Get up into the Canadian Rockies. There are climbs, of course, but most are fairly gradual. You just settle in and ride. With a month to play with, my suggestion would be to look into a route in BC and Alberta.
If you really want to stay on the east coast, my inclination would be to cycle from Montreal up into the Maritimes.
