Ontario, the province where the Canadian capital is located and the land of many lakes. It is also in this province that you can find the famous Niagara Falls. But if Niagara Falls is not enough for you, the town of Hamilton in Ontario is known as the waterfall capital of the world boasting more than 100 waterfalls. Speaking of boasting, the longest street in the world, Yonge Street, is located in Toronto, Ontario. About 200 "klicks" (kilometers in Ontario) west of Toronto, the town of London had at one point the largest concentration of serial killers. But not everything is morbid in this town; London, Ontario is also the place where the Flame of Hope burns in honor of those who have died due to diabetes until a cure for the disease is found. Ontario is also the backdrop for some good reads, like the twelve ones listed here:
