Where is Upper Canada??

How Far up is Upper Canada?

For many new Canadians this must be a frustrating question every time they see the term "Upper Canada", does this mean upper from the U.S. or upper like the Arctic, or Northern Canada. United Empire Loyalists may have no problem with defining this concept, however I would bet that most Canadian have difficulty distinguishing the difference between Upper and Lower Canada. A good place to start is Upper Canada Village north east of Toronto. According to the Toronto Star, this is ranked as one of the top 10 attractions in Canada by Michelin Guide.
This is Canada before confederation (pre 1867). See Toronto Star article Journey of Discovery brings past to Life". If you are visiting the area near Morrisburg you can book hotel motel accommodation on-line in nearby Cornwall, Ontario
