Up #North, Canadian fall means crisp air, darker skies and more time to look up. As winter approaches, the northern lights bring a little extra magic to the season. Where in Canada would you most like to watch the night sky? 🍂🌌 📷 Liz.tran/IG

Road signs say kilometres. Canadians say, "It’s about half an hour from here." On #WorldStandardsDay, here’s a nod to both Canada's official metric system and our unofficial standard of measuring: distance by travel time. What measurement do you use? 🇨🇦🚙

#Canada and #Europe have been in conversation for centuries. Literally. Newfoundland accents still echo the speech of settlers from southern Ireland and southwest England, making language a living time capsule of our transatlantic ties. Have you heard the Newfoundland accent? 🌊🗣️
