And what’s summer in Canada without a parade?
No—not those left-wing liberal-style “gay pride” parades which Canadians are known to describe as depressing lewd pornographic liberalism parades or gay enforcement politics parades or gay acceptance enforcement parades or liberal-left lifestyle enforcement of tolerance politics parades.
No I mean the good old-fashioned traditional Canadian summer parade —with clowns (no not liberals—just plain ole clowns!), and floats, and joyous families and kids and old folks and businesses and hot dogs and a salmon BBQ in a local park afterwards where everyone is happy!
We’ve already had our first good local traditional Canadian normal parade. Here’s some pictures:
This is some Canadian Air Force Cadets in training. They could use an equipment upgrade—maybe to an F-18 fighter jet, um, plywood scale model go-cart thingy pulled by a rope!
The local chapter of the Lions Club adopted what I think is an annoying new trend away from traditional floats, and into pretending your truck is a float. Not right! Has to be a proper float!
A local bank got it half right. It’s a float, but it’s a pirate ship theme! Re-think your theme, people!
What’s a parade without Shriners? Our local chapter celebrates with their American brethren. That ain’t liberal! (And I the only one who wonders about the Shriners and their hats and symbolism? Didn’t think so!)
Finally the state-run schools had a float, but I couldn’t help thinking how appropriate it was that they had all the kids sucking lollipops as they sat there in the back being towed around. The symbolism here was even scarier than the Shriners!
Anyway…. Ahhhh….. the good old fashioned traditional Canadian ACTUAL pride parade.
