 Taken from my living room window this past April. After all, what would Canada Day be without a moose? This week on Romance Writers Weekly, Dani Jace says:
This is 4th of July week for those in the US, but most countries have an Independence Day of similar celebration. What was your tradition growing up? Fireworks? Trip to the beach? Cookout? As an adult, what’s your favorite Independence Day activity or what would you love to do? It is July 1st as I write this, which means Canada is celebrating its 151st Birthday! The biggest celebration in our city takes place at our biggest park, on the banks of the Fraser River. It’s hosted by the Immigrant and Multicultural Services Society, which I’ve always thought was a true reflection of how our country has embraced—and been embraced by—those who choose to live here. There will be performances by groups representing First Nations as well as those ethnicities who have more recently come to Canada. And the food! All sorts of food from all around the world! My family doesn’t have any hard and fast traditions when it comes to Canada Day. Sometimes we go to the park, sometimes we stay home. Other years we’ve gone camping. No matter what, it’s always been a day to spend with family and friends. Next on the hop is Jenna Da Sie. Jenna has ties to both the US and Canada, so this must be a busy week for her! Check out what she as say here!
