• Las Vegas is a favorite winter destination for many Canadians.las vegas image by charles taylor from Fotolia.com
  
  Even though casinos can be found in many places across Canada, they don't match the glitter---and adrenaline rush---the Las Vegas Strip provides. This dazzling city of lights is a magnet for those north of the border, especially during the long winter months when most parts of Canada are buried in snow.
