CANADA—Manitoulin Island residents and those who love the Island are being reminded to vote to have Manitoulin named as one of the 10 top places to visit in Canada!
As was published in the April 9, 2025 edition of The Expositor, “Oh Canada! The Current (on CBC Radio) is building a Canadian travel bucket list. Help us pick from these 20 locations (which includes Manitoulin Island),” a CBC The Current website notes.
“We asked for your favourite Canadian travel spots, and you certainly delivered,” said The Current, on March 31. “As tensions between Canada and the US simmer and many folks look to keep their travel dollars at home, The Current set out to build a bucket list of Canadian travel destinations, made up of your (listener) suggestions.”

“Listeners sent 2,000 destination suggestions, of all kinds, from across the 10 provinces and three territories. Suggestions ranged from towns, to national parks, to rivers or specific roadways,” The Current reported. They narrowed it down to a shortlist of 20 destinations, “through a not-so-scientific process. We want to celebrate this big, beautiful country, which means we considered geography in order to highlight locations coast to coast to coast.”
The Current indicated it still needs to narrow the list down to the top 10.
“Listeners can vote once per day, so come back each day until voting closes on April 30, 2025, to give your favourite place the best chance of making the final bucket list,” The Current release explains.
