What's awesome in Canada this week?

The Canada Is Awesome network has websites and social media extensions in Vancouver, 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.

TORONTO

THE REVERB. SPECIAL EDITION: Red Bull Thre3Styles Coverage Part 2

It was an honor and a pleasure to host this spectacularly grand event, and I hope you had as much fun as I did, seeing and hearing this DJ history manifest. My body is still sore from dancing… 

CALGARY

Banff in A Day

We  wanted to get our mountain fix, but in an unlimited hot shower, sleep in a real bed, breakfast included kind of way.

WHISTLER

Captured: November Camping At Sloquet Hot Springs

Yes winter season is about to start but I figured I could slip in one more camping trip this summer fall. This time the destination was Sloquet Hot Springs, which I must say is worth the 3 hour drive from Whistler, but works great as a overnighter as the campsite is surprisingly quite nice.

VANCOUVER

HAPPY (BELATED) BIRTHDAY TO FORMER MAYOR SAM SULLIVAN, WHO’S GETTING THE BAND BACK TOGETHER AFTER 23 YEARS!

Over the past year I’ve got to know Sam a little bit and if there’s one thing that’s certain it’s that he’s a history buff when it comes to Vancouver and British Columbia. So as a gift, I decided to bring him a copy of our Vancouver WAS Awesome book that was just released.
