One of my favourite of these is about mountaineering.

The Big Nickel is an iconic sight along the Trans Canada Highway at Sudbury in northern Ontario.

This is the Festival Theatre in the southern Ontario town of Stratford, which for decades has had an acclaimed Shakespeare festival each year.

The Caribou Monument is in Bowring Park, Newfoundland and Labrador, and is a commemoration of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment, done after the Great War, in which Newfoundlanders fought and served and suffered greatly.

Grain elevators are an iconic sight of the Canadian West, including this one in Saskatchewan.

The RCMP Musical Ride is another icon in the country.
