It's British Columbia's 150 birthday today! (Yeah that's how young Canada is) The first monday in August is a holiday long weekend, and today there are special celebrations here in B.C's capital city, Victoria (where I live). On the lawns of our Provincial Legislature buildings will be a free concerts all day. About 50 thousand people will be there and the day ends with the folowwing artists. Burton Cummings, Colin James, Sarah McLaughlin, and closing with Feist, and then a firework show over the inner harbour. A stunning setting and most enjoyable day out. We will be planting our bums down somewhere around 3pm and taking in the sights and sounds.

Here's what the area looks like!
Wish you were all here!

Yeah, not very old are we, especially when you compare our history to that of the UK and Europe or the middle east! Canada's Birthday is July 1st, and the year Canada officially became a country was 1867. We are a very young counrty. 150 years ago Victoria was a not much more than a trading post on the west coast called "Fort Victoria".

Here's a taste of their music if you don't know all of these Canadian artists.

Burton Cummings

Colin James

Sarah Mc Laughlin

Feist
