firework displays and ceremonies for new Canadian citizens（公民）.The celebrations often have apatrioticmood. Canada’s national flag, a symbol for Canada Day, can be seen everywhere and a lot of people paint their faces red and white, which are Canada’s national colors. The celebrations in Ottawa, Canada’s capital city, are especially grand and exciting.
