8. Canada or Kanata?

This is the story of how Canada got its name. When French explorer Jacques Cartier met locals in the New World, they invited him to their Kanata, which means village. However, Cartier thought they were referring to the country, so he labeled the country like Canada.

The perfect topping for pancakes, authentic maple syrup was created in Canada. 80% of the world’s maple syrup is actually made in Canada, and 91% is made exclusively in Quebec.

In 1945, Ottawa kept a Dutch princess and her children safe during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands during World War II. So to say thank you, the Dutch sent Ottawa 100,000 tulip bulbs as a way to thank you, and since then, the Dutch have sent tulips every year hence the Canadian Tulip Festival in Ottawa in May.
