11 Day Across Canada from Calgary to Toronto Tour Code ACCT 11 Day Across Canada from Calgary to Toronto 11 days Created on: 28 Sep, 2021 Day 1: Arrive in Calgary, AB Arrive in Calgary, known as a Gateway to the Canadian Rockies. Calgary is a vibrant city and one with Canada?s youngest population age. It is known for its entrepreneurial energy while embracing the western heritage. We suggest that you take a little time to explore the award-winning architectural masterpiece of Calgary?s Public Library, walk along the scenic Bow Valley River pathway or experience the buzz of downtown Stephen Avenue with its stores and restaurants. Overnight: Calgary Included Meal(s): Dinner Day 2: Calgary ? Saskatoon, SK We will do a quick orientation drive through Calgary and view some of the city?s highlights before we start our ?Prairie Day? as we drive through a vast and open landscape on our way to Saskatoon. This afternoon, there will be some time to explore the city centre of Saskatoon on foot. Overnight: Saskatoon Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner Day 3: Saskatoon, SK This morning we drive to Wanuskewin Heritage Park, a National Historic Site located 5km north from Saskatoon. This Northern Plains Indigenous Interpretive Site is home to over 6000 years of history and a truly unique cultural experience. The Heritage Park is a window into a part of Canada's history that remains little known, and a link to the past unlike any other National Historic Site in Canada. Wanuskewin's uniqueness is based on the composition of human habitation, hunting and gathering, and spirituality, all in one place. Virtually every ancient indigenous group recognized across the Great Plains visited this location year-after-year and the result is a remarkably complete and intact record of cultural development in the region over that time span. We then visit the striking new Remai Modern museum that sits on the river bank with stunning views of the South Saskatchewan River and prairie skies. Spanning four levels, Remai Modern has 11 gallery spaces over three floors, learning studios, a theatre, restaurant, store, lounges, play areas and numerous multi-use spaces. Join an informative guided walk through the gallery. Later in the day, we board the Prairie Lily river boat for an evening one-hour cruise with a narrated commentary through the heart of Saskatoon on the South Saskatchewan River.There is a tremendous variety of craft breweries and boutique restaurants using fresh local ingredients in the city. Saskatchewan is, after all, the breadbasket of Canada and the Saskatoon?s creative restaurant owners have infused local ingredients into their menus to create a varied choice. Overnight: Saskatoon Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 4: Saskatoon ? Regina, SK Our cross Canada holiday continues as drive through the southern plains of Saskatchewan, a province known as the ?Land of the Living Skies?. Saskatchewan is primarily known for its agriculture but also has significant oil reserves and is the world's largest producer and exporter of potash. This afternoon, we arrive in Regina, the capital city of Saskatchewan. Regina was originally named Canada/USA 1-866-814-7378 Page 1/3 Wascana, Cree for "Buffalo Bones" before being renamed Regina in 1882 honouring Queen Victoria. Overnight: Regina Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 5: Regina ? Winnipeg, MB Today we discover an important part of Canada's past at the RCMP Heritage Centre and Depot Academy, the home of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). RCMP members have trained here since 1885 and even today Depot Academy remains the only RCMP training site in Canada. Continuing across the Canadian heartland, we leave Saskatchewan behind and enter our fourth province on our journey east, Manitoba. Manitoba?s landscape of lakes and rivers, boreal forests and prairies, stretches from the northern Arctic tundra and Hudson Bay to the rich southern farmlands. Overnight: Winnipeg Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 6: Winnipeg, MB On foot and by coach, we will explore the highlights of Winnipeg today including the Forks National Historic Site, the Exchange District, St. Boniface and the French Quarter, and finally, the Royal Canadian Mint. We will visit the iconic Canadian Museum of Human Rights, the only museum entirely devoted to human rights for humanity. From the breathtaking architecture to the moving stories and captivating exhibitions and programs, every part of the Museum offers a unique encounter as you experience human rights stories from Canada and around the world. If there is some free time in the afternoon, we suggest you visit on your own, the award-winning Manitoba Museum, renowned for the vivid portrayal of Manitoba's rich and diverse history, Planetarium shows, and Science Gallery exhibits. The Museum's collections reflect the heritage of Manitoba and other regions of the world and allow you to journey from north to south across Manitoba's vast and varied landscape, from the icy arctic coast to the windswept prairies. The Museum is also noted for its three-dimensional walk-through galleries including the Nonsuch, a full-size 17th-century sailing vessel, and the Urban Gallery, which takes you back in time to Winnipeg during the 1920s. The Manitoba Museum was the first Planetarium in Canada to offer visitors the Digistar' Five All-Dome digital projection technology. Overnight: Winnipeg Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 7: Winnipeg ? Thunder Bay, ON A scenic drive across the Canadian Shield; one of the world's largest geologic continental shields, centred on Hudson Bay and extending for 8 million km2 over most of eastern, central, and northwestern Canada from the Great Lakes to the Canadian Arctic and into Greenland, with small extensions into northern U.S.A. We will stop at the spectacular Kakabeka Falls, located on the Kaministiquia River and showcases the fast moving waters cascading 130 ft (40m) down to the gorge below. With its name originating from the Ojibwe word ?gakaabikaa? meaning "waterfall over a cliff", this has become known as the "Niagara of the North". Thunder Bay is the western terminus of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway and the farthest west that ships from the Atlantic can sail in Canada. Overnight: Thunder Bay Included Meal(s): Breakfast Canada/USA 1-866-814-7378 Page 2/3 Day 8: Thunder Bay ? Sault Ste. Marie, ON We travel deeper into the province of Ontario today following the shores of Lake Superior, one of the five Great Lakes and the second largest lake in the world, on our way to Sault Ste. Marie. Our drive today includes a stop at the Terry Fox Monument. Terry Fox, a Canadian icon set out on his "Marathon of Hope" in 1980 to raise awareness and funds for cancer research by running from coast to coast across Canada. Terry's marathon ultimately came to an end in Ontario, just over halfway through the 8000 km journey he had planned, when his cancer spread to his lungs. His legacy continues to this day as the annual "Terry Fox Runs" takes place in cities and towns across Canada each year raising money for cancer research. This evening we arrive in Sault Ste. Marie, Canada's second largest steel producing city, situated on St. Mary's River which acts as a natural border between Canada and the United States. Overnight: Sault Ste. Marie Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 9: Sault Ste. Marie ? Toronto, ON We continue our drive to southern Ontario with a stop in Sudbury. The region?s nickel deposits, the richest in the world, have been the primary driving force of the local economy for many decades. Before departing Sudbury, we take the opportunity for a photo op at the "Big Nickel", a 9 metre high replica of a 1951 Canadian coin. We drive to Barrie and finally to Canada?s largest city, Toronto. Overnight: Toronto Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner Day 10: Toronto, ON Toronto is ours to discover today. Along with being a commercial and financial powerhouse, Toronto has also successfully positioned itself as a thriving artist community where music, theatre and movies come to life. Hosting the prominent Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) every fall, Toronto shares the name "Hollywood North" with Vancouver, a reference to the countless blockbuster movies filmed in Toronto each year. A tour of Toronto includes Yonge Street, the longest street in the world, Casa Loma, Chinatown, the waterfront and the CN Tower, an icon of Toronto's skyline. Overnight: Toronto Included Meal(s): Breakfast Day 11: Depart from Toronto Our journey across the country comes to a conclusion this morning with a transfer to Toronto airport to catch our return flights home.

