Coming soon: Canada Day

Since this little blog always offered a bit more than just my pure canadian adventures but also a bit of general information and education I wanna continue this tradition by giving you an understanding of the Canada Day, canadas national day, which is celebrated on July 1st (this friday).

The Canada Day goes back to 1867 when on the first July the Dominion of Canada came into act which united the three british territories Canada (todays southern parts of Ontario and Quebec), Nova Scotia and New Brunswick (it seems that we Braunschweigers have always been first here).
In 1879 the holiday was created as Dominion Day and changed into Canada Day in 1982.

I'm looking forward to this since it is said to be celebrated very patriotic and entertaining.
