Enright began his journey in Halifax and brought it to an end in Prince Rupert. Along the way he was joined by a number of high profile and not so well known yet Canadians, who helped him on parts of his journey across the land.
From Roch Carrier, the noted Canadian author to quickly rising Alberta politician Danielle Smith, Leader of the newly-founded Wild Rose Alliance, the guest list was diverse and touched on many aspects of Canadian life.
As the train passed through Prince George, aboriginal activist Mary Teegee joined Enright.
In addition to his guests, he spoke with Canadians from coast to coast, finding out what makes their communities special and spent time with those that keep the trains running from Nova Scotia to British Columbia.
