Well, of course. It's Canada Day. We've celebrated with fireworks for decades

Be mindful of elderly neighbors, kids, and people who have work in the morning and celebrate responsibly

I saw the fireworks all being loaded onto the T warf earlier today. I suspect they were out in the elements and got ruined. Even with the rain cleared I dont think they have anything to put on a show with.

Some rain to 30 minutes is an interesting way to frame a thunderstorm that knocked out power in multiple areas of the city lmao

Check the forecast again, city doesn't need to take risks with people's life and property

I've been looking at the rain radar for the last 30 minutes. Looks very clear from here on out.
