Werewolves
Werewolf Hunting was at one point legal, popular for collecting pelts.
In Canada, an anti-werewolf group called WALI (Wizards Against the Lycanthrope Invasion) has successfully carried out an attack at the Auror Academy on 12th October 2010. This resulted in several casualties including the death of Lexus Dale's husband.
Quidditch
Canada is home to three world-renowned Quidditch teams: the Haileybury Hammers of Haileybury, Ontario, the Moose Jaw Meteorites of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, and the Stonewall Stormers of Stonewall, Manitoba.
The Meteorites were almost forced to disband in the 1970s because of their tradition of celebrating victories by flying over nearby towns with sparks trailing from the ends of their broomsticks. Since then, the team had limited this practise to the Quidditch pitch, and, as such, Meteorite games were still a popular tourist attraction for wixes.
The Canadian National Team won the 1990 Quidditch World Cup against Scotland by thirty points.
Canada even has it own version of quidditch: Canadian Quidditch.
Ministry for Magic
The Ministry has a Werewolf Capture Unit.
The Aurors have an Academy to train in.
Joseph Collins is the Canadian Ambassador to Britain.
