Quebec was the first, non-American city, and coincidentally, we stopped there the same week they were celebrating their 400th anniversary. They had lots of street performers, a music festival and all types of other fun stuff. Also in Canada, they have an Indian tribe called the Inuit and all throughout Quebec they have stores that sell things the made by the Inuits, like carvings, hats, trinkets and mini totem poles. I really liked the stone carvings and I bought a traditional medicine bag with special items in it, like a small carved turquoise turtle that is supposed to bring me luck.
About the street performers I mentioned earlier, they were the most amazing people there (in my opinion). There were magicians, musicians, jugglers, stilt walkers and moving statues (now all we need is a bearded lady!).
Here's a picture of me with one of the moving statues:
