July 1st
Canada Day is the national holiday of Canada commemorating the anniversary of the Confederation of Canada in 1867. This date marks the day when the British North America Act (now the Constitution Act, 1867) united three separate colonies—the Province of Canada (now Ontario and Quebec), Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick—into a single Dominion within the British Empire, named Canada.
A big thanks to our head operator Pat who did a wonderful job setting up the firework show! Pat designed a stable platform to ensure the safety of all...
Here's Sean and Rowan hauling the huge load down to the boats, so we can start the show. Redden's Camps generously contributed so the show could be even more spectacular.
Setting the fireworks off from the dock on Sean and Shawna's island! Mark and Pat get ready and....
