Best Canadian Small Town

[shootingstar]

Hey, eclectic, you might as well promote Alberta near the border..not that much further away.

Now that we've given the impression that Eastern Canada is a hard place to figure out oodles of suggestions for best little town with great scenery and routes for day bike trips ..

Still think Maritime provinces or Quebec (for its "foreigness" due to its French-Canadian roots and language is a good one.)

Mont Tremblant in quebec in the summer offers all sorts of things. (winter it's known for skiing.) It's something like a smaller Whistler, B.C., but it's an area known for mountain biking. There are routes for road cycling, include a Route Verte route nearby. We were stationed there for 3-4 days in June a few years ago and did cycle around.

Have you been to Gaspe Peninsula in Quebec? Sight of Perce Rock. I believe there is camping site there.

I got myself mixed up on St. Pierre island ..closer to Newfoundland. I was thinking of the Magdelan Islands which are in the mouth of St. Lawrence River. Magdelan Islands are part of Quebec province.
