    I wish that I had spent more time in Toronto - I felt right at home there. It was sort of like London but a lot nicer.

    Be careful with your timing if you are going to travel around Canada in September - that is the time that the weather starts to turn. We arrived in a town in the Yukon on the 15th of September and the town had just about packed-up for the winter.

    There are the thousand islands, Ottawa, Lakes north of Toronto. I think there is a theme park - Canada's Wonderland I think its called. CN tower now you can walk around the outside of it.

    Rockies are about a 4 hour flight west - but there is Mount Tremblant north of Monteal which has some to do in the summer. east of there is Nova Scotia which is just great.

    I'd second this. Newfoundland is cracking, and New brunswick. Slower pace of life. Failing that, get over to the West Coast and get up the coast a bit, or Vancouver Island. Lots of cracking trips to make to see whales. I love Vancouver, personally, one of the great cities in the world. But a bus ride from Seattle too which isn't bad.

    You'll get great weather in Ontario in summer, but in BC, it will be like England in summer and very hit and miss. Depends what you want really. BC is really, really nice.

Has anyone else been and got recomendations of things to do, apart from the Rockies and the waterfall is there much else to do there or would I be better off getting flight from Toronto in to the US and spending rest of holiday there. In terms of the kind of things we want to do I don't just want to visit and look and things I want to do things, boat trips etc, theme park may be ?

    Rockies are some way from Toronto - Banff is nice, Vancouver is great but both way West Of Ont

    Could try gold panning, rent a float plane and some serious fishing,take a rail trip across the Rockies.
    I'm not aware of any Canadian theme parks
