Celebrate Canada this summer

30 Apr Celebrate Canada this summer

The Celebrate Canada days highlight our ethnic, linguistic, cultural and regional diversity, which helps make Canada a truly inclusive and outward-looking country.

More than summer celebrations, they are opportunities to reflect on our values, our past and our future as a society.

Let us use these days to strengthen the ties that bind us together, to create meaningful connections within our communities and to rekindle our Canadian pride as we move forward on the road to reconciliation and a better future.
