As always, I'm Dan from The New Travel. Thanks for watching!

Who would be crazy enough to leave the epic landscapes of New Zealand for the extreme cold of Northern Canada? Paige Saunders, that's who. Today we talk about the realities of life up North. A place that most Canadians (myself included) have never dared to set foot. I actually filmed this video way back in October. At the time, I was thinking it was too early for a winter video so I decided to hold off for a couple months. Then I started travelling and forgot about it. Now, winter is almost over. Opps! I guess I'm bad at this UA-cam stuff. But hey, like, whatever, man. The point is: it's here. So grab a cup of hot chocolate, put on your thickest toque, and enjoy the video, bud. It's Northern Canada. Let's go!
Oh and subscribe to Paige's channel. It's cool:

That part about taking winters seriously for the changes you encounter mentally, is so relevant! Thanks for that
After a friend of my watched this, he messaged me to say there was a raven in YK who became friends with a guy and used to fly around town following him whenever he left his house.
Footage of where he actually lives would have been a nice addition but still an interesting interview.
Quebec City. Worth the trip. Check it out.
Best way, if you can do it, is to DRIVE through Quebec from Montreal to Quebec City in the autumn when the foliage is turning color. Beautiful. Cheers.
Very interesting video!!! I'm a Mexican living in wpg so I love these videos. Can't wait for it to get warm here... Come in the summer you probably know it's super nice
"There's a day in spring when you can hear the snow melt, like rain." - Paige Saunders (paraphrased). That's like Jack London- or Farley Mowat-level imagery
Cool topic, I hope you get the chance to visit northern Canada one day. I would love to watch those videos! 🐢
My camera is shivering just thinking about it. But yes, that'd be a lot of fun!
Really interesting conversation
Thanks!
Absolutely fascinating interview. Thank you for sharing and uploading!
Amazing interview and amazing guest!
I dig the having-a-drink-with-a-local interview format. I think your interview videos fit in nicely alongside your other videos that are more of a singular view of wandering around and sharing your discoveries! 😁🐢
I liked this format a lot, I hope one day I can live in Canada and it might be in nortern Canada so this video was really interesting c:
Great insights!
Loved this!
I don’t usually leave comments.. but this interview was a welcome watch after being out of the county for some time. I’m from Ottawa originally and later lived in Montreal for 6 years after turning 18. I’ve also travelled coast to coast along Canada’s south. That said I’ve been living in Australia for 6 months and this video had me homesick knowing how much of home I haven’t experienced.. keep doing what you’re doing man. I appreciate the hell out of your content (seen your other stuff too especially the Montreal street interviews etc). Happy to be a subscriber eh ✌️
This was a great video on life in Yellowknife. Yellowknife is fascinating to me because it's so far removed from the rest of Canada, yet it's a fully functional city. I gotta admit, being from Vancouver, the extreme cold of the north is terrifying, but I think it's something I'd like to experience one day. Anyway, I'll be visiting Yellowknife this summer, and hopefully again in winter.
THank you !! Thank you !! Thank you for this video !!!!
Cheers expat!
i love the flow and editing. so effective. I was just there in BC. Ontario is so huge and cold.
Thanks :)
@@TheNewTravel welcome!!
Watch it till the end, grate insight! 🐢
I love how genuine your videos are.
Thanks! I try to keep it real.
Good video Dan! It was a good format his stories were interesting. I think this format could work in Mexico too interviews with folks there. 😎🇲🇽⛱☀️
I’m going to be moving to YK in Sep, a bit intimidated yet excited at the same time.
Loved it! through the end Ciao ragazzi!!!
I just miss the northing lights in winter love being outside at nights.
Great video Dan.
I like the long interview format. I'm not a short-attention-span sort of person. Please do more. Try and find interesting people in your travels and help us to meet them.
And guess what Dan? This time I saw my name floating past your head at the end.
I'm a proud supporter of The New Travel.
I would support you even if you were on OnlyFans. Though somehow I doubt that's going to happen.
Very nice.
I would love to visit Canada but 😒 I hate Texas cold weather!! Maybe be there for a week during fall. Saludos Dan
Sorry to reply to a 1 year old comment, but Canada is very warm in summer, it is between 25 and 40 degrees celcius (77 to 104 farenheit)
Im pretty certain that they dont keep the walk in coolers at liqour stores at -5 degrees celcius. Its usually like 2 to 5 degrees celcius.
Love the format, hate the handheld camera
For the second time, again: thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you so much for this straight talk. Many many many times I planned to go Northernmost Canada only to see northern lights and I knew deep in my hart, been a Mexican that lived 12 years in Canada, that cities like Yellownife and Whitehors will be crap and nothing to see besides the famous Northern lights ... and to see a guy in this video who is living there saying that "they're like crapy fireworks" gee man thanks !!! I know now that Iceland or Scandinavia is the place to go !!!
Are they not called toques? I live in BC and have never heard any other name for em
👍👍👍
I wanna live in Calgary and I'm hesitant about it leave alone Yellowknife
Have you been to America?
14:00 why would people from Sweden come to NWT when they could just go to northern Sweden or Norway?
Yeah that makes no sense. Sounds like cap to me.
The magnetic pole is currently located in the North West Territories. It is the place where it is more probable to see the northern lights.
@@eliasl1265 Wow, thanks. I didn't consider that.
As an Ethiopian, this was the last place I expected to hear about Ethiopia! lol
Hahaha
0:07 Monterrey Mexico😃😄
Toque is not a slang word. It’s a Canadianism and completely fine as an English word
Fair enough. In my head, I sometimes think of "slang" as any sort of regional term that isn't widely known to other places. But maybe that's not technically true
You call me punjab
Yt gears pls
What's yt gears?
@@TheNewTravelvedio on ur youtube gears pls
Please get this comment to the top!
Why? 😛
@@TheNewTravel why not ehh. 😂
who says North Americans don't have culture? damn near the entire world lives in some way with American culture
It would be nice if you learned more about Canada instead of repeating, "I'm a bad Canadian!" You didn't know Yellowknife was above the tree line? Please!... Also, please don't interrupt the people you interview and force them to digress from the topic they want to discuss. Paige was going to compare his first "rookie" year in Yellowknife to his subsequent years there, but you forced him off topic. I was really looking forward to the comparison, so that was a disappointment.
