Toronto passed North America's first green roof bylaw about fifteen years ago. Every planted roof helps with issues like stormwater management, urban cooling, and wildlife habitat, and the ones that are designed to be accessed by people also provide greenspace... and these days, often room for food production too. If you want a look at a downtown Toronto farm, Exploring Alternatives has a good video about the one at the U of T :)
@@aussietashreacts I mock Toronto most of the time but when it comes to their green roofs, I'm jealous! CBC Docs also has a short piece that's worth looking at to get an idea of the range of TO's newest rooftops.
The strip club *(The Manor),* that becomes a church on Sunday, is here in *Guelph* Ontario. 😊 Fun fact, the club/church used to be the home (mansion) of the *Sleeman* family. One of Canada's oldest and largest brewery families. (The brewery was bought up by the Japanese brewing giant *Sapporo* a few years back)😊
The thing about the longest *fresh water* beaches in the world, meaning that they *aren't* on the oceans. As the narrator said, the longest one, *Wasaga Beach* is on Georgian Bay. And the second longest (also where i grew up) *Sauble Beach* is on Lake Huron..both are part of *The Great Lakes.*
It was called the Whiskey War. It went on for decades. It ended last year. We signed a treaty to divide the island. It was partially ended to put on a display of international diplomacy after Putin invaded Ukraine.
Good morning Aussie Tash, you must let us know when you decide to come to Canada, so many people here would likely want to meet you and thank you in person for the wonderful videos you produce. Have a great day! Ottawa, Canada
To split hairs a bit, the U.S. actually tried to invade Canada a few times during the War of 1812 but all attempts failed for one reason or another. I live a few hundred feet from the site in Stoney Creek where one of the attempts ended. We have two monuments to the battle here and even a crypt containing the remains of some of the American soldiers who were killed in the battle. Some of my ancestors living there at the time were born in the U.S. but had moved here a few years before.
I grew up within spitting distance of the Battle of Crysler Farm in 1813 on the St. Lawrence River. It was the last invasion attempt they made.Their own ineptitude pretty much did them in.
I live in Prescott, ON. While I love, love, LOVE Aussie Tash and certainly appreciated your comment on the history of Stoney Creek via the War of 1812, I often find that many forget about the Fenian Raids of the late 1860s - early 70s though - which greatly affected much of Upper Canada's population at the time.
@@texadian339 Some historians think that the Fenian Raids were one of the main driving forces behind Confederation. There’s a monument and National Historic Site at Ridgeway near Fort Erie to commemorate the Battle of Ridgeway (June 2nd, 1866) the first battle led entirely by Canadian commanders leading entirely Canadian troops (militia). Unfortunately the Fenians won the battle but returned to Fort Erie thinking that they would soon be overwhelmed by British regular troops. They were arrested by the U.S. Navy and taken back to the States. Fear of further incursions were a definite factor in the decision of the British territories to form a united federation.
@@michaeldowson6988 At Stoney Creek it had more to do with inept leadership than the American troops. Two of their Generals were captured and the officer left in charge incorrectly estimated the strength and numbers of British Troops and made the decision to retreat. The appearance of British warships on the lake nearby also provided a threat to communication and supply lines.
Two US forces were supposed to rendezvous on the St. Lawrence river for an attack on Montreal. But the two officers in command were old Revolutionary officers not up to speed, and they hated each other, so weren't co-ordinating well enough to succeed.@@robertpearson8798
*Praia do Cassino Beach,* Brazil Known to be the longest beach in the world, this shoreline stretches for *157-miles* (252.667 kilometres) from Rio Grande, Brazil all the way to the border with Uruguay.
#15. That dispute of the useless island was settled. They finally just split it basically in half. lol. We (speaking for Canada) Now share a land border with Denmark!
It's not in half, one side gets more area but the other side gets the only landing area. I don't remember who got what. I've heard they might build a random tourist attraction like a demarkated line so people who go there (as if anyone would) can stand in both countries at once.
we don't have any actual deserts in Canada, but we do have sand dunes all over the place in the Western Boreal region which get confused for deserts. They still get rain and snow and temperatures below -40 like anywhere else in the area
We are NOT A MELTING POT! First it mentions a cultural mosaic (YES) then goes on to mention a melting pot(NO) which is an American concept of every thing blending into a common thing - that is NOT the Canadian ideal! 😊
No point in doing a beach off. Australian beachs beat Canadian beachs hands down. You win that one. I also think Australia has the longest Hwy, because it circles back on itself.
Tash if you ever find yourself in Nova Scotia, and I hope you do. You must ride the Tidal bore. The Cabot Trail is a beautiful burst of autumn colours along a beautiful drive.
Wasaga beach, our family summer haven in the 60’s and early 70’s. It had everything for family’s, including carnival rides to drive to if parents were getting a bit kid crazy. Later in the 80’s, not as much family, but a mix, including biker haven.
