807 - Happy 146


Greg Moore, Mayor of Port Coquitlam, was on hand for Canada Day celebrations.  I drew a quick caricature of him lighting off the official Canada Day fireworks.  Port Coquitlam has one of the largest professional fireworks diplays for the Lower Mainland, sited in beautiful Citadel Park. 

Unfortunately, the Mayor doesn't get to light the fireworks himself, although one would think that would be a natural perk for the position.  All the explosives are handled in a safe manner by trained experts. 

Happy 146th Birthday, Canada!
