This is the Rideau channel. It was built in middle of the 19th century and is used as a recreation area today. On the right you can see the Fairmont Chateau Laurier (1912). It's the most famous luxury hotel in Canada.
Our first trip led us to Montreal a realy impressing city. It's the second biggest town in Canada and has a very french flair. I enjoyed our stay there.
This is the olympic velodrome of 1976. Today there is the Biodome in it, a zoo where 4 different ecosystems are recreated. The photo is taken from the highest skew tower of the world (175m).

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
