The top 10 Canada Day fireworks in Toronto for 2014

Canada Day Fireworks Toronto 2014Canada Day Fireworks in Toronto are typically the showiest of year, and 2014 has plenty of options spread across the city. Along with the hundreds of small community celebrations in parks and and backyards around town (get your fireworks here), Canada Day witnesses a swell of official ceremonies, including what is always a hugely popular event at the Harbourfront in Toronto.


Of particular note is that this particular celebration goes down on June 30th, the day before the official holiday. That's a really good thing if you plan on taking psychedelic drugs and want to use the next day to recover. It's also good if you have kids that will be staying up past their bedtime. Everybody wins!
