Happy Canada Day!

Brit here (sorry about, well, everything)- how do you guys celebrate?

Whatever you get up to, hope you enjoy ๐ŸŽ‰

Mostly spend time with family and friends. Usually there are big gatherings in most cities or towns and fireworks. Do you have anything similar (big national holiday)?

[-] wildeaboutoskar@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Sounds great! We don't celebrate our national day to that extent (which I'm fine with personally), we don't get the day off or fireworks.

We have fireworks and get togethers for Bonfire night on November 5th, but it's not a day off. We have bank holidays spread throughout the year but they're tied loosely to the church

Interesting, thanks for explaining

Usually it's a long weekend for us. Weather usually is good so something outdoors with friends here. BBQ and Sun for the weekend!
