Yes, my American peeps, it's Victoria Day.
You know, I rarely learned about Canada while studying in the US. Quite sad even though Canadian history is boring. |

For some reason it reminds me of Victoria's Secret when I read it.

Ever wonder what Victoria's Secret was?
It was the man she was sleeping w/ behind everyone else's back. Or something along those lines. We seriously spent 3 class periods discussing this in AP US History. His first sentence that came out of his mouth that day was, WERE GOING TO TALK ABOUT SEX. And everyone cheered. |

Is this a real holiday that people celebrate, or is it like...Columbus Day?
Either way, Happy Victoria Day! (jeeez that rhymes  )

^ You don't really "celebrate" it in the Halloween, Christmas sense. The only celebration I can think of is the Victoria Day parade.
Um, let's see...isn't Victoria Day only celebrated in BC? Or am I just totally ignorant about Canadian holidays? See, I figure since Victoria's the capital of BC. Queen V has a lot to do with the rest of the country, though...oh, I'm so confused. Anyway, I'm late for it anyway. Although I did get to miss a day of school, woohoo. |

I saw and heard fireworks in my neighborhood! =) I think there were fireworks near the Toronto harbour, so it's probably not limited to Victoria, BC. I guess there was more celebration there in BC? I'm glad I got a day off.
