Canada is a truly multi-cultural society with a population approaching 35 million (2010). Approximately 60% of the population is English speaking, 23% is French speaking and the remaining 17% is a mix of the original native inhabitants plus the languages of immigrants who have long favoured Canada as their new home. Toronto has the reputation as being one of the most multi-cultural cities on earth. The harsh climate and terrain of Canada's northern regions has discouraged major settlement and the bulk of the population live in cities a short distance from the USA border in the south. Much of the northern regions have large deposits of coal, oil and natural gas and a scattering of small towns service those industries. Most overseas visitors to Canada will arrive by air and the biggest international airports are at Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal. The majority of the major airline operate from those cities but there are also international services in and out of cities such as Halifax, Ottawa, Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Saskatoon, Kelowna, Cranbrook, and Victoria. Air Canada and its operatives provide the majority of internal flights. For holiday makers wanting to take advantage of the outdoors, and especially if a self drive vacation is being planned, the best time is to visit is summer.
