Any thoughts would be appreciated...
Well anywhere in Canada will be cold that time of year
Halifax is a great place to visit...really nice people and lots of great food and partying...depending on what you are looking for of course...it's not a very big city so it is quite easy to get around and inexpensive....Ottawa is also a lot of fun...a little more expensive but definitly worth the visit...the people there are very friendly also....Quebec City is absolutely beautiful and worth the trip....the majority of people speak french so bring a dictionary...hope this helps a little bit
