The US may be regarded as the amusement park capital of the world, but its neighbour to the north offers world-class excitement and thrills too. Some are short-lived; the annual Canada National Exhibition crams a lot of excitement into two crazy weeks in summer. And there’s even a Christmas-themed park, populated with elves and featuring a roller coaster pulled by Rudolph himself. From some of the highest-rated roller coasters on the planet to more sedate nursery rhyme-themed rides, these Canadian theme parks offer something for everyone.
