How can you enjoy Canada Day Celebrations this year while respecting government regulations? Our colourful and tasty answer is a Canada Day Parade of Homes, followed by a free delicious summer treat for the kids – their choice of gelato, sorbet or ice cream from Pierre-Olivier Ferry’s Atelier culinaire with its mouth-watering Les Boules Glacées de Métis-sur-Mer. That’s as long as you participate, of course, and while supplies last (if they run out, kids will get another gift of appreciation).
This fall, Heritage Lower St. Lawrence will conduct a consultation of the English speaking community in the region to get to know the community, to better understand their needs, and to guide our offer of services and programs for local English speaking communities. Heritage needs your input!
