Canada's Wonderland

Pop Culture
Canada's Wonderland in Vaughan, north of Toronto, became Canada's largest theme park after opening in 1981 on 330 acres to fill the region's loss of a major seasonal amusement park. Developed by Taft Broadcasting and Great-West Life, it helped spur growth north of the city despite early controversy over traffic and competition. Its design centered on Wonder Mountain and International Street, and it later changed ownership from Paramount to Cedar Fair, regaining its original name in 2007. By 2022 it was North America's most visited seasonal amusement park, known for its expansive ride collection, water park, wooden coasters, and major entertainment venues.
