Every summer, Canadians make a pilgrimage to whatever lake,
ocean or river is closest and drink it in, sometimes braving
traffic jams just to get there. Lucky for us, Canada has more
shoreline than any other country in the world and that’s before
tapping into our more than three million lakes (more than
60 percent of the world’s total) and 2.5 million rivers, many of
which are still yet to be discovered.
