The Canada Is Awesome network has websites and social media extensions in Vancouver, Squamish, Calgary and Toronto, with many more on the horizon. Our goal is simple: we let people know about all of the awesome things that make their Canadian cities great, despite the bad. I'm the founder of this network and each week in this What's Awesome post I bring you the top stories from each of our properties, giving you access to the best of our content all in one place.

CALGARY

The Cupcakes of Calgary: Yelp’s Fave Five

Let’s not kid ourselves: There is nothing better than a sweet indulgence you can fit in the palm of your hand. So forget the food trend forecast! This week, we’re eating cupcakes for every meal, and we don’t care what anyone has to say about it!

SQUAMISH

Need a ride? This site makes finding one easy.

If you commute to Vancouver or Whistler, as many of us do, you’ll want to bookmark this. HitchPlanet is a community of more than 10,000 members that helps reduce the cost of commuting for both drivers and passengers making the daily trek along the Sea to Sky highway.

TORONTO

Your Best Photos from Toronto in 2014

We have run the numbers and found the most viewed Daily Photos of 2014. The Daily Flickr Pickr chooses a photo a day from our public group pool on Flickr and posts it on our website.

VANCOUVER

10 of the Best Road Trips from Vancouver

As the price of gas dips close to $1.00/litre we figured now would be a great time to share the last 10 destinations from our On The Road To series sponsored by Toyota BC. Most of these are accessible in the winter but you might want to check the weather and the driving conditions before you head out!
