As you walk through the winding alleyways of our vibrant downtown, you’ll encounter fashionistas, chefs, musicians, and more, all elements of a colorful tapestry of experiences unfolding before your eyes.Thirsting for adventure? It’s easily quenched by skirting the dramatic coastline on foot, or enjoying a day on a boat on the bay having close encounters with humpback whales, puffins, or icebergs (and maybe all three!).

Red Deer, Alberta

Living in Red DeerRed Deer is located in the center of Alberta and at the midpoint between Calgary and Edmonton. It is the third most populated city in Alberta, after Calgary and Edmonton, with 90 564 inhabitants. Red Deer has a humid continental climate, with hot temperatures in the summer and cold ones in the winter. Even though located in aspen parkland (a region between the prairies and the boreal forests of rolling hills that is subject to oil, grain, and cattle production) the city is pretty urban and presents a lot of facilities and attractions.Language: English 89.4%, French 1.7%, Allophones 8.9% .Programs offered: English Summer & English winter

Beautiful vistas, unique culinary pleasures, and unique architecture are just tiny slices of an urban experience that will feel like no other. But it’s the colorful characters who are most memorable, in a place where strangers quickly become friends, and the local vernacular has you smiling and scratching your head all at once. Performances abound: sing along. Toe tapping is welcome.Colorful experiences. Colorful characters. Colorful encounters. Make your destination St. John’s—you’ll be glad you did.

MONTREAL, Quebec

Montreal is a cosmopolitan and dynamic city. The French Canadian culture inspires the music, theater, films and circus arts that the city is known for. Montreal residents appreciate the variety of activities available to them during the summer (and even in the winter!). Indeed, many festivals and events take place all over the city. It is not uncommon for families to gather in parks and public places to attend concerts or shows after work, enjoying the mild and sunny weather and the exciting atmosphere of their city. In addition, each neighborhood has something to offer; restaurants, architecture, special activities (theater or film screenings in the parks), museums or cultural events that are all available to residents. Transportation is very accessible in Montreal. Many people use bicycles or walk in order to commute to work. There is an extensive Metro system and efficient bus services. Montreal is considered a safe city and it is not an issue to walk or use public transportation in most neighborhoods, even at night.
