The Seven Wonders of Canada

saugeen_shores.jpgCBC radio often holds contests to get radio listeners to call in or email commentary on a variety of things. This contest though took flight.  Through the cbc.ca site people were asked to submit their "wonder of Canada".  There were over a million votes, and 25,000 entries.  Not large scale numbers in US terms, but in Canadian terms, a huge success. Especially for a publicly funded radio contest.
What started as a lark, has now become a veritable check list living and breathing online for people to plan their vacations.  Some of the entries are truly breath-taking and are replete with audio submissions.

Brings a tear to this canuck's eye…..
