I’ve been contemplating getting a hybrid for years. This is the one recommended at MEC.
Ghost Panamao X 3 Bicycle (Unisex) – CAD$725 (US$582)
1 year free adjustments and minor maintenance. Disk brakes.
Leave a comment if you have an opinion on this bike. Or have an alternative.
Dave Adlard suggested the 2015 Motobecane Elite Adventure for US$400.

Looks really nice. And sensible. 😄
