With the promise of sunny weather, this Canada Day could shape up to be the best one yet. The July 1 holiday commemorates the official signing of the British North America Act in 1867. It was first celebrated with fireworks, military displays, and musical entertainment. Just 147 years later, Canadians still celebrate the statutory holiday with the same muster. Plenty of events are scheduled across the North Shore, including a celebration at Waterfront Park, fireworks in the Burrard Inlet, and a parade.
