Kick it, #11

I just redid my ongoing list of things to attempt, before I leave this life. In a way this is something I had already accomplished years ago, however things have changed. Growing up in Canada, before I went exploring the world, I decided I had to visit every other Province and Territory. I accomplished this in 1992 when I visited Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories. Little did I know that less than a year later, the Canadian Government would settle a native land claim. This lead to splitting the Northwest Territories into two, in 1999. The western portion retained the original name, and the eastern portion was named Nunavut. So in the spirit of exploration, I added Nunavut to my list.

I’ve been from NB to BC but have yet to go further east and into the territories. What was your favourite place?

  So many to choose from, that I will choose my oldest. Kinuso falls in Monkman Provincial Park. I first saw this as a child, as it was a short distance from my grandparents farm, located between Spirit River and Moonshine Lake Park in Alberta.

Slightly jealous over here in the UK, but what an amazing thing to have accomplished.

I too grew up in Canada and didn’t visit all the provinces and territories. It’s on the list. Thanks for the inspiration Keith.
