Canada Day in Kelowna has ended for another year and, as always, has produced many害羞草研究所檃 good time, many害羞草研究所檃 spent $20s and much害羞草研究所檃 time for reflection on the good and bad aspects of Canada. Here害羞草研究所檚 a recap:

1. Andrew Scheer strolls through town (8:00 p.m.)

Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer along with local MP candidate Tracy Gray took a hike through town with a flurry of supporters during a concert right before the annual fireworks.

3. This guy dancing (who knows, on a boat)

This guy was fired up on Canada Day, sporting the ultimate boat-bro outfit, jubilating and performing what the chimichanga would look like if it was a dance move and not a Mexican dish.

4. Incredible rendition of O害羞草研究所機anada to officially kickoff Canada Day (12:30 p.m. at Prospera Place)

Two musicians stood before the crowd at Prospera Place and performed a bi-lingual rendition of O害羞草研究所機anada with an acoustic guitar. One singer sung in French, the other English and the two would switch between the languages with ease.

Official Canada Day ceremonies began with a bilingual rendition of O'Canada!

5. Kelowna害羞草研究所檚 cake cutting (1 p.m. at Prospera Place)

Kelowna害羞草研究所檚 celebratory cake-cutting ceremony took place just after words from local politicians, including Mayor Colin Basran and MP Stephen Fuhr. However, there may have been a larger crowd waiting for the cake than listening to the remarks. Lucky for this lady, she got there before everyone else did.

9. Indigenous mural released (all day at Highway 3 and Cawston Avenue)

The University of British Columbia Okanagan and partners painted a mural last year and raised it on July 1. It is meant to remind Canadians that the country害羞草研究所檚 birthday does not mean the same thing to everyone.

10. Dog brushes its teeth害羞草研究所� with some help

Every dog needs clean teeth on Canada Day. They are destined to go for a walk and visit other dogs and they certainly can害羞草研究所檛 have bad breath. This owner understands a dog害羞草研究所檚 needs better than most.
