In some parts of Canada such as Ontario, the autumn colours have been particularly stunning, unlike in British Columbia, where the unseasonably hot conditions are contributing to muted colours.

Regardless of the location, CBC's photojournalists, video producers and others were there to capture the fall foliage across the country.
