Canada Day

P.A. comes together to celebrate Canada’s 157th birthday

Jul 1, 2024 | 5:29 PM

Prince Albert’s Kinsmen Park was packed with residents donned in red, white, and maple leaves.

Hundreds of people came out to the Canada Day celebrations on Monday afternoon which featured a little something for everyone, including food vendors and booths, bingo, live entertainment, and games and activities for the kids, like face painting.

The event at the park was put on by the Royal Canadian Legion #2 and also featured a Canada Day Cash Draw, which included prizes of $1000, $2000, and $3000.

Festivities at the park run from 11:00 a.m. to around 4:30 p.m., but the party doesn’t stop there. Canada Day events continue into the evening down at the riverbank where there, it’s a multicultural celebration.
