Canada on the Move: A Civic Celebration in the Heart of Old Montreal

MONTREAL, June 26, 2025 /CNW/ - A brand-new event will kick off this year's Canada Day celebrations in Montreal: Canada on the Move.

A Symbolic and Unifying Route

From Place d'Armes to the Clock Tower Quay, the public is invited to walk 1.2 km in a lively atmosphere, led by musicians and percussionists. Each province and territory of Canada will be represented by a cultural totem, highlighting the country's diversity and richness.

A Moment of Unity to Launch the Celebration

The gathering will begin at 11:30 a.m. with the distribution of small Canadian flags. A short opening ceremony will take place at noon, with the participation of Anthony Horng and invited delegates. The walk will begin at 12:30 p.m., arriving at the main celebration site at the Clock Tower Quay by 1:00 p.m.—just in time to witness the ceremonial salute marking the official start of Canada Day.

An Invitation to All
