"Big congrats to our neighbours at the Canadian Canoe Museum for making Time Magazine’s list of top places to visit in 2025! 🚣♂️👏 But hey, after you paddle your way through their amazing exhibits, why not row on over to the Peterborough Museum & Archives? We've got history, mystery, and probably fewer canoes—but way more surprises! 😉"
