Ron Taylor Publisher of Ontario Travel North says, "Maple syrup is one of the driving forces that remind all Canadians, who we are, where we live, and how good that first taste of boiled sap-- tonic called Maple Syrup. I can feel a fresh bounce of spring, as I contemplate putting the winter boots away."