How long are you going to spend in Canada when you visit??? All the places you want to go and see is going to take you weeks if not months unless you plan on doing a lot of flying in country. If you are driving it will take a long time to see everything. Just saying it is a huge country, think about driving from Brisbane to Perth via Darwin and then add more.
#43 wasn't correct as Vancouver has never hosted the Summer Olympics. Green roofs reduce stormwater runoff, help keep buildings cool in summer, absorb carbon dioxide, and attract wildlife like birds and bees.
In 1840 the Americans wanted to invade British Columbia, so we built Fort Victoria on Vancouver Island to protect the west coast, it became the city of Victoria.
The original provincial capital was New Westminster, hence it's nickname the "Royal City", but it was open to land invasion so was moved to Victoria for safety. City hall in New West still has 2 cannons pointing south just in case the Yanks get uppity again.
Also there was a massive fire that swept through New West.for every home, building was made of tinder/wood...so notably the capital was changed to Victoria. The masons were busy there for most of the structures were made of stone.a better retardant to 🔥 😊@@SnowmanN49
That fact about the Vancouver Olympics is outright FALSE. Only Montreal has ever hosted the summer Olympics in Canada. Calgary and Vancouver have hosted Winter Olympics. The first city to ACTUALLY host both is Beijing.
fun fact theres actually a smaller jail here in manitoba in a tiny placed called red deer lake right off a turn in another tiny place called barrows. its literally a 1 cell blockade with the front bars now ripped right off the place from vandalism.... but im not sure it was able to be considered because records were just kept at a locals house and not in an place management folder or something along those lines. I grew up trapping with my dad around those tiny areas but im still in lovely northern manitoba :)
Green roofs is where flat roofs will be turned into a rooftop garden. They can grow a variety of plants. Some restaurants will grow some of their own produce on their own roof.
I used to work in a Tim Hortons and there was a crazy old fella that would come by every so often. He was probably in his 70s, about 5ft maybe 100lbs 45kg pale and gaunt with skin flaking off and he smelled like death... We called him corpse man. Any time he'd come in we'd have to go out and clean the whole dining room and even had to buy industrial odour neutralizer from the company that removes the trash for the city because the aerosol stuff from the store wasn't working.
Canada also has the largest *freshwater* island on earth: Manitoulin. The island is in a lake and is so big that it's got it's own lake which has an island. It's home to Wikwemekong First Nation. Pretty nice place... except the mosquitos.
There’s a desert in Yukon Canada too. The Carcross Desert which is 1 square mile of sand dunes. Technically not a desert because the humidity is higher than the technical specifications used to describe a desert and it rains up to 18-19 inches a year on average, but it looks like a desert to me!
@Aussie Tash I was looking up if I could ship cheese curds to Australia. To my surprise I found were you can purchase them there, no longer on the band list. Unfortunately they aren’t from Canada, but they are from the cheese capital of the US, so really squeaky deal. Look up, Pure Dairy, PTY Ltd. Australia. Yeah! You can have real poutine. 🥰
Another fun fact John Lennon performed with the plastic Ono band for the first time at the Toronto Rock revival festival in 1969 not long after that he left the Beatles
I was on a boat tour out of Trinity Bay in Nfld and we saw bluefin tuna, Fin whales, Orcas, a Humpback whale and a school of dolphins chasing their lunch. All within four hours.
There’s also one along the southern shores of Lake Athabasca in northern Saskatchewan. They stretch for about 100 km, they are the tallest dunes in Canada and are the farthest north in the world.
The word that the name Canada came from is spelled Kanata, a Huron-Iroquois word meaning village or settlement. Bagged Milk 75%? That seems a bit high to me, although I believe it is popular in Ontario and Quebec which are the most populous provinces. Don't even see it here in Vancouver, our milk is mostly in cardboard cartons or plastic jugs. Ellesmere Island is the 3rd largest in Canada, only slightly smaller than Great Britain. It's in the Arctic, our Northernmost island with a population of 146. I don't think you want to go there. The largest is Baffin Island, also in the Arctic, with a population of 11,000. Vancouver Island falls in the middle at #2 with a population approaching 1 million. Great place to visit, especially the provincial capital Victoria.
We also have the largest network of multi use trails in the world. Look up the TransCanada trail system that runs through almost every province and territory in the country.
The CN Tower once a year does the climb to raise money for the world wildlife foundation, I have done it twice it’s some hard work because there’s I don’t know how many thousands of stairs that you have to climb up but you feel really good once it’s done and the last time I did it I beat my first time score
Climbing all those stairs is actually a scary thought when you haven’t done it before lol but, some friends and I decided we were going to do it and the secret is to stretch before hand take it and easy pace and every so often stretch some more lol. But it was fun we made a day of it both times that we went where we did the climb and then went out for brunch
My name is at the top of the CN Tower when it was built some of the public schools in Toronto got to sign the last piece of the top that was lifted into place by a sky crane helicopter
I lived In Churchill, Manitoba , I walked home from a party one night, I looked up, bear truck in front of me, I looked back, bear truck behind me. Omfg , polar bear in alley with me. Ran to nearest house, unlocked, and ran in. So scared, but people left their houses open for such instances
@@nancymilawski1048 …and don’t forget the USA states such as Vermont, New York, Main and Wisconsin that produce maple syrup. In the United States, a syrup must be made almost entirely from maple sap to be labelled as "maple", though states such as Vermont and New York have more restrictive definitions.
