When planning your Canadian itinerary, what's your approach to covering the country?

I want to see as much as possible—visit multiple provinces and cities in one trip. I'm thinking about visiting 3-4 major cities across different regions. I'm focusing on 2 regions to explore them more deeply without constant travel. I've researched distances and planned a strategic route focusing on quality over quantity.

How prepared are you for Canadian tipping culture and payment methods?

I'm not sure about tipping expectations—I'll figure it out when I arrive. I know tipping is important but I'm unsure about the specific percentages and situations. I understand restaurant and basic service tipping, but I'm less certain about other scenarios. I know the tipping guidelines for restaurants, bars, taxis, hotels, and other services, plus I have a payment strategy.

What's your current status regarding travel insurance and healthcare preparation?

I haven't thought about travel insurance yet—Canada's healthcare should cover me as a visitor. I'm aware I need travel insurance but haven't purchased it or researched options. I'm shopping for travel insurance and understand it's essential for medical emergencies. I have comprehensive travel insurance covering medical emergencies and evacuation, plus I've notified my bank.

How familiar are you with Canadian culture, outdoor activities, and regional differences?

I have a basic idea of Canada but haven't researched specific cultural norms or outdoor opportunities. I know Canada is outdoor-focused and has diverse regions, but I'm still learning the details. I understand outdoor culture is central to Canada and I'm researching specific activities and regional highlights. I've researched Indigenous culture, regional differences, French phrases for Quebec, and planned outdoor experiences.
