This museum offers a comprehensive history of Canada from the beginnings to present day. Honestly, if you wanted to read everything, it would probably take three days to go through the museum. We spent about 4 hours there. The first floor is dedicated to the native 'first nation' people, and has exhibits on their tools and clothing, etc. The second floor is for exhibits that change periodically. The third and fourth floor includes the history from the European settlers through modern day Canada. It talked about the formation of Canada, and building of railroads, and other formative events. As someone from the US, there was a lot I didn't know about Canada, and found it quite interesting. On the fourth floor there were exhibits that covered topics such as Quebec separation efforts, as well as what it is like being the "neighbor to the US" which I found to be among the most interesting of the exhibits.