I grew up in Canada's hottest place - in fact my house was only a few km from Spotted Lake, that they showed in the video. Temperatures can get up to 50C there. I came home from Alert in July one year where it was around freezing to 48C back home! Of course, I live in the Klondike, Yukon now, not far (as the crow flies!) from Snag. We are generally the coldest place on the planet about a dozen times year, getting into the -50'sC. We also have a new time zone now: Yukon. We are the same as the Pacific in summer, and Mountain in winter as we do not change to Daylight Savings. Of course, it means we are two hours ahead of where we should be!
Coastlines you have them hands down. Australia has some of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. As for bugs yes we may have 55000 different bugs here, they also aren't out to kill you. I seen some of your bugs, some are huge...lol.
said Canada / Denmark island issue was rectified a few months back 1/2 is Canada ... 1/2 is Danish been since confusing some as Canada & Denmark now share an international border
Greetings I am of Native decent registered under C31 ( grandparent) with a Haudenosaunee (Mohawk Nation ) in Ontario, However I currently reside near both the Saugeen Ojibway Nation reserve & Sauble Beach ( #36 Beach bonanza 13.25) Until just recently earlier this year Sauble was approx. 11 km long technically it still is however this past spring the Saugeen Nation reclaimed the 1st 2-3 km of the beach 😊 in a court case against Sauble still the same pubic beach etc. only difference is the Nation now owns from the sign to six street approx. 2-3 km & the town owns the rest now.
Being that the narrator wasn't Canadian we can add two more times that Canada has been invaded. Once more in 1838 when the outcome was 6 Americans were hanged in London Ontario and 10 more hanged at the city jail in Kingston Ontario and the leader hanged at Fort Henry. The rest loaded on ships at Montreal and taken to the penial colony in Australia. then again in 1866 with the Fenian Raids. How did I know the narrator isn't Canadian? He pronounced Cartier wrong..Canada has Kangaroo's, cacti and deserts. Can you saddle those big Kangaroos?
It's true, Canada does indeed have over 55 million types of insects and 99% of them are in the genus of 'mosquito'. The rest are in the frog family I think. Wait... on second thought I'm not sure frogs are insects but I damned sure know that I shouldn't have taken that last toke. 😂
In Canada the general law for retail stores and restaurants is “no shirt, no shoes, no service”.
Nope they will claim religious rights or inclusion or men going into women's washrooms,
For our retail establishments, there is a rule no shirt, no shoe's no service. It's a public heath thing

Coastlines you have them hands down. Australia has some of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. As for bugs yes we may have 55000 different bugs here, they also aren't out to kill you. I seen some of your bugs, some are huge...lol.

Greetings I am of Native decent registered under C31 ( grandparent) with a Haudenosaunee (Mohawk Nation ) in Ontario, However I currently reside near both the Saugeen Ojibway Nation reserve & Sauble Beach ( #36 Beach bonanza 13.25)
Until just recently earlier this year Sauble was approx. 11 km long technically it still is however this past spring the Saugeen Nation reclaimed the 1st 2-3 km of the beach 😊 in a court case against Sauble still the same pubic beach etc. only difference is the Nation now owns from the sign to six street approx. 2-3 km & the town owns the rest now.
Just come on over! Your always welcome!
Forget just Quebec City ....... I think we should build a wall around the entire province of Quebec .... lmao !!!
Being that the narrator wasn't Canadian we can add two more times that Canada has been invaded. Once more in 1838 when the outcome was 6 Americans were hanged in London Ontario and 10 more hanged at the city jail in Kingston Ontario and the leader hanged at Fort Henry. The rest loaded on ships at Montreal and taken to the penial colony in Australia. then again in 1866 with the Fenian Raids. How did I know the narrator isn't Canadian? He pronounced Cartier wrong..Canada has Kangaroo's, cacti and deserts. Can you saddle those big Kangaroos?
Vancouver has never hosted the Summer Olympics.
Technically the north also has a desert, a snow desert.
I'm canadian and I know about the winter olympics in Vancouver. . .But summer game? When?

I live in Canada never new there was a law about smelling bad 🇨🇦
It's true, Canada does indeed have over 55 million types of insects and 99% of them are in the genus of 'mosquito'. The rest are in the frog family I think. Wait... on second thought I'm not sure frogs are insects but I damned sure know that I shouldn't have taken that last toke. 😂
our beaches are a bit cold though....
Green roofs are to help lower the carbon blueprint, and it cools the building.
Hans Island has been settled by JT govt. Denmark and Canada now each get half.
60-40 in favor of Denmark.
