Love Wheelers!! Came…read morehere for the first time last year in February for my cousin's birthday party and we had a lovely time with the family. We spent a cold but bright, sunny day walking around their property and enjoyed a delicious pancake breakfast. Since my fiance and I loved their organic maple syrup so much we ordered their little bottles as our wedding favours. I had contacted Wheeler's via their website and had been emailing back and forth for a few weeks in advance with a lovely lady named Tracy to get our order set up. This past weekend, my fiance and I finally made it back to Wheelers to pick up our favours and of course enjoy their food too. I opted for the one french toast and one pancake combo along with an order of maple baked beans. Bae ordered the same, but added on their housemade maple sausages to his meal. We also ordered coffees as well to enjoy with our brunch. Wheelers pancakes and french toast are epic. Super fluffy and oh so good. Obviously served alongside their delicious maple syrup - just very comforting and super satisfying. Pro tip : add a little splash of the good stuff (the maple syrup!) to your coffee - it's the best! Thanks, Wheelers for being so awesome!! Hope to come visit again soon.

There was so much content even limiting it to just Canadian flora and fauna. The building itself is impressive, and everything is nicely organized inside. Parking would be my one peeve. You can walk to it from the light rail if you're okay with that and it's night weather, but we found that for a group, it was actually cheaper to take a Lyft, ironically. While this museum is designed to be a great source of information for kids, adults will like it too.

The tour is unforgettable: you walk through a blast tunnel, go through decontamination, and see the medical bays and command rooms. The details are fascinating--from the propaganda rooms and rows of rainbow-colored typewriters to the simple cafeteria and commissary. It is history kept perfectly in time. The museum's leadership is just as impressive as the history. They have turned this site into a busy, successful business by offering escape rooms, summer camps, and private events. They make sure every inch of this bunker is used. Before you go, check out their event calendar. You aren't just taking a tour; you are seeing a masterclass in how to keep a museum thriving.

The layout is well organized, the history is thorough, the exhibits are interesting. One thing I truly appreciated is the total frankness of the documentation. They kept it real. Nothing was sugar-coated, nothing was whitewashed, they didn't attempt to erase or hide any history, and they made a point of trying to learn from past mistakes. Other places could learn from this. I hope the museum will be able to add on, to cover events in Canada's more recent history.

Frederic Remington (1861-1909) was born nearby in Canton NY and his family moved here to Ogdensburg…read morewhen he was eleven. At an early age, he had a talent for art. He attended the art school at Yale University and eventually went out west to Montana at age nineteen, returning to Ogdensburg and eventually his first publishing in 1886 at the age of twenty-five. He is perhaps best known for the sculpture "The Broncho Buster" which has a copy here on display. As well, a number of his other paintings of the west. The images have captions and there are art tours/discussions on a regular basis. I have encountered his works at the Great Plains Art Museum in Lincoln NE, the Denver Art Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts Houston. You will know it when you see it.
