We had fun diving in to this and learning the things that make us all different. How do you celebrate? It’s also important to remember that the 4th of July is not seen as a joyous holiday for all, especially for the black community. Please consider supporting some of the black organizations I’ve linked in the description. I hope we can all continue to educate ourselves, and be an ally.

This was a really cool episode. Way to go. Excellent job. I love it that The Canadian and American sides of Niagara Falls share the fireworks. We do that here in August. More Later. Here everyone goes to the St. Andrews which is the traditional Shiretown for Charlotte County for Canada Day. We also call it July 1st quite often, more often than other areas I am told. The day starts off with the Sea cadets and dignitaries doing the Colours ceremony. (Raising the Flags) There is a huge farmers market and entertainment. Then there is a ceremony at Kingsbrae Gardens to remember the Afghan Veterans and those that didn't come home from that conflict. At 1:00 pm there is a big parade. There is often a concert at the KIRA Amphitheater, last year it was Jimmy Rankin. At night there are huge fireworks off the wharf. There is usually over ten thousand people that come down to St. Andrews to take in the celebrations with the locals. It is an active spot. On the 4th of july everyone heads down to Eastport Maine. Canadians included. They have much the same as St. Andrews but not the big concert. They usually have a US warship in for the Fourth with tours and the crew take part in the parade in the afternoon. And at night they have huge fireworks from the wharf. This year it didn't happen but I think they may have had fireworks in Calais as we could hear fireworks from our deck that sounded too many and too big to be private. In August the Town of St. Stephen and City of Calais celebrate International Days. With activities on both sides and a parade that alternates the starting side every year that starts in one country and ends in the other. The end of the festival is a really huge set of fireworks both communities share the cost of. At one point one side shot them off and the next year the other. However someone realized the cost of fireworks is a lot less on the US side than the Canadian side. So we get more bang for the buck. Literally. You guys should come down here and experience it. it's pretty cool. I imagine nowhere near as big as it would be up there with the cities and all, but it is good do. Also Eastport does the greased pole to get the flag at the end over the cold salt water. It's a hoot to watch. And there are fishing boat races and other stuff. This year is hard because everyone is missing their friends and family so much and there were not as much for celebrations. Though they had some on the US side. You guys could try Dulse, Moxie, Pal-O-Mine bars and Blueberry whatever from both sides for that. And decide who has the best lobster. Both sides here it's the best because the Bay of Fundy is much colder than the Gulf of Maine or the Northumberland Straight. And the colder the lobster the tastier the lobster, or lobstah.... We like Hellen's Restaurant the best for a seafood meal in Machais Maine but the best Fish and Chip is probably at the Red Herring in St. Andrews. And while you guys were duking it out up there and killing each other in the War of 1812 here we had a peace treaty between our communities. though the Canadian Island of Machias Seal Island is still claimed by both sides the Canadians maintain a manned lighthouse on it while the US side does bird watching tours on it. Sorry for the novel, but I love your show and being from a truly international community it is especially more interesting. We eat basically twice the treats and junk food everyone else does and before Covid-19 crossing the border was done multiple times daily.

In Newfoundland and Labrador, July 1st is Memorial Day. It marks the Battle of Baumont-Hamel. Over 800 members of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment “went over the top” on July 1st, 1916. 68 answered roll call the next day. July 1st is like Remembrance Day. It’s appropriate then to celebrate Canada Day after noon. The provincial list of holidays says its Memorial Day. More interesting Canadian facts!

I was born and raised in Windsor. It was called the International Freedom Festival and it used to and might still be the largest fireworks display in North America. Some place in Kentucky beat it one year but, Google still says Detroit & Windsor is "one of the biggest." And, it says in 2007 the International Freedom Festival split into the Windsor Summer Fest and Detroit River Days.

For the last question, I looked it up out of curiously because I knew many players in the NHL in the US were Canadian. The website I checked said from the founding of the NHL in 1917, when all four of its teams were located to Canada, to the current-day mix of 7 Canadian and 24 American teams 44% of the players in the NHL are Canadian which is the highest % out of all countries listed from the USA, Finland, Sweden, Russia etc. So even though the US won the most Stanley Cups, Canadian born players had a big impact on that.

I'd say you are generally correct about Canada Day Joseph. Out West Canada Day is more about the extended weekend than the day of celebrations. Best time of year to camp and/or visit with family/friends. Although we all made sure to stay in Calgary for the 150 celebration a couple years back with a famous local artist playing downtown and the fireworks in the background. Was an absolutely amazing time, I wish it was something we could expect for every Canada Day.

Critical Eats Japan sent me. The quiz is neat. 73$ dollars is a little low for everyone I know. Maybe 70 on fireworks if you were being a bit cheap and then the food/drinks depends on the amount of people tbh. My family spends more like 600 because its what we celebrate the hardest besides Christmas. But then again, some people don't buy at all. Hmmm

Hey Joseph! I don't know about you but it's the May 2-4 weekend that's a big deal to me, my family and friends. July 1st, was just another excuse for fireworks, heading down to Ontario Place or Ashbridges Bay to watch a REAL fireworks show as opposed to staying at home.

Strangely enough smaller towns in Canada have bigger and better Canada celebrations. One example is Brantford ON with a midway, food trucks and all day concert from well known Canadian bands.
