, Whistler, Calgary and Toronto, with many more on the horizon.

Our goal is simple: we let people know about all of the awesome things that make their Canadian cities great, despite the bad. I'm the founder of this network and each week in this What's Awesome post I bring you the top stories from each of our properties, giving you access to the best of our content all in one place.

TWO WEEKS WITH TELUS, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS ONE OF OUR BIGGEST LOCAL HEROES

TORONTO

CHARITABLE CHOICES: TRICK OR EAT AIMS TO END HUNGER IN CANADA

Trick-Or-Eat is a youth-led food drive organized by Meal Exchange that sees trick-or-treaters going door-to-door across Canada collecting non-perishable food items for local food agencies across the country. The initiative also raises money online for the same cause leading up to Halloween.

ANIMATION AND CELEBRATION: GIRAF and the CSIF.

November 6th-10th brings Calgary the 9th Annual GIRAF International Festival of Independent Animation - and this year looks pretty amazing.
