With police expecting hundreds of thousands of people to flood downtown Ottawa-Gatineau, these are the streets to avoid driving around.

On July 1, many customers will be leaving LeBreton Flats at the same time. Lines will be indicated with signage and staff. Other motorists can drive through, but cannot park, and people can roll or walk in. The Champlain and Macdonald-Cartier bridges are the two Ottawa-Gatineau bridge options for drivers. Consider Ottawa's Friday forecast as well: a mix of sun and cloud and high of 29 C, with humidity making it feel like the mid-30s at its peak. People are asked to leave extra time, expect delays and consider free public transit July 1 to improve traffic flow.

Ottawa's police chief is encouraging people to visit downtown Ottawa and LeBreton Flats to celebrate Canada Day, promising it will be a "safe environment.".

There will be no on-street parking or stopping on roads in the control zone. "All vehicles found failing to observe the no-stopping zones will be ticketed and towed.

On Wednesday, officers stopped a small convoy of vehicles in the area of Pinecrest Road and Hwy. 417 and several tickets were issued. There will be no on-street parking or stopping on roads in the control zone. "We are looking forward to joining the celebrations tomorrow night. Just to feel the energy."

We make sure that we stay on legal grounds because that's very important as a police service," Bell said. "We're comfortable with the posture we're taking and the actions officers are taking, and it's all in the name that we ensure public safety and we can have a good, festive Canada Day." This is a festival.

As well, Bell said authorities are prepared “to enter public and private property on behalf of the property owner to remove anyone attempting to occupy or set up structures.” COVID-19 forced celebrations to be virtual instead, in 2020 and 2021. “This is necessary to support our ability to swiftly control the core for public safety reasons or support the city’s vehicle control zone,” he said. That lawful traffic will include “residential and business traffic, as well as pedestrians, cyclists and public transit,” according to City of Ottawa bylaw services. To enforce the zone, police have set up barricades, heavy equipment and police vehicle check points to “filter lawful traffic onto those streets.” It’s all part of an effort to prevent a repeat of the three-week truck convoy demonstration by anti-governmental and anti-vaccine individuals that police as well as federal and municipal officials have called an “occupation.”

In Sechelt, Mr. Feshchuk never used to pay attention to Canada Day. “It was just another day on the calendar to me,” he said. In Thunder Bay, too, the city has decided to skip the fireworks and focus on a reconciliation theme. “Now, we are weaving together a new narrative that we are all one and should celebrate as one.” But doing so hasn’t come without controversy, a constant bedfellow of Canada Day since its inception as Dominion Day in 1879.

A Nova Scotia municipality won't stage a Canada Day parade due to high costs and dwindling support. There are other similar stories across the country.

Last year, many cities opted to cancel Canada Day events after the discovery of unmarked graves at sites of former residential schools. The Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo will be hosting its Canada Day parade. "It's evolved over the years to what we had right up until just prior to COVID." Banff, Alta., made the decision to replace its parade with a day of activities and performances. A new requirement for federal funding that guarantees the event will happen prompted Jeffery to pull the plug on the event last fall, he said.
