I am visiting Canada on a Road Trip, I am entering at Niagara Falls, what are good cities and sites to see? Aquariums, Zoos, Casinos, buildings, museums? Any personal info would help out tremendously.

How far are you planning to drive?
National Parks are always great.

Stop and look at the Niagara Falls from the US side, then cross and stay on the Canadian side, preferably at the high rise hotel next to the fall such as The Casino (two birds with one stone!).
Then head north and stop at Niaga-on-the-lake which has historical buildings from the revolutionary period.
Then to Toronto (see zoo ref. below). If you like The Lord of The Ring, there is a play there.
Make your way to Montreal. There are plenty of interesting buildings in the old town. We enjoyed the Museum of Fine Arts there. The Flower and Garden show was great. Visit the Olympic Park and especially Insectarium and Chinese section in the Botanical garden.
End your trip at Quebec City. The Old town was really neat. You can visit the Chateau Frontenac without staying there.
Niagara Aquarium sounds good (see review below).
There is also Marineland on the Canadian side not far from the falls.
We had fun and you certainly will as well.
Enjoy.

I am not from that part of Canada but Ontario and Quebec has lots to do. You could start with Niagara falls then head towards Toronto which has everything. A trip to Ottawa and Montreal are essential. There are Casinos in Quebec and some in Ontario but only know the one across the river from Ottawa. Ottawa has museums galore like the Museum of civilization.

Well, if you're entering from Niagra Falls, you have to see the falls. You could go to Casino Niagra, which is probably the most popular Casino in all of Canada. Take the QEW and take a few days in Toronto. Toronto is the largest city in Canada. There's pleanty to do their, like go up the CN Tower, the tallest free standing building in the world. You could go to the Eaton's Center for shopping. Paramount Canada's Wonderland is another good stop (a good amusment park in Vaughn). If you plan on travelling some more you can go to Elora for trails and some really nice scenery. You can take a trip in and around Niagra on the Lake and stop at one of many wineries. There's lots to do.

TORONTO, MONTREAL, QUEBEC CITY
I suggest you skip all of it and go to Montreal and Quebec city. Trust me Montreal is the oldest city in North America and older than the US or Canada. You will have a great time. There is a casino, a bunch of museums, festivals all summer, amazing parties, an old montreal, a china town, it has old architecture and a port, and you can drive up to the country if you want to get out of the city... go to Mont Tremblant or Mont Orford. Its French speaking and a real cool cultural experience. Try this beer called:
La Fin Du Monde and another one called Maudite.
Then go to Quebec city. After that you can go to Tadoussac and see wales on the St. Lawrence.
Trust me man Ontario sucks.
