What do you remember

I remember the Zoot Suiters during the 2nd world war , they used to hang at the Pavillion,with the zippers on their slacks, or pants , down around the ankles, they were draft dodgers , or did not want to go to war seems to me , am I right ,  now come on all you pals, what do you remember about  Verdun, lets keep this going so as to keep our interests up . Have a wonderful day Jimmy

About the next Canada Day Parade...

I'm hoping to go to Canada at some point this summer and was checking the calendar here to find that Canada Day  (July 1st) falls on a Thursday this year.
Can anyone tell me if Montreal will hold their Canada Day Parade ON July 1st and people don't work on that day but go to work on the Friday...or if it will be recognized on the Friday instead to make it a long weekend and the parade will be on the Friday or Saturday instead too?
It'll help in my pla-making to know.
Thanks!
Luv, Sharon
