The Trans Canada Trail plays a developing role in providing Canadians with a way to stay physically active and healthy. The trail is a multi-use recreational trail which, when complete, will unite all the provinces of our great country with a combination of gravel roads, footpaths, urban streets and canoe routes.

The trail is a massive undertaking; its southern route from Victoria to St. John's will cover approximately 12,000 km - the trail will not be completely intact until 2017! In any case, I intend to use as much as possible of it to travel Canada's entire length by human-powered travel, from Pacific coast to Atlantic coast.

The route I intend to take is outlined in orange. You will notice a blue line through Northern Ontario; because of slow progress in trail development in this region, there are huge gaps existing between Kenora and Thunder Bay. Therefore, I propose to travel by water using the old Ojibway and Voyageur fur-trading canoe route. This is no short-cut; it is a gruelling 670 km paddle!
