Isn’t it wonderful that Canada Day is back to being live and in-person! Oh how I have missed the parades, the food and the gatherings. Canada Day long weekend is a staple of Summer. A time for celebration, bbq’s, pool parties, fireworks and beverages. So what is his appening in the Fraser Valley this Canada Day?
