Calgary has some breathtaking views to offer. Make sure you get out to some of the most beautiful mountains in all of Canada, such as Banff or Lake Louise. It is also home to the largest rodeo in the world, The Calgary Stampede. The Stampede is an annual rodeo exhibition that started in 1912 and has taken place every July since! On your way back, catch a ride on the Rocky Mountaineer. You’ll get to explore the incomparable beauty as you wind through the otherwise inaccessible Rocky Mountains.

Ottawa, Ontario

The capital of Canada has tons to offer! Being the capital of Canada, Ottawa has plenty of museums and galleries. You can take a tour of the Parliament Buildings to learn about the government, or just explore the pleasant grounds of Parliament Hill. Spend the afternoon shopping and eating throughout Ottawa!

Montreal, Quebec

Montreal is filled with pride! It is one of the most charming aspects of this romantic city. Visiting Montreal is like going on a European vacation without actually leaving North America. Throughout the summer, Montreal offers several Music festivals, including Osheaga. If you’re not into the whole festival scene, hit the trails of Mount Royal. Or perhaps you would prefer to explore the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal. No matter what you are into, I can guarantee that this city will have something to offer you!

This is inexpensive storage that operates 100% as advertised - they do not offer 24/7 access and do not charge 24/7 access pricing. They are incredibly responsive to requests to unlock doors and provide access. It is not fancy but if you need a clean, dry place to store your stuff, you can't beat these guys. Don't expect bells and/or whistles but you also won't be paying for them.

Have to phone to have buildings unlocked. Annoying.

Prices are 1/2 the price of other storage units but it shuts down (locked gates) from 10 am - 6 pm except if you have the enormous ground level outside facing units. Those hours are impossible. The technology getting items up to the second story is an actual forklift thats made stationary. You balance your items up the forklift (and you raise the wooden pallet up yourself) Then you must walk up stairs and hope their is a dolly available to wind precariously around tiny turning hallways. Budget carpentry and ancient carpet in the units. The trolleys sound and feel like their from 1980's and are either coached to disobey or they keep their own counsel. They say its secure but I had a neighbor pick something up and they weren't even asked for permission. I explicitly stated only I was to have access. They said they do not let it happen. The locks are your own, but the flip closure is attached by 3/4 wood screws easily and possibly quite quietly could be opened and emptied with no one batting an eye. A kid could detach it with anything. They have "24 hour security" which means a guy lives on site. Does he/she have CCTV access? Probably not, nor would you want that job. Are there motion sensors? Not likely as sometimes the lights won't turn on and finding a switch in the straggly wandering corridors is impossible. They do not offer insurance. You have to sign forms saying all the things you will and won't do, but they are not liable if anything happens: theft, fire, water, vandals, pests etcSo despite all those complaints, its still 4/5 only because of the prices.
