I HOPE YOU CELEBRATE AND HAVE A GREAT CANADA DAY

Port Coquitlam, where I live, every year hosts a series of wonderful celebrations of our National Day.
Port Coquitlam Celebrates Canada Day, and every year I join the thousands of others in Castle Park to watch the Fireworks, I invite you to join our wonderful community salute Canada Day.  If you are not in the area, I recommend you find out what your community is doing and join in on the celebrations. We live in the best country in the world and we should be celebrating this fact.  Events listed Below
