Canadian gifts for large budgets
#1 A trip to Canada
Okay, let me start this list of Canadian gifts with the number one gift for someone who loves Canada:
A trip to Canada!
So if you have a large budget, head over to Skyscanner and book a flight and hotel for the recipient.
You can also go to Viator and book a fun tour or activity for the recipient to do when they’re in Canada. For example a helicopter flight over Niagra Falls or whale watching tours.
And lastly, if you are not sure which type of activity the recipient likes, you can also go for the Viator gift card; The Global Experiences Card.
#2 Canadian outdoor clothes
Canada is home to many great outdoor and winterwear fashion brands. One of those is Canada Goose. A great brand with high-quality outdoor clothing, such as the men’s rain jacket.
But really all items from Canada Goose will make great Canadian-made gifts.
#3 Map of Canada
Maps of Canada are great Canadian gifts for people’s homes. The two options I liked the most were the illustrated print of Canada you can see in the photo and a personalized map of Canada.
The personalized map is a great wedding gift for people who got engaged or married in Canada. But also for people who simply love Canada. Because you can completely customize the map.
#4 Canadian maple leaf waffle maker
Are you looking for the best Canadian gifts for people who love waffles? (And come on, who doesn’t love waffles!). Then this waffle maker in the shape of the Canadian maple leaf is the perfect gift.
Did you know that Canadian eat about 2,65 times more waffles than people from other countries?
Yeah, apparently the Canadians love waffles. (source).

Ice hockey is the official national sport of Canada, and also one of the most popular sports.
So if you are looking for gifts from Canada for sports fans, a jersey of the national ice hockey team is the gift you need.
#6 Tim Hortons coffee
If you are looking for typical gifts from Canada for coffee lovers, this package of Tim Hortons’ ground coffee is the gift you need.
Tim Hortons (or as the locals say: Tim’s or Timmies) is the most popular coffee, donut, and other food restaurant chain in Canada. It’s a bit comparable to Dunkin’ Donuts or Starbucks.
So basically all items from Timmies will make great gifts from Canada.
The package I selected is a medium roast ground caffeine-free coffee. So it’s perfect for people who love to drink coffee in the evening, but who still want to have a good night’s rest.
