Good map of Canada

Me too. I have a Rand McNally and a National Geographic road Atlas, both claiming United States and Canada but the Canadian provinces barely get any respect outside of the major metropolitan areas.

That's because outside the major metropolitan areas, there's not much of anything up here, except forests and rocks and muskeg and assorted wildlife, some benign and some dangerous, and an occasional passable road. Since we aren't a major world power in terms of military strength (our armed forces total around 100,000, including reserves) we rely largely on stealth and secrecy as our main defensive strategy. That includes creating maps with very little detail on where we are at any given moment, and where we're hiding the maple syrup. Our most famous Canadians don't even want to live here, like Celine Dion, William Shatner, and Jim Carrey (sorry about that last one).
Best bet when traveling in Canada - use a GPS unit with up to date maps and POIs. Although a good paper map from 1970 will still be pretty accurate, considering our limited new infrastructure spending since Trudeau's father was PM.
Know roughly where you want to end up, and then run a test route through your GPS to see what it will actually take in terms of time and distance. Up here the shortest distance from A to B sometimes involves the other 24 letters of the alphabet.
