Day is Tuesday July 1, 2008, and will be filled with Canada Day parades,
citizenship courts welcoming new Canadians, children's festivals, birthday
cakes, singalongs, music events and celebrities, and grand fireworks.
Canada Day celebrations are held throughout the province of Ontario, and
many of our member properties have special events and activities with
overnight vacation package getaways.
Some of the most memorable Canada Day celebrations involve a trip to the
"beach" where the cool freshwaters at Ontario
beaches will be waiting.
Canada Day as we know it has only been celebrated for 25 years, since
1982, when it replaced Dominion Day, which was established by statute
in 1879.
The first July 1 holiday to celebrate the "formation of the union
of the British North America provinces" took place in 1868 one year
after confederation.
Today Canada Day Celebrations are held throughout the province of Ontario,
and many of our member properties have special events and activates with
overnight vacation package getaways.
Some of the most memorable Canada Day celebrations involve a trip to the
"beach" and Ontario beaches
are plentiful throughout the province.
A list of communities, towns, villages and cities hosting special Canada
Day Events.
