At one time I could say i had been to every province or territory from
Ontario west (albeit only by air to the Northwest Territories). Then eight
and a half years ago the territory of Nunavut was created stretching west
to about the Alberta/British Columbia border.

I will always think there are too many people who cross from Detroit
Michigan to Windsor Ontario (or Port Huron to Sarnia) and then stay for
only a couple days and never venture more than 20km from the border. I
don't think that will ever qualify as visiting Canada.

Driving to Prince George, BC (from the west) or to Whitehorse, YK (from the
north) is much more interesting.
