Clairlea-Birchmount, Canada(opens in a new window)

The capital of Ontario, Toronto is the epitome of Canada cool. Be sure to make the 90-minute drive to Niagara Falls and soak up the view from the ‘prettier’ side of the falls. Root for hometown ice-hockey heroes the Toronto Maple Leafs, or watch baseball’s Blue Jays and NBA’s Toronto Raptors in action. Take in some history at the Royal Ontario Museum, shop until you drop at Eaton Centre and sample cuisines from all over the world thanks to the city’s diverse population. Head to the Entertainment District for a night on the town, or check out the edgy music scene at Massey Hall or Glenn Gould Studio.
