Things to Do in Canada Special Edition (Scratch Off)

The adventure that changed everything (and a Father's Day idea)

"I don't usually send outside our regular Wednesday newsletter, but I wanted to share something personal before Father's Day."

When I was 21, someone talked me into going white water rafting for my birthday.

I almost said no. I wasn't really an "adventure person" at the time — or at least I didn't think I was. But I went, and somewhere between the chaos of the rapids and making it out the other side, soaking wet and laughing, something shifted. That one experience genuinely changed how I saw myself and what I was capable of.

I've been chasing that feeling ever since. It's a big part of why Must Do Canada exists.

Here's what I've learned after years of exploring this country: most people don't lack the desire for adventure. They just never get the nudge.

That's exactly why we created the Must Do Canada Scratch-Off Adventure Cards. Fifty curated adventures in BC, Alberta, or Ontario — from iconic experiences to hidden gems — waiting to be discovered one scratch at a time. Each card includes icons to help you plan by budget, season, and location, plus a QR code for everything you need actually to go do it.

It's part game, part bucket list, part permission slip to finally do the things you keep putting off.

With Father's Day coming up on June 21st, we wanted to offer something special. For a limited time, we're offering free shipping across Canada on all orders — but only until June 10th, so it arrives in time.

If there's a dad in your life who loves Canada, the outdoors, or just needs a good excuse to get off the couch and into an adventure — this might be the most memorable $65 you spend this year.

SHOP NOW — FREE SHIPPING UNTIL JUNE 10 (use code “freeship”)
