Getting from one end of Canada to the other takes days using any other means of transport than by air. In addition, the harsh Canadian winters in the north and the interior of the country can make driving and other types of public transport difficult. There are dozens of airports dotted throughout Canada’s 13 provinces, many of which have international access.The most extensive transportation network in Canada is provided by bus. Greyhound Canada is the national carrier operating routes from Ottawa westward, with many provincial and regional bus lines filling in the gaps. Canada's railway has traditionally been the link between communities in Canada and for many it still is. There are six urban rapid transit systems operating in Canada: The Toronto Subway, the Montreal Metro, the Vancouver SkyTrain, The C-Train in Calgary, the Edmonton Light Rail Transit and the O-Train.
