Canada Day Festivities


[Flea Market Uptown-----Photo by Dave Briggs]

Flea Market and a people parade........just two of the events to highlight an activity filled day to celebrate the country's birthday in Saint John. The boardwalk has plenty for the entire family including a giant bounce ride for the children, basketball, and sidewalk chalk competition. The people parade gets started at eleven on King Street and finishes up with the flag raising ceremony at City Hall.
If it rains, the events will be moved inside to the Trade and Convention Center. Quispamsis, Rothesay, Grand Bay-Westfield, St. Martins and the all of the outlying municipalities have plenty on the go as well. For details, check their websites. As for the fireworks in Saint John tonight.....they are go at 10:15pm unless the fog rolls in.
