VIA Rail Canada (VIA Rail) is offering an exciting opportunity to travel through the beautiful Canadian landscapes and create special memories with a contest to mark Canada Day. The country’s national passenger rail service is presenting the National Canada Day Contest to encourage Canadians to travel by train to discover the country and reconnect with friends and family.

Until July 3, enter the contest for a chance to win one of two train trips, for four people, to the Canadian destination of your choice (a maximum value of $15,000 each).

And throughout the year, newcomers to Canada can also access various special offers through the Institute of Canadian Citizenship’s Canoo program. Through the Canoo 2.0 app, the rail service offers permanent residents a 50 per cent discount on the best available fare for one adult and up to four of their children.

“…There is no better way to fall in love with this country, and truly make it your home, than to explore it by train. Encouraging newcomers to Canada to travel this country by rail is an enchanting way to welcome them, and support them, as they discover the beauty and splendour of their new home,” says Martin R. Landry, Chief Commercial Officer, VIA Rail.
