Kingston, Ontario
Windsor, Nova Scotia be damned, the birthplace of Canada’s most beloved sport has always been Kingston, Ontario. The game can be traced all the way back to the 1840s when a 23-year-old British soldier referenced hockey in his diary.
Kingston’s contribution to hockey didn’t end in the 1840s though. Today, the Kingston Frontenacs of the Canadian Hockey League entertain local fans and have been since 1989. The historic hockey town has also produced premier hockey stars like Doug Gilmour, Kirk Muller, and Mike Smith.
