When we lived in Detroit, it was really fun during the first week of July when Windsor and Detroit celebrated the Canadian/American Freedom Festival at the riverfront.
Question? Was Canada Day orginally called Dominion Day? I seem to remember that, but it was over twenty years ago.

Yeah, the fireworks were last wednesday but I missed them - i was out of town.
tomorrow I plan on watching the Canada Day parade here, although it is pretty small. Then on to grab some free birthday cake at the river. That's one big cake!!
July 4th I'm going to one of the music concerts at the river - they've got a lot of good music acts this year compared to the past - but they started charging
And, I do believe it was Dominion Day since we are officially the Dominion of Canada...but that was before my time so I guess I'm not 100% certain.
I'll be sure to wear my Canada handkerchief (sp?) tomorrow(well today I mean since it's already 1 am)!
Maybe I'll drag out my Canada trivia game and see if anyone wants to play with me (no one ever does, since I always win)
