Whistler<\/strong><\/p>\n

When Canadians think of Whistler, they think skiing, snowboarding and chalet resorts. While it\u2019s known as one of the world\u2019s top ski resorts, summertime sees just as much visitors as it does in the winter. After sitting in classrooms and labs all year, it\u2019s the perfect time to get out and enjoy what nature has to offer. Whistler boasts a number of hiking trails, beaches, and parks. You can fish, go on a helicopter excursion or view some of their famous black bears.<\/p>\n

Calgary<\/strong><\/p>\n

For a post-graduation thrill with a hint of country flair, visit Calgary during the stampede. Every July, the Alberta city draws cowboys and cowgirls from all over the world. This beloved event is a wild ride and a unique way to celebrate your graduation. While it\u2019s not margaritas on a beach, the rodeos, chuck wagon races and agricultural displays will have you feeling like you\u2019ve stepped into old western movie.<\/p>\n

Toronto<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some may consider Toronto to be Canada\u2019s answer to New York City. Between its diverse culture and various attractions, Drake\u2019s favourite city is a hot spot for metropolitan adventure. Whether you want to cheer on the beloved Blue Jays or shop till you drop on Bloor Street, there are a number of must-dos when in the 6ix.<\/p>\n

Montreal<\/strong><\/p>\n

Put those French classes to good use with a getaway to Montreal. Arguably Canada\u2019s top party city, Montreal is a popular destination for students and recent grads. The nightlife is unparalleled and its French roots give visitors a taste of Europe in Canada. Try their famous poutine or sip sangria on any one of their patios.<\/p>\n

Peggy\u2019s Cove<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Maritimes is perfect for anyone looking for a seaside escape, and a break from city life. Located on the eastern shore of St. Margarets Bay, Peggy\u2019s Cove is a great way to indulge in Nova Scotia\u2019s heritage. You can try your hand at lobster fishing or pose for a photo in front of the famous Peggy\u2019s Cove Lighthouse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
