This site is a MUST! I haven't visited every museum in the country, but I still believe this is easily the very best, most interactive and exciting museum the country has to offer. The "History of Canada" exhibit alone will take an entire afternoon and engross you interactively in full-sized dioramas of the people and places of our country's past. Don't forget to leave a good few hours for the amazing Children's Museum, too! Oh, and I almost forgot to mention the Imax theatre. A bit expensive - we brought my brother-in-law along and he paid. If you don't have a brother-in-law, splurge: it's worth the big bucks for this gem of a museum.
