The Last of Us, HBO’s latest hit series, was filmed entirely in Alberta, so Travel Alberta is compiling all the locations seen in the show in one handy guide for tourists looking to explore the province.

In what’s a shock to probably no one, a new report shows that not a single city in Canada is truly affordable for people under the age of 30.  The findings from Youthful Cities’ Real Affordability Index show that most sub-30 Canadians living in both big and small cities face an average deficit of over $700 per month, […]

It’s an exciting time for Canadian streetwear. In addition to a slew of designers putting the country’s creativity on the world stage, we’ve opened up after two years of restrictions and physical retail is kicking back into gear.

He is our generation’s answer to the one effortlessly cool scene kid of the early aughts: the self-effacing wuderkind has a penchant for a very self-aware brand of irony, and grew up in Nepalese culture, which […]

Things don’t seem to be slowing down for pop sensation Tate McRae. The 17-year-old Calgary native was recently announced as Apple Music’s Up Next artist for this month, making her the fourth Canadian to be featured and joining a roster of talented artists like Daniel Caesar, Megan Thee Stallion, Jesse Reyez, and Billie Eilish. This, after […]

Making it as a restaurant in some of Canada’s biggest foodie cities on a good year requires hustle, timing, that secret sauce, and a ton of luck.
