Canada 150th: Parliament Hill Celebration Spectacular Fireworks Show

By Alistair Reign, July 3, 2017. Alistair Reign News Blog.

Happy birthday fellow citizens! We celebrated 150 years as the country known as Canada. Our government threw a huge party up on Parliament Hill, and wrapped it up that evening with 20 minutes of dazzling fireworks. I have added swing music, making the experience even more exciting! I watched this video on my TV, with a great sound system – I felt empowered by Canadian pride.

You can also watch Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Canada Day speech from Parliament Hill in our Watch The News section.
