Fra ITM: Canadian Rockies: Banff, Kootenay and Yoho National Parks at 1:250,000 in a series of topographic survey maps of selected areas of British Columbia and the Canadian Rockies from ITMB with cartography from Canada’s national survey organization. Most sheets are printed on light, waterproof and tear- resistant plastic paper.

Whilst the Canadian Department of Natural Resources (previously Canada Map Office) decides whether to provide updated pre-printed editions of its survey mapping or switch to print-on-demand only, in 2007 it began co-operating with ITMB on this new series of maps with cartography of the Canadian topographic survey and additional tourist and recreational information provided by ITMB. The maps are double-sided, with either two 1:50,000 maps combined in one title, or a 1:250,000 map supplemented by more detailed coverage at 1:50,000.

In this title: four 1:250,000 Canadian Survey sheets are combined to provide coverage of the southern part of the Canadian Rockies, including Banff, Kootenay and Yoho National Parks, and stretching from the 50º north to Saskatchewan River crossing. Coverage east - west is from Calgary to the Upper Arrow Lake in BC. Elevation is given in feet, with contours at 500ft intervals (conversion chart to metres is provided). Extensive overprint highlights several different types of accommodation and camping facilities, recreational areas doe hiking, canoeing, horse riding, cross-country skiing, climbing, hand gliding, mountain biking, fishing, snowmobiling, etc. The map is printed on light, waterproof and tear-resistant plastic paper.

Fra ITM: 7th edition 2017. Times change, and a consensus has grown into a realization that the traditional indigenous name for the islands off BC's shore should be recognized. At the same time, the official name still recognizes the historical relationship of Queen Charlotte and the early days of British trading. We have added a new map of BC's coastline to the reverse side, covering from the US border north to Prince Rupert. As well, both sides have their own Top Attractions lists to focus attention on major sites, such as Ninstints at the southern tip of HG. As in the past, this edition is printed on tear-resistant waterproof paper. Coast in the scale 1:900.000 with inset maps of Vancouver & Victoria. Haida Gwaii in the scale 1:280.000.

4th Edition The historic Canadian province of Nova Scotia (New Scotland) was founded by the French as part of Acadia (now centered in New Brunswik). The fortress of Louisburg, on Cape Breton, was seized by the British, who founded Halifax in 1749. The colony grew rapidly, thanks to the American Revolution, and its many Loyalist settlements are today attractive tourist destinations.

The self-governing colony attended the 1775 Philadelphia Convention, but left in disgust over the radicalism expressed by the slave-owning colonies, preferring to remain loyal. As a result of fears that it would be invaded following the American Civil War. NS entered into discussions with other British American colonies, culminating in the founding of Canada as an independent country in 1867. 

Prince Edward Island followed a similar course, joining Canada in 1873. This double-sided map portrays both provinces in excellent detail, nothing all major attractions, towns, parks, roads, and ferries. Inset aps of Halifax/Dartmouth and Sydney are included.

Fra ITM: Alberta at 1:1,000,000 on a double-sided, indexed map from the Vancouver-based ITMB, with topography presented by altitude colouring rather than by just relief shading, with street plan of central Edmonton and Calgary, plus of Banff and Jasper resorts.

The Atlantic coast of Canada is blessed with some of the earliest European settlement areas in North America. There are three Canadian provinces that have been traditionally called "maritime" - New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. Newfoundland only became part of Canada in 1949, a century after the term Maritimes had become common usage, so is part of Atlantic Canada, but not the Maritime provinces. This double-sided regional map is great for those visiting all three provinces (ITMB also publishes separate maps of each province).

All the roads and towns are shown, as well as parks, camping areas, touristic attractions, and historic sites. The area is rich in history. Last summer, Lan and I took our two grandchildren on a month-long drive across Canada and visited Louisbourg, on Cape Breton, the French fortress that dominated French control of Quebec for many years. We also toured Green Gables, the actual farm made famous by L. M. Montgomery and her fictional Anne Shirley. Roosevelt's beloved estate is on Campobello Island, in New Brunswick. This is one of the most popular regions of North America to visit.

Fra ITM: To North Americans, there is only one “Great Lakes” – the waterway stretching far into the interior of the continent from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the tip of Lake Superior. This vast region has exerted a fundamental hold on the development of both the USA and Canada; first as a canoeing trade route for trapping furs, then as a means of settlement, and now as a water route to move products to world markets. The region is also densely populated with well-known touristic cities and attractions, and houses in excess of 100,000,000 people. Surprisingly, until now, there has never been a map for this interesting and historic part of the continent. Using this map, one can explore Lakes Ontario and Erie as circular routes; also Huron and Superior; visit Ottawa and Toronto, Chicago and Duluth, and find Fort William or the Wawa Goose. This is a double-sided map covering from Ottawa in the north to Pittsburgh and Columbus in the south and Duluth and Thunder Bay in the west. Both Canada and the USA portions of the Great Lakes Region are included.

Fra ITM: 2nd Edition The Rockies are North America's recreational back yard. Extending from Alaska to Mexico, the Rockies are one of the more recent mountain chains, having been formed about 30,000 years ago by tectonic plate movement. Previously, this title concentrated only on the Canadian portion of the Rocky Mountain region; with this edition, we have expend the coverage to cover the portion between where the mountain chain first becomes prominent in Canada's Yukon, down through Jasper and Banff national parks, and on into Idaho, Wyoming, utah, and Colorado. The chain extends southward through New mexico into Mexico and Central America, but we ended coverage Taos to show the bulk of this vast range of mountains. Inset maps of downtown Calgary, Vancouver, and Denver are included. Sorry, the simply wasn't room for more. A lovely map!

This is a new map for us, combining both the Canadian and the American portions of the Pacific coastline north from the Seattle area to the Alaska Panhandle, ending at the Glacier Bay National Park, which extends considerably north of the Bay itself. Side one concentrates on the Canadian portion, from Victoria north to the Queen Charlotte/Haida Gwaii islands, showing ferry routes and the routes most favoured by cruise ships. As a coastal map, it doesnt go very far inland, but shows the Coastal mountain range to good advantage.

Side two provides a very detailed map of that portion of Alaska known as the Panhandle a series of islands north and west of Canada that is very popular with cruisers. All parks and cruise line routes are shown. Interestingly, at the top end of Glacier Bay, the Canadian border splits the Panhandle from the rest of Alaska; not intentionally, but when the border was agreed upon in the early 1900s, no one realized that the glacier on that site might one day melt. Well, melt it has, leaving a kilometre-long stretch of beach that is part of Canada! Regardless, this map completes ITMB mapping of the Pacific coastline of North America rom the Bering Sea to Panama, a cartographic task that began decades ago.
