Welcome to Northern Soul by Landsby
We are proud to present the inaugural issue of Northern Soul Magazine.
It is my hope that this magazine, and the incredible stories about Canadians in the hospitality and tourism industry, serves as inspiration to travel responsibly and engage meaningfully with Canada's distinct communities, landscapes, and cultures.
Thank you for joining us,

Editor's Note
Connection is a word we use a lot within our Landsby team.
It is integral to everything we do, from the relationships we build with local suppliers to the itineraries we create with our dedicated staff. As travellers ourselves, we know that the best way to ensure a successful trip is for the traveller to make real connections — with each other, with community hosts and with the destination itself.
We hope you will feel that sense of connection to Canada as you read the stories contained within these pages. We truly believe that travelling with purpose is the only way to go.
Thank you for taking this journey with us.
