The Canada Day website encourages Canadians to celebrate Canada Day in their own way.
“The pathway we take on Canada Day 2022 shines a light on people in Canada, as well as on Canadian diversity, inclusion and youth. Wherever you are, take part in July 1 activities and celebrate what makes you proud!” says the Canada Day website.
This Canada Day, celebrate with a family get-together or by attending festivities across the country. Whether you want a fun night at home with family or would like to join a larger celebration, Canada Day 2022 has options for everyone.
Have the whole family over for a classic Canada Day BBQ.
Nothing says Canada Day family get together like dinner on the barbeque. Whether you have a tried and tested BBQ you love, or a new one with all the bells and whistles, grilling some family favorites is the core of a great Canada Day family get-together. Cook some Canadian-themed food like sliders, grilled salmon tacos, and grilled portobello mushrooms for the vegetarian in your family. Add bacon and maple syrup to the already Canadian classic drink, the Caesar.
