The folks are Market Square are already preparing for Canada’s 151st birthday next month.
The festivities begin on June 21st with an Aboriginal Day celebration called Voices of Tomorrow.
Committee Chair Heather Peterson tells us Canada Day festivities start off early with Art in the Park and the People Parade down King street.
“When that flag goes up, I have goosebumps already. We had over 1500 in the parade last year and we people from all over the world and it’s magnificent” Peterson said.

The Senior’s Tea will be held on June 26th in the Market Square atrium and on June 30th, the 14th annual Canada Day Countdown takes over the boardwalk with music from Port Cities, the Tackies and Busty and the Bass.
