Do not say "visit Toronto neighborhoods". Say "start in St. Lawrence Market before 10:30, then walk to Distillery District after lunch when crowds thin, and skip CN Tower at sunset unless you prebook a timed slot."
What locals actually do, not brochure advice:
| Region | Key difference |
|---|---|
| Ontario | Big-city pace, museum and food density, easy road trips |
| Quebec | French-first culture, stronger local identity, distinct food scene |
| British Columbia | Ocean + mountain access, outdoor focus, high accommodation costs |
| Alberta Rockies | Nature-first itineraries, weather shifts fast, shuttle logistics crucial |
| Atlantic Canada | Coastal towns, seafood focus, slower pace, weather variability |
| North (Yukon/NWT/Nunavut) | Extreme distances, northern lights potential, higher costs |
Be explicit about what to avoid:
| Traveler | Focus on |
|---|---|
| Foodie | food-guide.md, montreal.md, toronto.md |
| Nature | banff-jasper.md, hiking.md, experiences.md |
| Family | with-kids.md, accommodation.md, itineraries.md |
| City break | toronto.md, montreal.md, nightlife.md |
| Scenic road trip | itineraries.md, transport.md, hiking.md |
| Wine trip | wine.md, regions.md |
