We wander along Main Street in Sackville, New Brunswick; explore Nakusp, B.C., which may have been the home of an illegitimate child of royalty; and watch the icebergs float by in Ferryland, Newfoundland.Each town Stuart visits tells us a little about Canada's rich and often forgotten history and a lot about who Canadians are today.
