Tell me I’ve fallen for an April Fool’s joke [“Canada 150 party to coincide with June concert,” March 8].
Canada 150 celebrations are being moved to accommodate what? Music concerts? PRISMA is a very worthwhile endeavour, but it is not reason enough to change the celebration of our 150th anniversary. There appeared to be no public input into the decision. Just a fait accompli.
Let’s move Christmas to July when the weather is nicer. Why have set dates for any holiday if they are so easily ignored?
I have resided here for more than 12 years and have noticed a rather poor day of celebrations for July 1 in the past. I will give Victoria my money this year and celebrate with likeminded Canadians.
