People of the Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island hold “birthday” parties for their provinces on the first Monday of August. Huge birthday cakes are prepared and distributed. Other events include communal meals, parades, sporting activities and firework displays.
It is important to note that Natal Day is held on the first Monday of August in Nova Scotia each year, but the date can vary in Halifax from year to year, usually in August or July.
So Party on my fellow Maritimers!!
