Going from Halifax you should stop off in New Brunswick and pay a visit to the only province without railways (okay, it sounds dumb) Prince Edward Island (it's worth a day trip to see Charlottown). Then Montreal is a must, especially the great white elephant of the Olympic stadium and it's surrounds.
No sounds interesting Almo, I like lots of different sights to see.
Haven't arranged AL yet. What time of year is best for Canada?
I like pleasant weather for walking in. Sunbathing weather not necessary.
To travel in Canada you'd need to make it (to get the best of it) May/September I would say but you can still get snow throughout. On the east coast the autumn lands in very quick and you get a fair amount of rain, same as the west, so early June late August is best, in my own experience anyway.
