Victoria, BC
The Canada Day fireworks in the Inner Harbour are over, which means summer has begun. The next big Victoria summer event is the Saanich Strawberry Festival. Held every year at beautiful Beaver Lake, the Strawberry Festival features plenty of family-friendly activities, and plenty of strawberries and cream.
Kootenay Rockies
