A witty and heartfelt journey across Canada through the eyes of acclaimed writer Will Ferguson. From soaring over Newfoundland in a seaplane to paddling through the quiet northern wilderness, Ferguson explores the breathtaking landscapes and hidden stories of his homelandsometimes accompanied by his curious four-year-old son.

Traversing coast to coast, he visits places both iconic and obscure: the dramatic cliffs of Cape Spear, the serene streets of Victoria, the haunting routes of the Underground Railroad, and the icy expanse of the Arctic. With humor and insight, Ferguson digs beneath the surface of Canadian identity, poking holes in national myths while embracing the eccentricities that define the country.

Part travelogue, part historical dive, and part cultural commentary, Beauty Tips from Moose Jaw is more than a travel memoirit’s a deeply personal tribute to Canadas contradictions, curiosities, and quiet charms, told in the voice of one of its most engaging storytellers.
