Happy Canada Day!
From coast to coast, Canada embodies diversity, unity, and resilience. At the iconic Parliament Hill in Ottawa, the heart of Canada's capital, the spirit of this grand nation soars as thousands gather to commemorate the country's confederation on Canada Day. This national celebration was first held in 1867, then became a statutory holiday in 1879, and officially was renamed Canada Day from Dominion Day in 1982. In Ottawa and across the country, families enjoy picnics, children play, and the night sky lights up with awe-inspiring fireworks. The vibrant red and white flag with the iconic maple leaf adorns the streets as citizens and visitors embrace the spirit of unity and multiculturalism.
