Everyone gets a little leery of airline luggage checking fees, overweight baggage penalties, high shipping costs, and customs restrictions, so bringing home any souvenir can be quite difficult. That is why the Canada Trading Company makes it easy for you to “grab and go” items with virtually no weight, that brand themselves with “Niagara Falls”, “Canada”, and even some items specific to an attraction that you visited here. Coffee mugs, shot glasses, pens, postcards, books and key chains would fall under this category.

4. Clothing/Purses

7. Maple Syrup

This is the biggest seller, so it deserves its own category. Specific to Canada, the maple syrup production process was adopted by the aboriginals. In springtime, when the nights are still cold, water from the soil is absorbed into the maple tree. During the day, the warmer temperature creates pressure that pushes the water back down to the bottom of the tree, making it easy to collect the precious maple sap. The sap is gathered over 12 to 20 days, usually between early March and late April, according to the region.

The basic process of tapping maple trees to collect the sap and then boiling it down to make maple syrup and sugar has endured for centuries, and our pure Canadian maple syrup, maple taffy, maple sugar, cookies, spreads, butter, and candies fly off the shelves.

8. Encased Bugs

10. Monague Dream Catchers

These sell like hotcakes. They are 100% handcrafted in Canada, and you can see that each dream catcher is made with love and care. No two are exactly alike. This company was awarded with the “Commemorative Medal for the 125th Anniversary of the Confederation of Canada” by the Governor General of Canada.

The dream catcher is hung above a sleeping area in a place where the morning light can hit it. The nature of the dream catcher is that it will attract all sorts of dreams to its webs. When bad dreams come, they don’t know the way through the web and get caught in the webbing where the first light of day causes them to melt away and perish. The good dreams know the way go through the center of the web, and slide down the feather to the sleeper below.
