WINTER - Snow and ice, skiing, ice skating & sledding and the New Years Polar Bear Dip SPRING - First sign of spring, the Robin. The Monarch Migration and the Ottawa Tulip Festival. Crop planting and gardens. SUMMER - Aurora Borialis, open sport cars, soccer, backyard get-togethers, camping and huge bonfires. Swimming and water parks. FALL - Harvest festivals, pumpkins and more pumpkins, trees blazing with color, geese migration and Halloween. So proud to be Canadian ..... the true North strong and free. (and we are very polite too)
