CANADIAN CULTURE, RECREATION & SPORTS

Now the sports I really love are soccer and X-country running. For more information check out myAthletics Page. But for now, check these sites out for true Canadian content in the athletic world and then you can come back to finish your visit. For all you sporting news, you should check out our sports network... TSN.

Interested in mountain climbing, or just the great outdoors? Then check out the ACC Web site. They have 15 sections across Canada. With plenty of fresh air and open spaces, what better spot on the planet is there for hiking, climbing, camping, and smelling the wild roses? My friend Ghislain's page on Climbing in New Brunwick is a great resource. Someday I'm going to try climbing...really!
Virtual North Adventures in Canada offers some really interesting stuff.

If you are planning an expedition then you may want to call these people to make your reservations and to ask about seat sales!

    It is only fitting since a Canadian invented basketball, we should have our some teams in the NBA too.

    Now there are rumours that Umbro is involved in child labor. If anyone has anything to say about this, please email me.

    Now the Yanks believe they own this game but I don't even think anyone really understands how futbol is supposed to be played (check out the previous link). If you are still interested in this pigskin game then check the true Canadian original!  Canadian Football League