  • “Indianness” and the Fur Trade: Representations of Aboriginal People in Two Canadian Museums
    “INDIANNESS” AND THE FUR TRADE: REPRESENTATIONS OF ABORIGINAL PEOPLE IN TWO CANADIAN MUSEUMS BY MALLORY ALLYSON RICHARD A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of History University of Manitoba / University of Winnipeg Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 Copyright © 2011 by Mallory Allyson Richard ii ABSTRACT Museum representations of Aboriginal people have a significant influence over the extent to which Aboriginal presence in and contributions to Canadian history form part of the national public memory. These representations determine, for example, Canadians‟ awareness and acknowledgment of the roles Aboriginal people played in the Canadian fur trade. As the industry expanded its reach west to the Pacific and north to the Arctic, Aboriginal people acted as allies, guides, provisioners, customers, friends and family to European and Canadian traders. The meaningful inclusion of Aboriginal experiences in and perspectives on the fur trade in museums‟ historical narratives is, however, relatively recent. Historically, representations of Aboriginal people reflected the stereotypes and assumptions of the dominant culture. These portrayals began to change as protest, debate and the creation of The Task Force on Museums and First Peoples took off in the late 1980s, leading to the recognition of the need for Aboriginal involvement in museum activities and exhibitions. This project examines whether these changes to the relationships between museums and Aboriginal people are visible in the exhibits and narratives that shape public memory. It focuses on references to the fur trade found in the Canadian Museum of Civilization‟s First Peoples Hall and Canada Hall and throughout the Manitoba Museum, using visitor studies, learning theory and an internal evaluation of the Canada Hall to determine how and what visitors learn in these settings.

  • Weaving Relationality Into Métis Material Culture Repatriation
    Heart Work: Weaving Relationality into Métis Material Culture Repatriation by Leah Kirstie Hrycun A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Faculty of Native Studies University of Alberta © Leah Kirstie Hrycun, 2020 Abstract The purpose of this study is to explore the desires of Métis individuals in Alberta to advance repatriation and to analyze their views on the role that museums play in continuing to hold material culture. The Métis Nation of Alberta expressed interest in advancing repatriation efforts on behalf of Métis in Alberta, and it is anticipated that this study will provide insight into the desire for repatriation and the effect that repatriation could have on self-determination for Métis in Alberta. It is anticipated that articulating the desires of Métis individuals to advance repatriation would make clear the need for a Métis-specific framework for repatriation, and accordingly this study serves as a foundation from which a Métis-specific framework for repatriation can be negotiated between Métis in Alberta and the federal and provincial governments. Utilizing qualitative case study methodology, including focus groups and one-on- one interviews, this study canvassed nine individuals who self-identify as Métis and who currently reside in Alberta. The data collected through these processes highlight the need for museums and museum staff to develop policies and procedures unique to Métis needs and goals in order to advance repatriation. Through this study, it was found that there is a strong desire for Métis in Alberta to advance repatriation, and that Métis-specific repatriation centres on the development of good relations between Métis and museums in Alberta.

Winnipeg's Cultural Tour Package Research project, proposed by Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra (WSO), is a project aiming to structure a tourism package centered at Winnipeg's performing arts and cultural attractions. Through the program, we identify customers' preference for the cultural items as well as the factors related to the preference. We also provide a marketing plan suggesting the direction of starting the program based on SWOT and marketing mix analyses. The research is contributable to both the marketing and the cultural tourism literatures. Also, in practical, the research stands at a macro level to demonstrate the benefits of integrating cultural items in Winnipeg and to suggest ways for WSO to cooperate with other cultural or supporting institutions to offer the program. WCTP RESEARCH PRACTICUM 3 Acknowledgement I would express my deep appreciation to my advisor, Dr.Edward Bruning, for his inspiration, kind help and support throughout my program. I am very grateful that Dr.Edward Bruning took his time and effort to instruct me to be a better student and also a growing marketing researcher.
