The seven, ok eight wonders of Canada-what have I seen?

"According to a recent Environics survey of Canadians' travel preferences done by MasterCard Canada, 51% of respondents ranked Niagara Falls as the top wonder. After that, it was the Rockies (45%); CN Tower (29%); The Great Lakes (14%); The St. Lawrence Seaway, Bay of Fundy, the Arctic, and Quebec's Perce Rock (5% each)."(this is from Canoe online)

Ok-these are good choices, and it is neat that I have seen most of them except for the Bay of Fundy, the Arctic and Quebec's Perce Rock. I have to say though, of the ones I have seen, Niagara Falls when seen in person, stands out far ahead of the others.(I guess that is why it is number one) The falls alone were unreal, really bloody huge-Dad was the most struck by them out of everyone we have taken there-the boat tour through them was one of those things you have experience to believe-the whirlpool, even just the gorge. Our fave for sure, I agree with the rockies next, but I was not that excited about the CN tower-I would have put the great lakes next, then the St. Lawrence Seaway, then the CN tower. Dave has been to the arctic, but we will check out the last two later!
