For those of you (like me) who want to plan their day, here’s the latest on the 19th Annual Neighbours’ Together on Canada Day. It takes place in Riverdale Park East, northeast of Broadview Avenue and Gerrard. The event is free and largely Chinese including a roast pig. Everyone is welcome. The schedule is subject to change but this will give you an idea of what to expect, thanks to Valerie Mah, Emcee.
