What to do in Canada at EPCOT

The short answer

The Canada pavilion opened in 1982, built around a Hotel du Canada modelled on Ottawa’s Château Laurier, and gardens inspired by the Butchart Gardens near Victoria. It has 2 attractions, shows and meets, 3 places to eat and drink and 2 shops. To see: Canada Far and Wide in Circle-Vision 360 and Entertainment at Canada Mill Stage. The cheapest meal on our pages here is Canada Popcorn Cart, about $7 a head.
