For all of my international readers, here is a little summer (or winter!) travel incentive. For those of you at home: get outside and enjoy what we've got right outside your doorstep! An amazing video montage of footage shot by average Canadians livin' life:
Awesome, eh?

Totally!
Yeah I would feel proud too :)
I love it! You Canadians know how to live the good life, that's for sure! xo
Love it! Especially love the sporty stuff and the wildlife. Those whales and moose (meese) are spectacular. It's been 20 years since I was in Canada (gawd, that makes me feel old) and I hope to get back there one day.
You have just made me so homesick! Thanks - in a nice way, not a sarcastic way, really.
Very cool video! I'm glad to be your neighbor. :)
Yup, AWESOME!
like totally rad.
One day I'm going to do the cross country train and see all the bits I missed when I lived there in the middle! (I did see Edmonton, Jasper, Winnipeg, Toronto, Ottowa, Kingston and Niagara Falls too, but mostly the middle ;o) )
Oh man! Thanks for making me cry. Homesick, blah! The best place ever! :)
Thank you for reminding me how awesome my country is - I miss home now!!!
You’ve made me feel homesick too and I’ve never been in Canada.
My husband loves your country and I understand why! If we could only have a little of your space and wildlife!
Wow! My dream is to explore Canada one day - watching that makes me want to save my pennies harder!
Ok so tears are welling up...awesome video.
Just gorgeous. We live in New England, and when we retire we hope to buy an RV and travel across Canada to the west coast!
Like New Zealand's big brother eh!
Ha ha, that happens to me too. "Oh Canada" playing in my head out of nowhere... Funny. :)
I'm with you, eh!! Totally awesome!
P
Awesome! Thanks for sharing this, Krista!
Now I'm homesick too! Oh Canada!!!
I'm with you - I love our country and get choked up pretty easily over it. Wonderful video - makes me realize that there's much more to this country than I'll ever get to experience.
That makes me happy. Like, a lot. Also, I want to see the Northern Lights in person as much as Rapunzel wants to see the floating lanterns. I'd jump out of my tower for it :)
This is awesome dude!
Fantastic!
Welcome back to the great white north eh!
Eh, indeed!
So proud :)
Great video! I'm proud to be a "new" Canadian - my citizenship ceremony in 1995 was one of the most moving events of my life.
Thanks for sharing ,I do hope to come back to Vancouver and see the sights and visit my family.

Cool video! My brother has just spent the last 18 months living in Canada (Whistler) and speaks so highly of the lifestyle (we're Australian). Can't wait to visit one day!
Same thing happens to me when I hear the National Anthem here in the US ~ tears every time.
Love the video ~ the part with the wolf was the best for me.
I really do have to come up ~ it's only a few hours from where I am.
Wonderful!!
There is an incredibly large Canadian flag in the Lowes lot, at Whitby Ontario,(hwy 401 & Stevenson Rd). Every-time I see that as I drive by I smile and feel so proud of our country, people and flag. We need to see more of them waving high.
Cheers from Oshawa Ontario.
Awesome indeed! With a few exceptions, it could have been an ad for Norway.)
Thanks for the wonderful reminder, it's easy to take living here for granted.
I love this country, too! Thanks for the awesome post, which I will share with my Mum later. I'm spending more time on FB and Twitter than I ever thought possible, just trying to do my bit to keep this country intact. So nice to see a post from someone else who loves this place. Have to run, but I'll be back. ~ Linne
Thanks Krista, the video was lovely. I'm all verklempt! Awesome indeed.
Great video! I, too, am a proud Canadian. I cry when I hear our anthem and belt it out loud enough to make others stare LOL! I'm proud to say my kids are also vocally patriotic! Thanks for the reminder of what a great country we live in.
just joined your blog yesterday and this is the first message I see today! Loved it! Thanks so very much!
Oh, I am new to your blog, new to Canada (we moved here a year ago from Europe) but I already feel the patriotism with you :) lovely movie, thank you for sharing!
love

That was a fabulous quick journey! Thanks.
I usually can't even sing the anthem because I get too choked up. I love how many people you convince to visit us Canuckleheads with your Home and Native Land posts… :-)
Soooo have to get my cross-country skis out this weekend...
