Our programs
to Northern Ontario and Quebec provide students with a
first-hand look at industries which shaped our
nation and northern communities, and of course Native culture,
history and traditions.
Offer your
students the opportunity to experience the history and
geographical diversity of Canada and to
learn about the challenges of living in the far north!
