THE WEEKLY GOOSE

NO: 071| 06.22.2022

Did you know? Canada’s beaver is the second-largest rodent in the world, weighing up to 60 pounds. (The largest rodent is the capybara, found in South America and weighing up to 100 pounds.) No wonder they take down trees!

Right now, we're kayaking through beautiful Kejimkujik National Park before heading over to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia for the TMAC (Travel Media Association of Canada) conference. We'll be in Halifax for Canada Day too if anyone is around… Hit reply and let us know!

But without further ado, enjoy the 71st edition of The Weekly Goose, which features a video and travel guide about Vernon, a travel guide to Kelowna, the best wineries in Osoyoos, and more!

THINGS TO DO IN KELOWNA

Located along beautiful Okanagan Lake, surrounded by desert and wineries, Kelowna is easily one of British Columbia’s tourism jewels. It’s the third-largest metropolitan area in British Columbia, behind only Vancouver and Victoria, and is one of the most popular summer destinations in the province. It’s also one of the warmest destinations in Canada, so whether you’re looking to get some sun, go boating, hit up a golf course, visit wineries, or even come here in the winter for some awesome skiing, Kelowna is a great place to explore.

THE BEST WINERIES IN OSOYOOS

For the wine-loving travellers who are looking to expand their knowledge of New World grapes, there is no better place to look than Osoyoos – a strip of land just south of Kelowna. Despite being lesser known than its neighbour to the north, Osoyoos absolutely deserves to be on your list when touring Canada’s incredible (and vast) wine country. Read on to discover some of the best and most unique wineries, all of which are sure to leave an impression big enough to outlive that last bottle.

BEAVER BITES

You may have recently heard about a “Titanic Experience” coming to Halifax, but nope, it's not happening. It might happen in Niagara Falls though…
Looking for cheaper ways to fly to Ottawa? Swoop just launched their inaugural flight from Halifax to Ottawa.
We all know how much everyone loves Canada but did you know 2.4 million people are currently backlogged in the immigration system? There's always been a “line up” but it was made worse by the pandemic and now the war in Ukraine.
This is not the travel trip anyone wants. Check out the insane story of a Canadian flight crew that discovered $25 million worth of cocaine on the private jet they were operating and are now trapped in the Dominican Republic.
Also, for those that missed it, yesterday (the 21st) was both Summer Solstice (the longest day of the year) and National Indigenous Peoples Day. There's so many great Indigenous tourism experiences out there, so make sure you check them out.

This was the 2nd time we’ve hiked Green Gardens and it won’t be the last. This is one of favourite hikes in Gros Morne National Park. You get to see the Tablelands, black spruce, and rugged coastline.
