GoMedia Canada—Discover your piece of island paradise on Canada’s million-acre farm Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, September 8-12, 2013 With an anthology of story ideas as vast as our landscapes and a breadth of experiences as deep as the oceans that surround us, Canada offers the ideal playground for the explorer in us all. We invite you to uncover the wealth of Canadian travel news and experience the marvels of the country at the tenth annual GoMedia Canada Marketplace–Canada’s premier international travel media event.
