July 1 is the birthday of the great party, and at the same time it is Canada's national day, a wonderful fate. This day is the biggest festival of the year in Canada, and the whole country celebrates and celebrates together!
On July 1, 1867, the British North American Treaty of Canada's Dominion Territory united the three British territories in North America into a single federation, including the provinces of Canada (present-day Ontario and southern Quebec), Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Since then, a new country has been born, but unlike others, Canada is still a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, that is, a semi-sovereign state, with no president, only a prime minister, and the top leader is still the British royal family.
July 1, 1879, was officially established as an official holiday, originally known as Dominion Day, in honor of the Dominion of Canada, which represented the political union. It wasn't until October 1982 that a bill was passed that officially designated Canada Day.
This day is also a public holiday across Canada, fireworks shows across the country, BBQ, outdoor music festivals, concerts, large-scale theatrical performances and many other colorful celebrations, people hold maple leaf flags, painted maple leaf graffiti, wear maple leaf-themed elements of clothing, and family and friends go out on the street together, the whole country is immersed in a sea of joyful and festive maple leaves~
Unlike in the past, Canada's population has exceeded 41 million this year, and in the face of the sudden increase in the number of new immigrants, runaway housing prices, inflation, thunderous wages and other aspects, a large-scale demonstration of "Take Back Canada" is quietly brewing!
The time is set on July 1, the National Day, which is of great significance to Canadians, and it is intended to oppose the current immigration policy! Thousands of enthusiastic responses were sparked, and many Canadians expressed their support and intention to participate, but the information has been banned by the forum and has not been reported by the mainstream media, but the relevant content has been placed on the official website of "Retake Canada", and it has been confirmed that there will be marches in seven cities including Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary on that day.
