IN CANADA’S glorious natural playground
you will find the perfect setting for your
vacation. Here are beautiful lakes and streams,
bordered by pine-scented forests... mountains
rising majestically from sea-bound shores ...
great inland waterways that invite you to
cruise... and historical towns and cities that
extend to you a friendly welcome.
So plan now to be a “ Guest of Canada** this
year. You can be here in a few hours by motor,
train or boat—free from any red tape at the
border—and you will enjoy the experience
of feeling *' at home ” abroad.
If you fancy the care-free vagabond life you
can travel in Canada along smooth scenic
highways, camp in picturesque spots and live
in the outdoors. You can enter a sportsman’s
paradise where game fish will give you thrill*
tog battles — where moose, deer, grizzlies
and mountain sheep are prize trophies of
your skill in marksmanship and stalking.
Or, if you choose the gay life of modem
summer resorts, Canada offers you a wide
choice of comfortable accommodations with
distinctive Canadian cooking. You can indulge
in swimming, boating, riding, golfing and
every other diversion that goes to make up
a happy holiday.
