Our picnic is going to be on the grounds of the Embassy itself and so, given the fact that all government offices are closed on the actual July 1st holiday, we'll be celebrating a few days early, on Thursday the 26th of June.
Fellow Canadian and fabulous vocalist Tonia Szkurhan will be singing pop hits, classic oldies, selections from famous contemporary Canadian singer-songwriters... and of course our national anthem!
Bring your own blanket, remember your ID for security access... and don't forget to wear red and white!
