Canada pulls out all the stops to woo more Chinese tourists

The commission released a similar film last June.

"(Last year's) film received positive feedback," Galpin says.

More than 22 million people have viewed the 2014 video on major Chinese streaming websites, such as Youku, Pptv, Sohu and LeTV, the tourism commission says.

Authorities have been developing routes targeting Chinese.

The highlight is a 15-day voyage from northwestern Canada's Nunavut to the Arctic Circle. The cruise only runs in August, when the ice clears. Tourists can see polar animals and learn about the Inuit community.

Other routes feature an 11-night Post Canadian Rockies Tour that combines voyages around Vancouver Island to Victoria with inland tours over the Canadian Rockies through Banff and Lake Louise to Calgary.

Another voyage hops between the St. Lawrence River's 1,000 Islands.

In Quebec, the 14-night Snowbird Migration Cruise enables passengers to witness one of nature's greatest ornithological spectacles.

Alberta's tourism bureau has developed 35 routes for Chinese tourists this year, including those through Waterton Lakes National Park, which is celebrated for its biodiversity.

The number of flights between China and Canada is set to increase.
