I used Twitter on Canada Day to post a whack of my personal favourite photos that I’ve taken over the years in this great country. Here’s a sampling of them, iin no particular order.

I hope you enjoy the show! Feel free to write back to me, of course: jim@jimbyerstravel.com. If I left your favourite place out pf my gallery, my apologies. I don’t have time to post all 10,478 photos in my laptop, and there still are many parts of Canada I haven’t had a chance to visit yet.

If you want to see any of the photos I missed in this gallery but posted on Twitter, check my Twitter account and follow me @jimbyerstravel. And you can always email me at jim@jimbyerstravel.com or follow me on Instagram @jimbyerstravel1. I’m also on Facebook at Jim Byers Travel.

Hope you enjoy the show!

Dog sledding on a frozen lake near Canmore, Alberta. Not on Canada Day, of course. But a very Canadian thing to do, for sure.
