To me, Canada is at the top of my travel wish list. As the second largest country in the world, the population of Canada is over 38 million. The capital city is Ottawa and the largest city is Toronto.
For one thing, Canada is famous for its natural beauty. It's said that there are many wonderful mountains and forests in the country. It's a good place to get close to nature. For another thing, the winter of Canada is great. You can not only go skiing in the snowy mountains but also see the Northern Lights. It's really worth a visit!
I expect to go to Canada one day. I can't wait to see some bears in the wild and ski in the mountains.
Thankyou.
