Whitewater Recreation In Canada
Whitewater recreation is easily available in many parts of Canada. Canada is the second largest country in the world and holds a large percentage of the fresh water found on the planet. Hundreds of rivers that flow out of the mountains, across the prairies and the tundra provide many diverse and outstanding recreational opportunities for whitewater kayakers, canoeists and rafters.
Whitewater is not limited to freshwater streams. Significant features are created in tidal rapids, particularly seen on the west and east coasts. Boaters also share the ocean surf with board surfers.

Famous quotes containing the words recreation and/or canada:
“Media mystifications should not obfuscate a simple, perceivable fact; Black teenage girls do not create poverty by having babies. Quite the contrary, they have babies at such a young age precisely because they are poor—because they do not have the opportunity to acquire an education, because meaningful, well-paying jobs and creative forms of recreation are not accessible to them ... because safe, effective forms of contraception are not available to them.”
—Angela Davis (b. 1944)
“I do not consider divorce an evil by any means. It is just as much a refuge for women married to brutal men as Canada was to the slaves of brutal masters.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
