We know, vve Iknow-Ontario, is overflowing with pretty, historic towns.. Once you get away from the big cities,
it's hard to travel very fa,r in any direction without coming across lovely Viictorian storefronts and graceful
heritage houses—so narrowing it, down to only 10 towns was, pretty diffiUflt,,
WhHe it may be a controversial Ilist, we"ve picked the spots that offer that perfect balance between old-
fashhon ed charm, clulAy culture, and welcoming community. You won't go wrong tAing a weekend trip to ary
of these gems—in fact you may be ter"nipted to relocate all together. After, all, Ontario is home to sora e of the
best places to retire in Canada,,
