Where are Canada's national historic sites located?

Do you want to know more about the country's past? Then go and see it. You will find a museum in nearly every Canadian city and town, and each one uses stories, images, documents, artifacts and works of art to show the events and achievements that built the nation. Every province and territory also holds national historic sites. Some are battlefields, some are buildings, some are archaeological sites, and some are sacred spaces. Parks Canada and the Virtual Museum of Canada both run websites that help you find one nearby.

Canada's wealth and its diversity rest on people working together. The challenges ahead will need the same effort from everyone. Anyone who applies to become a citizen is joining a country that will keep growing and thriving, but only if its citizens take an active part. That is why the closing thought is a personal one. Each new Canadian is asked to think about the contribution they will make to Canada.
