I have lived in thunder Bay all my life and it is so beautiful even though we get blizzards in the winter sometimes I still love Mount MCK and the sleeping giant. It’s all so beautiful.

I've lived here for 40years and love my home town! I would add that we have many Pow Wows up on Anemki Wajiw, the stands in the background at the base of the mountain are surrounding a most excellent sacred dance arena.Fort William First Nations hosts largest gathering usually at the end of June and all are welcome. Thanks for highlighting Thunder Bay!

Glad you enjoyed our city. Cool video 👍

Sorry you got a ticket here though, parking can be a little confusing.

Thank you for stopping in! I love showing my out of town guests around as there is a lot to experience. I am going to post this on my facebook page and see if it gets grabbed for marketing.

This is a pretty good video, I was searching info on Thunder Bay and this is one of the few videos that isn't just a collage of photos from Google

Thunder Bay is actually an amalgamation of two cities so it is spread far. I’ve lived here most of my life and if you are into outdoors activities, you’ll love it!

THANK YOU for sharing your experience in Thunder Bay

Born in 64 in Fort William, now named Thunder Bay after the amalgamation with Port Arthur. Live in Westfort all 60 of my years and will be buried looking at Mt Mckay from the cemetery, just like i see it out my back door every day

I was there in the summer and I love it there

[mikematson]

I was born in Thunder Bay. Have a couple relatives there still.. I miss the area

I love how empty it is. Not crowded at all. We just went to Scotland and everywhere we went were people. We thought the Isle of Skye would be more isolated... whoops, completely wrong on that one. We are only about 8 or 9 hours away from here. We live a little south of Sault MI/Ontario.

Love your video of our city. Just a little tidbit... Thunder Bay has the largest Finnish population outside of Finland!

[blingbling]

I’ve lived here my whole life. The outdoor recreation opportunities are convenient and inexpensive. The weather is trying to turn you into a popsicle half the year. Good employment and your balling in the hood. Keep your big city lifestyle to yourself and you’ll have a quite time. Our rent is just over $800 a month all inclusive. Most of the folks are over 50.

Great vlog! Where was the last shot taken? The view was beautiful :)

[PahaLukki]

Never knew about such a huge Finnish population in Thunder Bay. I was just browsing at cities from the emptiest regions in Canada, only to find out you can get pancakes and sauna there.

The influence of the lake has everything to do with the climate here. Being near the shoreline it may be cool because of the breeze off of the cold waters of lake superior and in neighbourhoods farther from the lake it could be hot. The highest temperature I’ve ever experienced is 40°C Which is over 100°F. That doesn’t happen very often, your average summer day is around 27.
Everything is nicer when the sun is shining.

Thanks for the video I really like it!! I think it’s awesome you can pick your own amethyst!! This is awesome, especially because in the US amethyst products can be pricey. :)
