Dazzling Arctic cruise itineraries
The rugged terrain, extreme climate, and flourishing wildlife of Northern Canada have whispered promises of adventure to centuries of international explorers and tourists. Yukon, the Northwest Territory, Nunavut, and northern portions of Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Quebec comprise this vast region that reaches up into pristine Arctic waters. According to recent census data just over 100,000 people inhabit the North, a region roughly the size of Western Europe. Close to 70 percent of residents are aboriginals, predominantly Inuit but also Chipewyan and other First Nations peoples.
