While Business Travel is often envied by those who do not partake in it, it is usually packed with tight schedules and meetings. With that being said, most of the business activities usually end by evening and there is always the opportunity to explore the city then.

While Canada is maybe best known for perilous Winters, apologizing, and ice hockey, the Summer season in Canada is legitimately awesome. Between two oceans, the Great Lakes, and a myriad of Provincial and Federal Parks, Canada knows how to have fun when the sun is out too. One way this is especially true is in the sheer number of large outdoor music festivals that take over areas annually. While there are numerous festivals worth your time and money, I wanted to know what some of the best ones were from the perspective of Canadian travel experts. For that I turned to JustFly, an online travel company. They provided me with a list of their four favourite music festivals in the Great White North that could rock your Summer.

Montreal is one of the more unique cities in Canada. As one of the country’s oldest cities, Montreal has seen a lot of change over the course of its history. Often a battleground between French, English, and, at times, American forces until Canadian Confederation in 1867, Montreal was brought up in an age of change in what would become North America. Today, Montreal is a vibrant city that encapsulates Canada’s bilingual nature. It is the gateway to French Canada, with much East of the city being primarily French, with most West of the city being English. It’s hands down one of the best cities in Canada to see and explore. To help plan a day in the city, I spoke with JustFly, an online travel company. They gave me an itinerary to follow for a day in La Belle Province.
