Frequently referred to as "Canada's birthday", particularly in the popular press,[1][2][3] the occasion marks the joining of the British North American colonies of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Province of Canada into a federation of four provinces (the Province of Canada being divided, in the process, into Ontario and Quebec) on July 1, 1867. Canada became a kingdom in its own right on that date,[4][5][6] but the British Parliament kept limited rights of political control over the new country that were shed by stages over the years until the last vestiges were surrendered in 1982 when the Constitution Act patriated the Canadian constitution.

No, nothing like that. It's the start of the NHL free agency, today at noon. I might not listen to CnR today...
Well, ok. It is their "4th of July".
Detroit and Windsor (the Canadian city right across the river) always do a joint firework thing. But the dumb part of it, is that they did it overa week ago. They always do it a week or 2 before either holiday.

Canada pretty much has the same holidays as USA, they just change the name and the date so they don't look silly for copying us.

Don't worry.
This is the last big 'event' for hockey until camps start opening up around September.

At least they moved thanksgiving to be like a month away from ours.
And Boxing Day, what the heck is that all about?
