MOOSE JAW - Shortly past 10 p.m. on Canada Day, thousands gathered at their homes, vehicles, or on foot to watch the traditional Canada Day fireworks show that took place in spite of concerns that a background thunderstorm and intermittent rain might have seen the show cancelled.
The show went on at the Hamilton Flats as planned, and the tradition continues — although onlookers had to navigate through a downpour soon after the show concluded in a timely manner.
This year's display was made possible thanks to sponsorship by the Moose Jaw Kinsmen Club, the Government of Canada and the City of Moose Jaw, which each made a financial contribution to help Moose Jaw's citizens celebrate Canada.
