About this word search
Snowmobile has a Quebec origin story. Joseph-Armand Bombardier of Valcourt built snow vehicles in the 1930s and launched the small personal Ski-Doo in 1959, which changed winter travel in the North. Seaplane carries Canadian weight too, since float planes still link lakes and coastal communities that no road reaches.
Expect words heading every way across this large puzzle, reversed spellings among them. Kayak reads the same in both directions, which makes it a curious find. Start with CONTAINERSHIP, then look for DOUBLEDECKER, which has lost its hyphen.
Older students can rank the list by speed and then check a few guesses online.
