Indigenous advocate says pause of Canada Day fireworks in Calgary was requested last year

The City of Calgary’s decision to refrain from holding a large fireworks display this Canada Day — in part because of cultural sensitivities — is two years too late, according to one Indigenous advocate.

On Thursday the city said it would forgo the usual July 1 fireworks display and instead have an enhanced pyrotechnic show on the main stage at Fort Calgary during the evening’s final act.

What graves?
